Shopping

The rain is pouring, the wind is blowing so what else is there to do but shop? Don't worry I was the perfect recessionista - total cost of all items pictured ... 11 euros 50 cent! Don't you just love charity shops :o)

Polka dot lovelies

I just love the hat. I have a similar one from last year and was considering taking it apart and making my own but when you can get one this gorgeous for only 1 euro it seems a bit pointless. There's also not much need for a sun hat at the mo. Perhaps I should think of making one in oilcloth to keep off the rain instead :o)

Also got some lovely Laura Ashley'esque goodies.

Those of you with a chintz phobia look away now

L to R - curtains, lamp shade, tray.
