Let's go shopping

I recently bought one of these pretty little prints from Pool Pony. I love the retro colours...and I love getting surprises in the mail! So I thought I would spend a lazy Saturday night, watching Marlon Brando in The Wild Ones and going shopping with Bris-Style
I am madly coveting Pyrex lately, but have no hope of ever finding the lovely examples found in the US, unless I want to spend over $100! 
I love Kathie Winkle and can spot her at twenty paces. It kills me that anyone is destroying her plates, even to make pretty brooches.
  
Barkcloth, barkcloth, barkcloth
This is something else you don't see much of in Australia. In fact I can honestly say I have never seen one. Doesn't mean I don't covet them

  1. Lovely retro eye candy - that bird print is just my kind of thing. We have inferior pyrex patterns over here too, at least to my mind.

  4. Hiya
    I’m just sending out a quick message to let people know their Faith Hope and Charity Swapping partners. Days of spreedsheet fiddling I tell you, if this works it’s going on my CV! I won’t have access to a PC from Tues 31st until June 6th – so any questions will have to wait til I get back I’m afraid. I’m going to put up a quick post on the rules before I go, but for now you can check out your partner’s blog and start figuring out what they might like.
    Your swap partner is Brian's an Unusual Name for a Girl
