I have a confession....*hangs head* A day off today and an afternoon of free time on my hands I broke my 8 week no thrifting ban! I'm so sorry! Naaat (not in a Belfast accent) Cold turkey wasn't for me. Bob's bike came in very handy today, cycling to meet my chum and Martha for coffee at St George's Market, then whizzing round the charity shops of East Belfast. Only problem with biking it round the shops is getting the stuff home, I need a trailer for the bike! I've been working on a couple of new projects, I'll be sharing them with you soon, today I managed to thrift a couple of bits and bobs for these and also some gorgeous fabric, all will be revealed!
I was happy today to discover Viva Retro has reopened on the Newtonards road, a snoopers paradise and full of fab vintage furniture, pictures, pottery, glass ware, records, a potential danger zone for someone like myself. If only we had the space I'd have come home with this boat bar, I could imagine the big lad adorned with sailor hat serving me drinks!
