Council Clean-up paydirt

For my area i totally hit the motherload in our council clean-up!! It's nothing like the crazy booty found by a certain lovely lady, but I was pretty stoked with it!!

There aren't really a lot of old ladies in our complex, but maybe someone was cleaning out their mothers or grandmothers place or something. But what I do know, is that they discarded some VERY cool vintage fabric!! YIIPPEEE!!! ( I also salvaged a belt and daisy fridge magnets)

The blue flower one is a a heavyweight satin like fabric that will make a perfect summer frock!



ps - does anyone else LOVE the word frock like I do???

Find of the century!!

Bring on the holiday council clean ups!! People being ruthless and getting rid of all their old possessions. On Wednesday, Mr Honi and I found these beauties on the side of the road. They are now protecting our balcony entrance :)
