Two little cuties...

How do you like these two little cutie patooties?

A vintage Triang tricycle - hands up if you're old enough to remember these, maybe you even had one (I had a scooter and spent many happy hours scooting up and down the pavement outside the house!)...

... and a darling little doll's pram...look at the curly bits on the handle and different sized wheels...it's so cute.

For the record I loved my doll's pram and I used to push my poor cat up and down the garden in it!

Here's the photographic evidence of me about to commit the terrible deed...

I've looked at this photo hundreds of times and I've only just realised I can see my late Mum's reflection in the window, my goodness this is turning into a trip down memory lane!

Anyway, back to business...these two sweeties will be coming with me to the MK Vintage Fair so come and see them for yourself - and see how I've turned out too - ha ha!

Latest goodies for the Vintage Fair........

Okay, here goes...I finally got round to taking some photos of a few of the items I am taking to the MK Handmade and Vintage Extravaganza on 1st and 2nd March.....it helped that the sun finally came out but I have been very bad at posting photos lately and, in my excitement to get going,  I still forget to take the 'before' shots so apologies!

here are two lovely, stylish storage solutions. I think they'd look great stacked in a corner or at the foot of the bed and they'd be perfect for books, DVDs, linens, out of season clothes etc.

This little pretty is a shabby sewing box with lovely curvy legs...

here's the inside...

and the design on the top...

and next a fabulous old chest for all your treasures...

with a seriously shabbied up interior...

I want to keep this one! a super blanket box on castors. I'm a sucker for stacking boxes full of linens and fabric stashes all over the house - they're just so beautiful!

and here's the design on top - this came out really well....

and now a piece of faded grandeur...a gorgeously ornate table finished in an old white over gilt....

look at the fabulous details, this one is really stunning - again, if I had the space I'd keep it!

and here's a different take on the occasional table, with metal legs and shelves underneath this would fit into most interiors...

and look at this dear little French lustre ware salt pot with a wooden lid - how sweet is this?

finally (for now anyway), is this huge wooden chest. This is a real heavyweight and I haven't decided how to finish it yet. So far all I've done is treat it for woodworm as it has a few old holes. There are no signs of active worm but it's always better to be safe rather than sorry.

here's the inside...it will be a really useful piece of furniture when it's finished so it's back to work for me!

and, of course, while I'm working the furbabies are taking it easy in their French style bed with a toile cushion - spoilt or what?

Do come along to the show on 1st and 2nd March, it's always a wonderful occasion with a great atmosphere and even if you don't buy anything you'll have a lovely time!
