Some old family memorabilia

Staying at my Aunts today and she has passed on  all her old wedding cards - must be about 60 years -will post one every day until their all up.  Pllus during the war she was sent to Canada so I have all her tags and registration cards

This cute wedding gift card opens on both sides.

More antique shopping

A visit to the antique markets on Sunday (can't believe it was three days ago already) and I picked up this cute Limoges antique brooch. I collect Limoges hand painted plates and now seem to have ventured into the brooch area.

Some vintage findings

I have so many blog posts in draft mode, mainly xmas related, I really have to get cracking and finish them.. before I do just sharing some vintage findings - two little items I found at the Sydney Antique Centre. We both love looking in all these little stores.. This is what I found


Not sure of the origin but it is a scent bottle complete with dauber and a little stopper. It looks to me like Indian design, I love filigree work and have picked up a few things with this type of design.

This vintage brooch was a realy bargain, 1950's design. I won't wear it as I am not a brooch person, it would look great in a scrapbooking vintage layout, lol, but I won't do that that, it will go on my shelf with all my other little findings.

The Glebe Antique fair is on 3 Jan and we will make and early start to get there before the rush. This is a great place to pick up vintage emphera and postcards

See my little shelf here in this post, it really has changed alot in a year so now is the time to take another picture.
