Treasures Trip.

Yesterday l did the always fun Tip Shop/Op Shop Run. The very first stop was a problem as l bought a rather large piece of galvanised tin that took me half an hour to wriggle into the car and had me travelling the rest of the trip perched somewhat uncomfortably in my seat with it looming over my shoulder!!! And before you wonder what on earth it is??? It's a framed hinged piece of galvanised tin (probably the side of an old rainwater tank) that will fit perfectly over one of our hay racks to keep the rain off the hay in Winter! Sheets of tin generally run the OTHER way so to get hold of a curved piece like this already framed and hinged was a score!

Just fitted!

So anyway .....next stop l bought a lamp!.......THAT had to go in as well! The rather garish lampshade fitted in the boot ok and the overly elaborate base amazingly fitted alongside the tin! Phew!

Bit of a Nanna shade but it looks ok in our house and l will keep half an eye out for a better shade if ever one pops up ! It looks lovely in the Dining Room though AND doubled up outside for a bit of light with a glass of wine!

l then had to cut back a bit really , so reduced my purchases to this cute little outside lamp.................

And finally THIS lamp............and no......it isn't living on the ledge over the bath! It's just here for photo taking purposes!! ((((((l really do have a lamp fetish don't l??? ))))))))

This one l LOVE. And was very happy with it UNTIL l played 'swapping lampshades around'

And got to THIS which l love even more!!!

A great day out to spend only $20!
