The twins and I have been away for the week in Cheshire staying with Grandma but this didn't stop me having a little browse around an amazing Antiques Emporium up there. Most of the items although fab, were priced out of my comfort zone so I only picked up a cup and saucer for £2 and a set of 3 plates for £2 (will post them at a later date) . Back home and up early on Saturday as I had a mountain of customer orders to post and no food in the house. (well can't expect hubby and No1 son to shop, clean etc for themselves when I am away) ! I had the perfect excuse to "have a little look" in my favourite shop after the post office.
I must say I am finding less and less these days on my trips but I did find these pieces which follow a bit of a blue theme and make a lovely selection to include on romantic picnic for two. Hubby and I don't get much "us" time these days and we both miss and need it. So I dream if ever there was a chance for us to get away from it all, I imagine us sat under a weeping willow tree, by a river, sipping wine and eating strawberries.......
Blue Celeste Meakin plates set of four for £1
Blue pressed glass Cake stand ( used as a plate for the strawberries) £1.50
Two pretty pale blue candle votives for £1
Pretty Bluebells picked from the garden and popped in an old bottle. Simple, stunning and free.
and the song we would play .......
