For the love of...Melamine?

You've been waiting very patiently for more melamine cups to arrive. Well the wait is over and the great news is NEW COLOURS! There are 3 new colours available to add to your collection, coral, purple and fuchsia, but stocks of these are limited...
There is also plates, mugs, bowls and cutlery for kids...online now.



And before you ask, No I can't get yellow, pistachio and some of the other previous colours...but maybe I can convince the supplier to bring those in later if demand is high enough.

Cheerful...

I'm loving these colourful paper lanterns in the window at the moment, they are just so cheerful.
Lots of lovely colours, only $6.95 each.

The bib is Back...

New vintage fabric bibs, hot off the sewing machine. And the really nice thing is, they're at our old market prices. Small $14, Large $22...I'm feeling nostalgic.

All of me...

Listening to the new Michael Buble in the shop. Every time the song 'All of Me' comes on I can't help but giggle thinking of this act from the Muppet show...

New kid on the Curb...

I'm back and refreshed from my holidays. The girls here did a great job looking after the store whilst I was away, makes me feel a bit redundant really. Am still trawling through my e-mails, was delighted to come across a message from Estelle, who used to work here before she left me to have a baby. Estelle has started a super cool, new blog called curbside style, about lots of stuff but mainly design and decorating on a budget. She is my market and op-shop buddy, and we have an unspoken understanding about finds. First to see gets first dibs...Estelle always uncovers the best stuff!
Make sure to add curbside style to your blog lists.
