New home ware additions…

As long as something is beautiful and good quality, the price is generally(and I say generally as I’m no chamillionaire) not an issue for me. I don’t care if it is from and op-shop or designer, the way it looks and feels is more important to me.

With that in mind here are some of my recent purchases…


China serving platter and plate set: $12 from my local op shop.


Porcelain pears: $2 each from my local op shop


Archipelago ‘Caramel’ candel: $52 from Kit Cosmetics


Willow tea cup set: $4 from op shop in Port Fairy. Japanese blue glazed coffee cup: $2 from Savers.

    Wow, my caramel candle and I go way back! I got one a few years ago and my gf loved it so much I bought her one as a gift. I just got my boyfriend the sweetpea one for his apartment. You’re going to love coming home it. So delicious!
