Have your ever seen a pair of shoes you just had to have? I found this pair in a charity shop for a few dollars and my size. A perfect fit but sadly found about 60 years too late. If I wore them now I would need an ambulance on standby. Found in another charity shop yesterday, the perfect evening bag to go with my shoes. Sadly the Dress, Prince Charming, the Ball and Gold Coach are all missing.
A few new royal souvenirs, have had the pink teapot for years then found a jug to go with it. The yellow vase is also one I've had for years and now have a red one. Love the red vase with the Queen.
The red vase has a coronation portrait by Dorothy Wilding and is from the Diamond Jubilee.
A lovely royal fabric I bought from America, not sure what to do with it yet so it is waiting on the back of my lounge. Trouble is my guests insist on sitting on my lounge and crushing my display. They refuse to sit on the floor.
It is a large piece of fabric and now I am waiting for a duvet cover from the same seller.
Heard, read or was told about this superstition. If you have a gold purse at your front door your purse will never be empty. Worth a try and I found these pretty bags at a local charity shop.
A lovely old sampler commemorating Queen Victoria's death in 1901. So finely stitched it almost looks printed till you look at the back. The words are almost biblical in praise of the Queen. Too fragile to wash. Sorry it is sideways but blogger is giving me trouble.
My new desk bought with being able to be used for display in mind. It came in a box so I got a very nice young man from Airtasker to put it together for me.
A bit fancy for my coronation fabric dress but the shoes and bag have found a home.

Lovely shoes to go to the ball and a choice of bags. Thank goodness for airtasker to help you. Everything seems flatpacked and needs building today.
ReplyDeleteYou have been busy at the charity shops. Love the collection of bags and the shoes. But I agree maybe a bit dangerous to wear. Royal souvenirs very impressive. Need a notice on your door - take off shoes and sit cross legged on the floor as a sign of respect.
