Today l walked into our favourite local Op Shop and spotted on the shelf in a little cluster (looking very out of place amongst the china cups and plastic plates) three fabulous little treasures. ...My brother and family are coming to visit next month. Two little girls who find our place a treasure trove of weird, strange and interesting things. l immediately thought these would be fun inexpensive quirky objects to have in their room when they stay.First was this rather odd plaited cane treasure chest.
Then this little trinket box..............don't get excited folks.. it's not silver......or even metal ....it's a sort of resin plastic but it's red velvet lined inside with a mirror...........kids will love it!
And the absolute 'piece de resistance' without doubt was this............... It winds up and plays 'King of the Road" and as it does so the roof quite bizarrely lifts up and down in a sort of jerky uncoordinated way! lts great!........kids or no kids l had to have it!!
And then l spotted something for me......a bowl ...red ....... garish ...love it.............
And not one single candlestick! Thank you Op Shop! $7 well spent!
