Alive and shopping!

I haven't gotten back to sewing yet, but I'm definitely back to shopping, especially at flea-markets and charity-shops. In fact, I did some thrifting earlier today! One of the items to come home with me was this pretty negligee...I'm not exactly sure I'll wear it (it only cost 50 cents and it's kinda fragile) but I'm thinking I might have it hanging on a wall somewhere, along with the rest of my collection.


A couple of weeks ago I also found this retro plant holder, a perfect match to my flower pot table!


I don't know if it's because it's winter now, and x-mas coming soon, but I'm having a thing for red, black and white at the moment. I wouldn't mind our whole apartment decorated in those colours, checkered floors, black sofa with red cushions, kitchen cupboards in shiny red and so on. Maybe this will be the case someday, in a couple of rooms at least. I'm gonna start with making a cute cushion out of this retro fabric, and maybe hanging something nice on the retro hanger...


Last but not least, I have adopted yet another pair of shoes. Who knew you could "need" so many?


Done any thrifting lately?

Great finds. I've got same style boots (without the zip) that I bought back in 2001. Still got them and don't have heart to throw them out. I have banned myself now from buying anything that takes any space (unless it's storage i.e shelf). I've just packed 4 boxes of books and other stuff to take to charity shop. So happy shopping for someone who gets to buy my old stuff :)

Oh, underbar underklänning! Så vacker färg.
Trevliga fynd! Så fint det är med blommor på väggarna, ger både färg och skapar form. Hmm, klart intressant inredningsdetalj... =)

Kram!

Erika; Tack, jag kunde inte motstå färgen...Krukväxter gör verkligen att lägenheten känns hemtrevlig, i mitt tycke iaf. Kram!
