Is anyone like me?

Are you like me? Do you drool over the gorgeous Vintage finds the lucky people in the USA seem to come across everyday. I regularly visit blogs and delight in drooling over there finds. Its not always easy but there are Vintage goodies to find here in the UK if you are prepared to look hard enough. I regularly find items at estate sales and auctions which I pick up for the shop, I neglect talking about these items and I think it needs to be corrected!!! To be honest they sell so quickly I rarely get the time to get the items online, and one of the reasons we love Vintage sooooo much is because you can not easily find another. But in order to fly the flag for our Vintage British finds I am hoping to regularly post my goodies on my blog (and website if they hang around long enough!)
These are items that I have picked up in the last 2 weeks. I love this little elf soap dish, I am not convinced it is that old but to sweet to pass up. I always love the colours in vintage board games and childrens books and couldnt resist this Tiddly Winks game. And look aat that glamourous lady on the knitting pattern! oh la la!! The set of Tumblers are late 50's/60's and I always seem to be drawn to anything in that era (I think I was born too late!) and I just love this 50's swan planter. I have seen loads of the modern ones but the colours in this vintage swan are so soft and the porcelain is so muted it just yummy! If anybody knows anything about the small dog ashtray let me know, its such a lovely colour and so dinky.
