A tour at the thrift store.






I think the chairs are Napoleon III style???











Forget me not porcelain 


 Hello Friends,

Today, I must clean and paint the hen and rooster that are in the garden. First I must clean them and paint them. We don’t like them in black so I went to get little paint pots this morning and then went to the thrift shop

To get some old cups and saucers to do a DIY with them.

Today,we are back to cold 5C and all sorts of weather in one day! The peonies are blooming a lot now ( I think there will be about twenty on the bush)

I just come back from the thrift store, it was a long time I have not been there. This is what I found!

You never know what you are going to find! I did not know I was going to find two chairs 🪑 ( one has lost a piece on top but I don’t mind 20 euros for both.

And with the vintage porcelain tea cups and two vintage prayer books 10 euros. The embroidery is what we call a “ cache torchon” it was used to hide the kitchen tea towel ( it was like a curtain in front of the towels)

I must go and clean my finds now!
