Easter been and gone

 


And just like that Easter is over and done  with for another year. I had a lovely weekend in a cottage in Yorkshire. Peace, quiet and lots of fresh air.

I stopped in the local market town and did a spot of shopping, I say shopping, really I had been rummaging in the charity and antique shops.

I am always on the look out for  vintage linen, glasses and china. You know the things that I bore you with pictures of on social media!
There is nothing like a decent cotton table napkin to go along side  bone china, and  don't get me started on  crystal glassware.

And true to form, I managed to find some rare pieces of china and some useful pieces ( for cocktail hour nibbles) , as well as some lovely glasses.

Oh dear it is becoming a bit ( a lot) of an obsession.

Having a new flash car, big house, designer clothes and handbags is not really my style, I tend not to try to go with the latest trend, I am much more my own  person and as such I like to set my own style. Quirky I think is the word So having a good look around for more of my quirky treasure is always order of  any free days I have.

With this in mind, I am looking to possibly  turn this into an online business, so look  out for more details in the future. ( whilst I am looking to see how to make it happen).

You may notice the lack of cocktails this week, well if truth be told I was really tired when I finished work on Thursday and Friday went by in such a blur, before I knew it, it was bedtime.


Cocktails will return next week.
