Frills, Thrills and Bellyaches

If for some strange reason you don't like pretty vintage you'd best click yourself outta here before reading any further......

On our trip to Mt Tamborine, Kirstin took us to visit her sister's shop, which I have been in several times before but not knowing to whom it belonged to. And I was allowed to take lots and lots of photos without feeling like a creepy person! Which was a good thing ~ it's so gorgeous! Every inch of this shop and it's verandah is beautifully arranged with pretty vintage pieces and lots of unusual quirky things too. I love how Amanda has displayed everything. I had such a great time looking at it all, the china cabinets reminded me of my Nan's as did the jewelry.  The joy I had as a child, sitting on her bed, carefully sifting through her glittering beads and rings and being allowed to try them on has never left me. That's one of the reasons I love places like this. So many treasures waiting to be found. The swan below magically found his way back to my house because I just couldn't walk away... I blame Kirstin ~ she really shouldn't have brought me to this den of iniquity.

and do you know I saw a very similar swan sitting on Tom and Barbara's coffee table in
"The Good Life" last night on the telly!

                            

                                

       

                      

If you haven't already discovered the delights.....Vintage Frills is at North Tamborine, Main Rd. 

So. Totally. Gorgeous.

*if anyone knows what album I am referencing in the title of my post, without googling ~ 
you will get a prize {not the swan!}
