WEEKEND LOOT

Great day at the car boot sale today! (Y-day was okay.)
The first thing I see when I entered the area is a stunning
white English Bull Terrier, of course I asked for a cuddle. 
(I miss my old EBT SO much!!!)
I think this bullie was some kind of lucky charm because
I did very well finding cool stuff.
What you see is just a fraction of what I managed to drag
home this weekend!

Wow! You sure did score. I love those vintage wicker baskets. And that blue necklace is gorgeous too.

I would love to start a baby clothes pile but my hubby doesn't like the idea of buying used clothes or shoes for myself or a future baby.

You did well!
I have to giggle about the baby clothes because I am crazy for snatching up cute ones I see. *Which has led to having about 3 or four rubbermaid bins full* So now the Mr. has said that if I am going to buy it it has to be REALLY CUTE... Like just can't pass it up cute. *I am trying my best.*
That vanity case is lovely I am always oogling them on Etsy.
I can't believe how cheap you got all this stuff for. You must be thrilled!
