Vintage Finds

Now that it's getting sunnier everybody seems to be getting outside; gardens are starting to take shape after the horrible winter frosts.  Last week we had our first BBQ, admittedly by the end of the evening we were very definitely in need of blankets and throws, however it was lovely to be outside. 
When setting the table I decided to unveil my latest find, a beautiful linen vintage table cloth! I love it!!!
After our BBQ we took a stroll to our local pub, they've changed the decor, incorporating lots of lovely
lamps and old drink bottles as flower vases. I love the silver lining of the lampshade, it really reflects the light! Hope you enjoy the photos!
Now... back to my mirror,  bought from an antiques fair for £5.  I just opened it up so I could paint the frame and found a newspaper in the back from 1956!!! A proper find!! Hoping it looks ok once the paint dries.  Watch this space!
