Woodseats Car Boot 25 April 2011

A very delayed report on a new car boot sale we found. It was quite disappointing and very windy - I only bought three things... A ceramic dog money box, a wicker cat basket and a very intriguing bowl which has no makers mark. If anyone see this and can help figure out who might have made it please let me know as I am totally in love with it and now want more!!!

Old Dalby Day goodies

Sorry it's been so long since I last wrote anything - this selection is from a weekend at my parent's house. I got up early and didn't get lost finding the nearest car boot but it was a bit rubbish. I did buy the Wade sandwich plate and side plates and metal tray from the 1960. Oh and the little ship print for my ship wall.

The clock, christmas decorations and two ship prints were from Old Dalby Day which was much more fun and had a dog show!

Car boot bargains

I went home to my folks the other weekend and was desperate to get to a car boot. Unfortunately most of the things in our boot aren't mine my sister spied the suitcase and Prince Philip tin. However the stripy wooden deck chair at the back is all mine and only cost £1 - it made the early morning worth it.

New car boot buys...

I dragged myself out of bed last Sunday for my first car boot in ages, it was well worth the early morning. I bought an eclectic mix of items: 2 paintings one of a boxer (above) which is signed 1970 'Jason' I'm not sure if that's the name of the artist or the boxer... The other painting is from the 1970s and is labeled Leningrad and has a weird plane shaped boat? I also got the wooden rabbit which I totally fell in love with and couldn't help show it at the stall, luckily the man only wanted 50p so I didn't have to haggle.

I also got these amazing bookends (one is in the photo above) they were so dirty and unloved, one bird has his beak missing. I don't know how old they are but the man said they were from the 1930's and they're made from nuts? On further thinking maybe he was pulling my leg...

Can't think what else I found...
