We've moved!

Having recently moved house, everything is now getting a much needed spring clean. New pictures and a fresher feel in my knitting shop, a new style in my vintage shop and now too, a new home for my blog.

This will be the last post here as I'm now over at www.AmandaSainsbury.wordpress.com

A Tale of 6 Bears

Reading this post by roddy&ginger I was instantly taken back to my childhood by this book by William Stobbs. I've spent the last two days looking for it and when I finally did find it, remembered we got alot of ex-library books when we were nippers. Which is fine, but spot the difference :)

A lovely clean and crisp start to the book, what could possibly go wrong.....

oh dear :(
But at least no one put sello-tape over it!

ummmm....

ah well, I must have loved it as I can remember every page and even the shape of the bowls.

However it looks, Goldilocks is still very annoying.

Pins on the Map

Because I clearly don't have enough work to do, I spent far too long over Christmas placing all my sales on a google map.

I do make myself laugh sometimes.

10% Discount - AmandaSainsbury

Along with a 10% discount in my vintage shop, I am also doing a 10% discount on the knitting side.

100 for £10

The lovely and highly talented Tina Mammoser of The Cycling Artist is selling original mini works of art throughout January at the bargain price of £10. There are 100 to snap up here.
I can't wait to receive mine and know exactly where its going regardless of which one Tina picks for me :D

Things For Me

For the first time since I started going to flea markets I'm buying things for myself!
A 1930s/40s bedspread in orange and paisley fabric, a hand embroidered shawl and a Hans Andersen Fairy Tale book.

10% Discount - agoodvintage

To celebrate the New Year, throughout January agoodvintage will have 10% off everything. Just enter coupon code JANUARYSALE in the box at checkout.

First Snow

The first proper snow for this year. A bit later than the rest of the UK I think but still as pretty. Since my birthday last week I think I have grown too old as I despaired slightly at this sight this morning.

Not a fan of doing post office runs in my wellies.

All orders placed have now been posted. Any more this weekend will be posted on Monday 20th which will be my last UK posting date hopefully for a Christmas delivery.

From $ to £

My Etsy knitting shop and my vintage shop are now all in GBP. You will see the approximate currency conversion underneath the GBP price if you are outside the UK. This will be what you pay through Paypal. Simple :)

For more information on this, read HERE.

I also have new in to my Etsy vintage shop a 1961 Penguin book.
