You can't beat a bit of kitsch and finding the goodies is so thrilling isn't it, especially if you can get a bargain.<br />I will write a blog post sometime soon about my vintage bar. I bought it last year for my 40th on a whim and am slowly building up the kitsch vintage bar paraphanalia to go with it. Should have done it your way round xxxmiss_bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11729762308207362978noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3911032224643690259.post-40953950692108126662012-06-10T20:42:30.295+01:002012-06-10T20:42:30.295+01:00Compacts......how truly fabulous!!!

I have abit of a collection of cake stands as well, also a few bits now re royalty but probably my biggest collection (which I have been aquiring for years) are items to go in my retro caravan which I hope to have one day soon. Lots of fun kitch plastic ware, barbeque items, linen, funky sleeping bags etc etc....all genuine vintage!! Always very exciting when you nab bargins as well eh.

Actually, I posted a photo of it a couple of days ago- My scones were on top of it!<br /><br />I collect "stuff", like you say! Though I can't resist a cute 1950s or 60s sewing pattern. I don't even sew these days but I can't help buying them!<br /><br />Becky<br />xx<br /><br />http://www.beckybedbug.comBeckyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00954032264773780641noreply@blogger.com
