Some beads for my jewellery making.
A great kitsch tea towel which I am going to make into a cushion cover (and put in the shop).
A vintage magazine rack.
A gorgeous 1950s tea cosy (probably put this in the shop too).
A vintage doll in Norwegian (?) folk costume - again, one for the shop.
A very collectable and so sweet 1950s Ladybird book.
Embroidered serviettes (also shop-bound).
Happy days!

I have to say that you like very unusual things. :)
It's true!
You really should visit some flee markets in Germany and send some containers full of stuff home!
I have to confess I do not share your love for 50ties items... remembers me to much how it really looked like where when I was a kid in the 70ties ;-).
(But we have a typical 50ties table in our kitchen which looks like this one:

I will definitely do that, Bodecea. Where do you think the best markets are? I am still kicking myself about things I didn't buy at the Naschmarkt in Wien in '02!
For some reason that link didn't work...weirdly, I do love the vintage stuff because it reminds me of childhood!
Great haul Feronia!
Thanks Library Girl! I am *very* pleased with it!
Hi Feronia,
just copy & past the links if they do not! :-)
Best place for markets would be Berlin, I think. Dunno where & when there are the best ones in this town... some links:
