Flea Market Finds..

Happy Sunday my thrifting friends!  I do hope your weekend has been just wonderful and filled with lovely outings and fabulous finds.  Yesterday we began our family thrifting adventures and my was it fun! It's great to have three people searching and we were so delighted by the treasures we uncovered.  Pop over here to check out all of last weekend inspiring finds. 



This gorgeous orange Brother typewriter wasn't one of our finds yesterday, but I just couldn't resist sharing it with you as it's very special to me.  It belonged to my grandparents and was used by my grandmother to type letters for my grandfather's business. 

Our finds this week were all about the kitchen! 


This delightful casserole dish is the perfect addition to a retro kitchen.  I just love the floral lid! 


And we just couldn't leave this orange floral pot behind.. it's sure to make cooking dinner more fun!  


And to finish our kitchen finds, this set of vintage ramekins in delightful candy colours.   

I'd love to know what you found this week. To play along just leave a comment and add your flea market blog post link in the Linky below so we can all check out your goodies. It would be just so sweet of you to link back here from your blog too, so that others can play along. Remember you can play any time during the week! Oh and pop over to Apron Thrift Girl for Thrift Share Monday.  Looking forward to seeing all of your lovely thrifty pictures. If the Linky disappears, just refresh your browser.

Happy Thrifting

  4. I'm always in awe of your finds. I love the retro pots, but that typewirter made me swoon. Even better that it has history in your own family. I must do a little thrifting in our school holidays. My kids are getting into it now too. Cx
