Nothing cheers a girl up, after being sick for the weekend, than a spot of shopping :) I have been trying to not shop. for things that I don't need. But I really am quite addicted to the buzz I get from shopping. Its my drug. But drugs are bad. Because if you do drugs you're a hippy. And hippies suck. (that's a South Park line)....but I digress...
So. I wanted to go to the 2nd hand store to pick up some tea cups. I have a small collection, that I have gathered over the past few years, but in the past week I have broken a few, and noticed large cracks in some. Thought I should get some more...... But.Then.I.Saw.This....
Yes. Its a 1950's bamboo bar. Doll size. I am crazy about Blythe. Some Blythe collectors also collect doll furniture, I never have. But seriously! It's a bamboo bar. I couldn't resist. Wish it was my size!!! Yeah...I'll probably ebay it- after I take some cute pics. Why isn't it my size????
I then found these bunnies. bunnies! I need no excuse :) Moss covered bunnies (fake moss...but hey!)
Oh, and I stumbled across this... a glass cloche. I have been looking for one since our Alice in Wonderland party. Oh, how I wanted to sit a giant cupcake under one of these... I finally found one. I took this pic with it sitting over my bambi, but it is currently in the kitchen over my bobble head Obama. So Yes. I have put it to good use!
And I did find some tea cups...
OMG! Uh huh. Charles and Di. Can't wait for my morning coffee. When I was tiny I would get mum's Woman's Day magazine and cut all the pictures of Charles and Di out, and stick them into the covers of my Little Golden Books, I think I would have been about 5. I was born a royalist. If only for the weekly trashy magazine reading....guilty!
So. Feeling good. Shopping done. David was very impressed. Went to the 'post office' and came back with all these goodies .....
m.x
I'm pretty darn sure there's no cure for this addiction other than quitting "cold turkey" and who...may I ask you...in their right mind...would want to do something stupid like that!!!????
