Some new vintage finds (french bowls for drinking tea or coffee - looked for some so long!) and some snail mail
I want to send before our vacation!

We visited two beautiful autumn markets this weekend, full of tasty things! I think, autumn is really my favourite season.

What is yours and why?

New vintage finds on the fleamarket.

And another lovely snailmail package was waiting for me! These little buttons are so lovely, they make me feel like holiday!
Thank you so much, dear Claudia!

Spent a wonderful Saturday with my boy, first we went to a fleamarket, afterwards we visited a grocery where we found some wonderful tomatoes! We plan to store the seeds for next year to grow our own. I also found some beautiful fabrics, I am not sure yet, what to make out of it. How was your weekend?

7 things.


Met a friend and shared a huge mexican starter plate! Yum!

Went to the fleamarket and found the most beautiful mittens! Can't wait till it's getting cold enough to wear them!

Started to collect things for snail mail.

Golden leaves falling. So beautiful.

Visiting family.

A lot of walks. When there is a dog waiting to for you, it is much easier to get it started.

Still found some hidden last berries in the garden. But taste was less good than in summer.



I wish you a wonderful week!

7 things.



So much sun this week!

Collected nuts & apples.

Visited a fleamarket, the first since months! And look what I finally found: A Diana!
For 7 Euros, a film inside yet! Keep your fingers crossed that I wasn't taken in!

Our flat found a new owner, so there won't be "apartment views" anymore!

I can't believe it's just one week and my new schedule will start for real.

Snacking on pickled olives than on potato chips.

Found this lovely blog! Isobelle's such a talented photographer!
Via Danae.

Happy Friday Sewing.



Found this top for 2€ in a thrift store. I loved the peachy nude color and the fabric, but it did
not fit my size. I thought, with a few stitches I could make it a skirt also be worn as a top for
hot air days. And here it is! Took me about ten minutes (not including photoshooting myself)!

Wish you all a wonderful sunny weekend!

Vintage finds.



As I told you, there was another fleamarket day this saturday.
But it was a bit disappointing, because I expected it to be crowed like never and there were just
a few people there.
Nevertheless I found something: some old linen fabrics, a blue stitched cusion & an emaille jar,
I will put some lilac inside.

Enjoy sun, weekend & easter holidays everybody!

Fleamarket.




Just came back from a 2 hour fleamarket tour! I am totally done. It is really hot today, I don't
want to complain. But after the dark month of winter I need some time to get used to sun. Now
my head aches, well done, girl!
But let me show you my finds:
A large lovely plate, handcoloured, maybe ArtDeco, I am not quiet sure. Don't
know what I will do with it, but I knew, if I didn't let it come with me, I would regret it!
Then I found four lovely dishes called "Hahn und Henne"! I already have a flat
one, a soup plate and a large pot from my mum. Now I try to complete the collection step by
step! So this was a very fine find!
And thirdly I bought a lovely book with short stories about rabbits. Imprint says it is from 1911,
I can't hardly belief it, because the book is in such a good condition! And I have to confess:
I just bought it because of the lovely cover in cream and apricot!

Inspiration - vintage plant.



Found this page a few seconds ago and really liked its idea to adopt plants for growing and
selling them!

Vintage finds.



Went to the thrift store this week and found two tops, both under 5€.
Creme colored and made of light fabric. Just the right clothes for spring!

Fleamarket!






Look what I found at the first fleamarket this year! Isn't it beautiful? I longed for that kind of
lovely book about herbs for such a long time! Actually it should be a gift for a friend but I
will keep it for myself and find another for her!
And I found some cute little milk jugs! They fit perfectly to a my mocca cups.
I wish you a nice and sunny weekend and hopefully there will be bigger doom in Japan.

Thrifting!



Actually my plans for today were to go to school for scanning some older films but there is a strike going on by the train staff.
So I decided to check out a second hand store I have never been to. I found a black cardigan (€6), an amazingly green shimmering top with cute little buttons (€4) and a scarf with this nice coloured floristic print (€2)!
