It’s My Birthday…

… weekend this weekend (birthday is a Monday this year), so I’m being treated to a few hours at the car boot with the rest of Green Phoenix Crafts, as my family will all be visiting :).
We managed to get a good haul  last time we were there, though mostly things for ourselves, plus an item I’d been looking for for ages which was up-cycled into my sister’s graduation present and that I posted a few days ago.

We got a real bargain with these three mirrors: £5 for the three, all of which have or will find their way onto our hallway’s ‘wall of mirrors’

As I’m really enjoying up-cycling frames at the moment, that will be what I’m on the lookout for tomorrow :). Though any small furniture also appeals (aside from the extra space it takes up in our (already bursting-at-the-seams) home! I also can’t ever resist an atlas or anything with maps in!

Around working hard in the last weeks of term, I’m hoping to make some lovely travel frames with quotes. Long-term travel is certainly something that we’re working towards and therefore it would be nice to meld our passions :).

 

Anyway, wish  me look for a good day tomorrow: though considering the way the rain is currently lashing down I’m not holding my breath! Maybe charity shops would be a better bet!
