It's been a while since I did a Thrifty Sunday! I guess I've been busy of late and not visiting the op shops as much or maybe getting more selective with what I do pick up. One thing I'll never get sick of are cute cat ornaments to add to my collection! (still a bit fussy though!)
First up these rad Siamese salt and pepper shakers from Toowoomba. Ben told me an interesting fact passed down from his Mum, that salt and pepper shakers were super popular in the yesteryear due to being classed as a homewares rather than a decorative item and therefore avoiding some type of tax loop-hole thingy. I'm also really bad at retelling stories so maybe someone else can pipe in here with some solid facts!
My swizzle stick collection grows!
Couldn't resist this cutie!
Some vintage Christmas wrappings from a tip-shop of all places!
How cute is this little Avon perfume bottle - high fives all round for some kick arse packaging Avon!
My mum actually spotted this guy for me - an embroidered piece of cloth wedged between two glass panes with one side silver and the other gold
And lucky last (pun intended!) a happy maneki!!
