Saturday shopping, normally means heading to the local charity shops and having a look around. I love old unique things, I'm also looking for some gorgeous jars / tins for all my baking bits. This week I only managed two shops - we had other plans for the afternoon and I normally spend 30 mins in each shop. The photo above shows my little haul - minus the Barbie doll I brought as Eva was playing with it when I took this photo.
Amaretti Virginia buscuit tin
Brought for £1.50.
After looking for this tin on the internet I have found one selling for £8.96 on Ebay.
I fell in love with this tin after seeing it, it's beautiful. I adore the vintage design, although the date on the bottom of the tin says 2005, so it's actually a new tin the design is the same as the one the company started using in 1860. I was going to use it to store pasta, then I remembered nobody in my house eats pasta so that would be pointless. I'm not sure what I'll use it for yet.

StMichael at Marks and Spencer t-shirt 75p
On the M&S website a shirt from the same range is £10 new and the T-shirt is £8.
7.0mm Needles £1.99
& chunky wool barley shade £2.49
Barbie doll £1.50
This is the old style Barbie with bendy legs at the knees. My daughter has quite a few of the news one and they are no longer bendy. Barbies these days are between £10 - £20 depending on the type. The hair is matted but a quick sprits of Laundry softener with sort this out & leave the Barbie smelling fresh.
