RNLI Fashion Show Fundraiser

Now I am back in Weston-super-Mare, there is not a whole lot to do. So hearing that there was a fashion show fundraiser for RNLI in the Unwined Bar I decided to go along. There was a good turn out with a few stalls including Stinx, Noszkay Number 5 and The Rocks jewellery. I managed to pick myself up a nice top from Noszkay Number 5 and a pair of real pearl earring for £5, which made me very happy as I have needed a new paid for ages.

You can never go wrong with pearls

All in all a lovely way to spend a Sunday afternoon.

This weeks charity shop and carboot finds in Somerset

Both sets £3.50 for 6 x teacups and saucers

In the past few weeks I have been incredibly busy with my new job, which I am loving. So unfortunately vintage hunting was put on the back burner but now have been getting back on track. I popped to Weston Hospice on Worle Highstreet on my lunch Thursday last week and what treats I found.

Cherry Doily 50p
Two lots of 6 x teacups and saucers for £3.50
Vintage teapot £3
3 pretty blue and gold teacups £1.50
4 Royal Dolton dinner plates 10p each

cute £3 teapot

Today I made a quick visit to Cheddar carboot sale and spent all of £15 on some lovely pieces, in particular my new marble side table. One of my old managers at Dew Gibbons had the best taste and she had a beautiful table in the basement (she never wanted to sell it). I managed to find an almost exact replica but the top is real marble rather than imitation… happy days.

Marble side table £5

Bottles 10p each
