Custom Order

Today was my granddaughter Grace's birthday party, so it was a very busy day taking photos, helping a little with the preps, watching the kids all have such fun etc.

I only had time to get an order ready to be posted this morning, and prepare a custom listing this evening. A whole big bunch of my cute little French escargot pots are going to a restaurant in Australia!

I have tons of party  photos to edit this evening, and I am way too tired to stay up really late to do some more listings, but I'll make up for it tomorrow. FOUR listings at least. There, I said it, lol.

Friday 7 November 2014

Today we have.........

a collection of vintage French enamelware in the rich reddy brown or brownish red of the 1930s -


There is this lovely little coffee pot in excellent condition -

this matching enamel 3-part lunch pail - SOLD

as well as this matching milk jug -

I also listed a rather special item, an authentic French street sign - Rue de la Pepiniere, which means Nursery Street. Nursery as in plant/tree nursery, which would make this such a perfect gift for a gardener, florist, landscape artist, garden centre owner....... - SOLD

Thats it for today, tomorrow I think I'll photograph and list some touchy feely stuff, some vintage trims, or lace grab bags. Or maybe some vintage French bakeware....  We'll see.

Sunday 2 November 2014

Today - Two!

Not much, lol, but as I said yesterday, one or two a day is probably the way to go for me. I am struggling with getting to grips with the new computer. Windows 8.1 is such a PITA. But  you don't want to hear about that here, you want to see the two listing I put up today, don't you?

Here they are -

A set of three graduated French copper colanders, fabulous kitchen decor -
SOLD





and this really sweet antique French tin with the loveliest Springtime theme - SOLD




I wonder how long I'll be able to keep this one or two a day listing up?? :-)
