This morning we went to Cheddar to the Vintage/Car Boot Market.
A vast undercovered area selling mainly tat, old toys, revolting rugs, out of date chocolate, and meat by the ton!
But, if you look beyond the rubbish you might just spy some pretty lace fabric, crochet blankets, pretty tea cups, and vintage jewellery.
Today I found these wonderful 1970's Hornsea Heirloom pieces.
I love the colour, the fabulous graphic print and the teak lid.
For two I paid £10, and they are looking lovely on my kitchen shelf alongside my coffee pot.
I think I might start a collection of these wonderful items... and some day mass something a little like this!
