Charity shopping, the one with the 50p Meakin jug.

I've been buying beautiful mustard and brown seventies things from the charity shops, see!

Joe bought me these retro salt and pepper shakers as a housewarming present ages ago.  I love the colours so much!

Can you tell from the photo this is a little glass cat?  Well it is!

I think Saffron is my favourite Hornsea pattern.  I love the Hornsea canisters that are plain, rather than having 'tea' or 'coffee' written on them, so I'm super pleased with this.

Here's the little Meakin jug.  It's so tiny and cute, when I turned it over there was a Meakin Studio mark on the bottom, and Google tells me the pattern is called Maori.

Have you bought any mustard and brown seventies things recently?  Or any other brilliant bargains?

  2. I'm really drawn to mustard and brown things too! I think they must have been around the house when I was little. ;)

    1. Come to think of it we had our fair share of orange and brown when I was little too!

  3. Saffron is my favourite Hornsea pattern and guess what I actually have the teas, coffee and sugar, a plain one would be most too. So glad to note its your fave too. I will have to show them off on my blog. The retro salt and pepper shakers are good - your Joe did good.
