Vintage Nighties and other lovelies

Firstly I want to thank you ladies for emailing me to see everything In my life is ok...you all are so very kind...It's just things have been very busy around here for me for the last 5mths...packing moving, then unpacking, was having a baby then lost it 6 weeks in, silly bugger just attached itself to the wrong area ( C section) but I am ok with it all, so please don't feel sad!! from kids parties to my daughters christening and her birthday, to stocking up shop to trying to set up the studio craft area at the shop, all that to fall through as the owner has now sold the shop, now it looks like I have to move out.....so make sure you pop back to see info on the big SALE!!!!



So back a few posts ago I mentioned about all my vintage nighties, this is just a few that are hard to let go, hmmmm maybe just maybe they will end up in my online boutique, I have started to upload some of them including bed jackets, make sure you keep watch as I have over 30 to upload as you know uploading takes time.



This Aqua with white lace is gorgeous, its sheer light to wear with beautiful lace trimming, you can see how it would be hard for me to part with this one, not only because of its beauty but because I have a love for blue and all shades in this hue.


loving the detail of this neckline, don't you?


Oooooooohhhhha this one is simply stunning, this soft blue nightie and gown to match, has the most amazing lace work to it, one again sheer, with alot of lace work around the neckline, the sleeves and around the bottom,




soft to touch, and did I mention how beautiful the colour is, you would feel very girly like a princess and romantic for your partner in this sweet number the only thing you would need is some of those fluffy high heel slippers...hee, hee....Shhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!





look at the detail lace work in the sleeves, and not to mention...dotted with a pale pink bunch of flowers.....we all have to have our little flower details....don't we!!!





These are just a selection of fabrics I love so much displayed in a white vintage basket, and have just started to do some projects with them....will keep you posted there.


I have to admit I do love walking past the basket filled with all these yummy's, I have a bad habit....I buy the fabrics in all good intention to make lots of yummy thing but cant bring myself to cut it up.....why is that?







Just a simple beautiful picture I love and had to share with you, ohhhh and by the way the vintage bowl in the image is list in my boutique HERE






Well back in January we moved house, so there was lots to unpack and a lot that stayed packed with some huge help from my dear friend Mandii...but the one thing I had to have out is my ever growing vintage glassware which I also have started to think maybe I don't need that much glassware, but who can resist when the hues are so beautiful....oh and I have listed some of these in the boutique as well HERE


I also revamped this dresser about 2 and a years ago, I left the chippy paint, white with green under tone, and gave it a light sand, the middle draw and door already had the perfect shade of green, then I inlaid the mosaic in the doors, one piece of furniture I have fought in my mind and heart do I sell or do I not sell......Hmmmmmmm time will tell.












this is my dining room of the house that I'm renting, where Mandii helped me with the setting up of, I love the way the light bouncers around the room in the morning, and is a joy to eat in.....unfortunately in the next image.......



you can see all our hard work has gone to major organised chaos, stuff, beautiful stuff line around the walls on the floor things that were meant to go to the craft area at the shop stayed here.....so I think I need a new system and or sell the bloomen lot.......I'm all cluttered up and hating it.....so my friend hoping I wont leave it to late next time in posting....well I can't as I need to let you know about the SALE and new items listing online....so feel free to pop over to my boutique HERE if you want to view everything click on ALL ITEMS......







Chat soon!!!
Hugs from me to you
