I have been looking at some little ornaments in British Heart Foundation for weeks now and keep leaving them on the shelf because I don't want to collect tat, but they are gorgeous. I think subconciously I'm hoping that the next time I go in, someone will have beat me to it, then I can relax when I walk into the shop and see what else they have for sale rather than been drawn to the back of the shop.<br />Thanks for sharingChristinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15777978219814899136noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2559591055018243942.post-35155364579688379132011-11-01T10:31:17.061+00:002011-11-01T10:31:17.061+00:00Just found you through MeMe Rose(think we have the...Just found you through MeMe Rose(think we have the same idea about charity shop finds).

I mean the chaz shop where you go up an alleyway from the main road (sorry my directions are rubbish I know) and there used to be a good charity shop on the right which had closed down when I last visited then you come out onto another road and turn right (I think). It's next door to a gallery if I remember rightly.<br /><br />Make of that what you will! xxLoo xx from Jumbles and Pompomshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13570354905749566677noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2559591055018243942.post-22547760162455187902011-10-07T13:08:53.913+01:002011-10-07T13:08:53.913+01:00Blimey Missy, I don't know where to start. Lo...Blimey Missy, I don't know where to start. Love your freebies. I'm a big fan of Leigh (and its charity shops especially the v cheap one not on the main drag - do you know which one I mean?). Such a lot of china, the utility stuff is to die for. Excellent pyrex. Haven't seen the one with the lobster before. Love the ladybirds. I've got the learn to knit book but not the crochet one. Must look out for that one. Are there some good pics in it that I can drool over? You have a brilliant weekend. xxLoo xx from Jumbles and Pompomshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13570354905749566677noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2559591055018243942.post-73712762136899036852011-10-07T11:42:42.372+01:002011-10-07T11:42:42.372+01:00Wow, you sure have bought some lovely things (barg...Wow, you sure have bought some lovely things (bargain prices as well!).I can't believe that first lot was destined for the trash! Thank goodness you were there to save them :) I like the pretty pastel jugs and the rose tin. I didn't realize lady bird did a 'learn to crochet book'..is the information inside quite good for a newbie learner? I will have to keep an eye out for it when I am out at the boot sales. Thanks for sharing your purchases, I do enjoy looking at all of them :)<br />Have a great weekend!magiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03856407383929241305noreply@blogger.com
