Charity shopping.

I'm trying to stop so much stuff coming into my house, but sometimes I can't resist!

My mum gave me this, I assume it came from her charity shop, I LOVE it!

I usually by the mustard colourway of this crockery, but I couldn't resist this because it was super duper cheap!

I bought myself a jar of wooden beads.  I have a craft in mind for them where they'll become heads!

Excuse this awkward photo of this item being held aloft, it was the best lighting I could get!  I was walking down the high street and this was outside one of the charity shops.  It didn't have a price and I paid a bit more than I'd usually pay, but the money goes to a good cause so I can't really complain.

I fell down a bit of a nostalgic Hollie Hobbie internet hole last month, then searched for Hollie Hobbie on eBay, then found this and bought it and I have no idea what I'm going to do with it, but I really love it!

Look!  They're new in their packet!  It's too exciting!  Mum says she had this bedding but in a different colour in the seventies.  She says my Nan and Granddad had it too, in yellow and brown flannelette!  You can see the brown and yellow version on the packet illustration too.

These are new in their packets too!!  They have their original price stickers on too, £5.75 for the sheet and £1.15 for the pillowcase.  I kind of don't want to take them out of the packets.

I believe these are Marks and Spencers/St Michaels too, and they look like they've never been used.
