Car Boot Haul

I went to a Car Boot Market on Saturday, it was a gloriously sunny day, great atmosphere and lots of bargains, here's what I got...

A nice wooden file index, I'll probably use it for recipes, although "A" is missing, I guess that's Aardvark stuffed with apricots and avocado out ;-) $3





After waiting forever to find a nice vintage lamp in working order I found THREE at once -$5 each - all working!! I love the one with the little flowers on it - "Shabby Industrial"?

More vintage sports equipment for the boys - $5, I love the lovely turned handles of the bats and the old net!

A nice photo-album with faux-wood effect on cover - $3.

And a cute vintage tour bus for the munchkins' collection - $1.

The third lamp is gorgeous. Especially like the file index too.
