Lucky, lucky me!

 Firstly, in case any ones not had a chance to enter my give away, here's a link so you may do so
This morning I went out for a walk and happened to stumble upon a 'garage sale' at the caravan park. I use the term garage sale loosely as thats what they called it but realy it was lots of stalls of second hand goodies, like a mini market.
I came away from most of the stalls empty handed but then I came to the very last stall.... The lady holding it and I must have the same taste as I found all this and left behind more that I would have also liked. She was a bubbly and fun lady and we had fun going through the goodies together as she was putting things out, shed not seen most of it since she last moved house so it was fun for both of us!

 I fell in love with the porcelain plugs and bought them even though I had no idea what I could do with them. When i got home I realised they happen to fit our bathroom sink and bath plug, yippe! I so love this star tea strainer, the children will enjoy my old one in the sand pit

 Is this not the cutest little old train youve ever seen? The varnish is so worn that it will only need a light sand before I can polish it with beeswax polish. The book its sitting on is an old enid blyton book that has adorable pictures. Its old dusty smell reminds me of the toy box at Ma and Pops when I was younger (the toys were saved from my Dad's childhood)

 Ive been spending the long weekend crafting goodies for the market im going to be having a stall at. Ive so far made some wool felt goodies, some organic hemp/cotton scarfs and a few bees wax candles. Im nervous to have stall but my friend Sarah said she'll come along which will be realy fun

And just because it looked so pretty when I held it to the light (and begged me to take a picture, you know how it is) a pic of my sprouts when I was rinsing them. Ive been using the rinse water to water my indoor plants and all those wonderful vitimins from the lucern seeds sure have perked them up!

we found a house!!!!!!!!!!

i am so relieved, we have a house that will definately be ours if we want it, thanks to one of bennys mums friends. they are doing a few things to it (including putting in a new lawn, yippe!) and it will be ready for us mid december, which is perfect timing for us.

we had just started realy getting into the idea of buying as nothing quite what we wanted was up for rent so we are still going to keep looking into buying, but have this as a back up plan. its soooo comforting to now have a back up plan. its such a weight off my shoulders. not that i was too worried, but i just smile all over now that i know we have a back up plan.

we are going to have a look inside on wednesday night, fingers crossed we love the inside as much as the outside xx(they are my crossed fingers) ill ask if i can take and share pics.

until then, here are some pics of what will be in our house, i got some great garage sale finds-$5.00cupboard (i know, the handles must go!, $50 pine table and chairs, and because i just love them, had to share th funky draw liners, love love love them!
