I did a green post yesterday. :)
Yep, another coat for little old meeeee!
My man sure did good on Saturday.
There was a lot more dresses but these once are for
me to keep, the others will end up in my shop when
I feel better.
Here we go...
Click the images for a better view.
1960's coat, 35 pence.
The coat tag is sooo cute! Do you see the poodle? :D
1960's dress, 35 pence.
The original zipper gave up after I gave it two washes,
so typical! Grr!!!
This dress is a tent on me but I do wanna try and make
it into a top, my first choise was to make it into a wiggle
dress but I don't think I'm skilled enough to alter it from
an XXL into XS.
Close up on the beading and fabric. Stunning, huh?
1960's dress with multi colored lurex , 35 pence.
This darling a stunner but it got so many small holes on
the front and I'm not sure it's gonna look good even if I
try my best to mend it, I not sure yet what to do but it
might look good as a bolero. We'll see.
Close up.
1960's dress, 35 pence.
It was badly stained but after a wash it was like
new. It looks so cool with a white elastic belt.
1960's dressing gown, 35 pence.
Not sure if I will keep this, it's so over the top and I do
like it but I doubt I will ever use it. For now it stays.
Never used and still got the original tag.
Lurex leggings, 25 pence.
A girl can't have too many lurex items.
Well, actually, gonna put my other pair in my shop.
Old flower press, 50 pence.
I've been wanting one since I was a kid but back then they
didn't come cheap and I used the phone book instead.
1950's loom, 50 pence.
Oh joy! Can't wait to make my own silly scarfs!
Vintage Pyrex bowl, £1.50.
One size bigger than the one we got earlier that week.
And it's PINK! :D

My first pie was good ,but second one the crust was too hard, had to throw it in the trash. I am working on making Buddy a Guinness cake.
BTW
love your pyrex bowl, now you have your Xmas colors pyrex bowls.
Oh my GAWWWSH That green coat is the flipping cutest! 35 pence *Seriously?!* ahhhhh jelous
(And the tag is cute)
I like the black 1960s dress too bad the zip gone and died on you. (I think it will make a cute top.)
The other dresses are very nice too.
I think you should KEEP and wear the dressing gown. I just found one with tags a few weeks ago and I am sure it till keep me warm this fall and winter. heheh
I can't wait to see the silly scarves you make.
And I AM CRAZY about your pyrex bowl.
Your man knows his stuff!
That green coat is gorgeous. I love the 1960's dressing gown the print is awesome.
That is an AMAZING haul.
Aliya: Thank you sweetie. :)
La Dama: X-mas colors? Pink? I don't do X-mas.
Let me know how that Guinness cake turn out.
Vintage Coconut: Well, it was about 33 pence, 3 items for £1. ;))
You think I should got for a top then, I think you're right, it might be more useful and I can wear it during day as a posh casual. :))
I found two booklets in the loom box and there were tond of neat stuff I wanna try to make, I'll post about it later.
