Thrifty Home...

For all Thrift Fans out there - i have had a few bargain finds over the past month of house renovation. As i get a spare 5mins to share them, i will try.
This is my ebay 1950's pantry - amazingly it was being sold by a gentleman very close to my new home so it saved all that ebay hassle of "HOW do i get this from ebay land into MY home?" type debates.
The case and wooden trug on top, a few of my many TIP finds!
The bottom is stuffed with my Girl's Art and Craft bits (yes, it's hard to share!)
And in the top sections i have stacked my fabric pieces
Ahhh, tea, chocolate brownie, slobbery dog = bliss
Annoyingly blank walls awaiting picture hanging
And our only 2 comfy chairs! so no visitors allowed at present.
One for Mummy Bear & one for Baby Bear
Thrifted Brown cord Pouffe.
I bloomin' lurve a good bargain and a bit of recycling xxx

What a treasure you have found! Hope things will be a little less hectic for you soon...but then again with children they never seem to calm!

really glad to see you are putting your own stamp on your new abode, looks fab and I'm not at all jealous of that vintage cabinet. No, not at all. Not even a tiny bit.

Fishy can I confess something to you, I am an ebay virgin, shy and unsure what to do!
