Last weekend on my usual jaunt to see my parents, I stopped off at my favourite little op shop, a weekly event for me. My daughter also met me there (think she is getting hooked too).
This is what I came home with;
A cute little velvet bag with ribbon embroidery on the front. Inside is beautiful smelling potpourri.
This scrap of lace that is quite large. I will make produce bags from it and use some for craft.
A pink cotton pillowcase to use for beeswax wraps.
And this cotton pillowcase for the same purpose.
A lovely small vintage embroidered tablecloth. I am thinking of unpicking the lace sewn around the border and add some crochet to finish it off nicely.
Loving this small sized table runner.
I always grab vintage pillowcases with embroidery on, simply because I love them.
A little girls vintage quilt cover. Love the old fashioned design. This has a few old stains that I am hoping to remove after much soaking. Any age old tips welcome.
A complete queen sized quilt set in perfect condition.
Little girls vintage Holly Hobby single quilt cover set. There were two of these. I really don't know what I am going to do with the quilt covers, I just couldn't bare to leave them there lol!
Five dollars for all of these. The little op shop is very cheap and open seven days a week. My mum volunteers in there once a week or when required. All profit goes back into the community to spend around the town.
I have freshly washed all the linen, and now just needs to be ironed.
Do you op shop? What is your favourite find?
