My new camera makes the pretty things in my kitchen look much lovelier. Our kitchen is a bit shabby around the edges (it’s a work in progress) and before now any pictures of the eclectic collection that fill my shelves have looked a bit blah.
Now my pretty collection of vintage finds can shine bit. Here’s a short walk around my kitchen…
A small selection of jugs – I just love jugs…
Pretty metal jelly moulds, glass cake stands, and vintage crockery. Plus an adorable stoneware pot adorned with a picture of a cute cow…
And possibly my favourite find of all…a set of incredibly beautiful French Parfait jars and bottles, illustrated with geese in the snow and pale blue lids…
I don’t know if anyone else finds this interesting…but am happy to continue snapping my carboot and junk shop treasures…I have quite a few littered around the house. Does anyone else love collecting lovely old things? Let me know what you think.
My weekend

I have had a lovely weekend. After travelling back to Cheshire with the little sister, I have…
- Played with the bunnies and taken lots of photos of them
- Made a scrummy summery vegetable barley risotto – topped with crispy bacon bits for us and veggie sausage for the little sister
- Gone to the carboot and come back with a new dress, some charming old books and a glass jug
- Been to see the new Twilight film Eclipse with the little sister and felt like I was 16 all over again (Taylor Lautner is SO yum)
- Come back to reality (although Taylor Lautner is still SO yum) and washed the dog
- And made my favourite tomato spaghetti
Hope you’ve all had a lovely weekend too!
