A Collection every couple of days

Hi everyone,
I must admit I have been spending a lot more time on Facebook,I guess because its a fairly instant result,and badly  neglecting my blog . Sorry folks ! I have started a collection every couple of days thanks to Tamara over at Shabby Vintage junk.
So I will try and post them here also.
Collection #1 Vintage Compacts
I have been collecting these since I was a little girl I love there beautiful designs particularly the floral ones.As I find new ones at Opp shops ,Garage sales,markets and Estates,I sell the ones that I don't love as much any more and hop they go to a new home to be loved and admires again.

So hopefully this photo will load up (yes still trying to figure that out)
Cheers Lyn

My Vintage Caravan update

Hi Everyone ,

This weekend Mr FV&C has been busy getting his van fixed  and working at selling more crap at the market,so Miss Grace and I have been at home doing some more work on the Vintage Caravan

. I had started making curtains when I first got her but never quite found time to finish them off. 

We plan on doing some swap meets and antique fairs so that we can have some family travel time together whilst making some money. 

So I've finished the the curtains and figured out how to fit us all in with comfort and hopefully style.  Next we have to work on some not so fun stuff like broken window replacement and brake lights and a few other non cosmetic things ( I find these things a bit boring but they are unfortunately  necessary )so this whole process has taken around three years without much result but hopefully now it will speed up a bit ! So I figure if your reading my blog your probably interested in the cosmetic things like me!

This is her when I got her

Still working on the cosmetics!

I'm still  looking for a name for her and I've had a few suggestions all of which are lovely but not quite there yet .! I'm open for more ideas ,and I would love to hear what you think!

Cheers Lyn

At the Vintage shed today

Hi Everyone,
I trotted down to the Vintage Shed today and did a tidy and caught up with a few lovely people. I am still having problems linking  my I pad to my blog as I'm not really technologically minded !

However I did take some photos and posted them on face book. Tomorrow we are off to Waverley Bazaar to take some lovely new things up there and chat to the lovely folk there (clearly lots of chatting going on here ) so I will keep posting until I get it right !!

Cheers Lyn

so this is christmas...

Hi Everyone,
 On Wednesday I'm heading  off to Western Australia for Christmas with my brother, and a well deserved break.
Its been a hard year and over the last couple of months I have lost a bit of my creativity and I am really looking forward to a battery re charge.
And some constant warm weather!!!
Here's a few photos of recent beach trips when Mornington was sunny.

                                                                    scary selfie

                                                                      the girls

                                                                          a mermaid

So wishing everyone a great silly season and until I get back home ,have fun

Cheers Lyn

Being a mum

Hi Everyone,
 yes I know Ive been a bit slack in posting, but running a business and being a mum can be a bit hard! I have however been posting quite a bit on face book.
Miss Grace has come on in leaps and bounds and has been having transition days at her new school for next year,so that has taken up a bit of time.
Plus there has been a few medical dramas an I've been out of action a bit,with not much creating going on.
But my stalls at the Vintage shed are full and ready for the Christmas season and my lovely brother has shouted me and Miss Grace a trip to Western Australia to share Christmas with him !Long trip but some good times to come.

                                                                 The girls at the beach

                                                            Garage sale treasures

                                                     Meeting Faeries at emu planes market

                                                                    our beautiful beach boxes

                                                       Some wild life at garage sales

                                                                  fairy all dressed up
                                        So that's a snap shot of life lately hope your all well
                                                                          Cheers Lyn

Long time no posts

Hi everyone,
Its been a flat out month here at home with lots of spring cleaning, pricing ,learning new computer programs for business,and keeping my family happy and healthy.
I also haven't taken many photos of things going down to the shop (however there has been lots of goodies)and I haven't done enough sewing to keep me happy and creative (due of course to the other stuff getting in the way).
So I hope during November I will get on to this pleasurable part of my life.
 So don't give up on me but be patient and I will be back to regular blogging soon !
                                                         

                                                                     Cheers Lyn
