Well, that's a busy title but I have lots of photos and updates for you. Firstly I have had chance to get back to doll-making and created two new girls who are now residing in the lovely shop,
La Vie en Rose awaiting new owners.
I have also been making bunting. As I previously mentioned, I bought a Toile du Jouy/gingham duvet and pillow from a charity shop and created a cushion and tablecloths for the patio set. The bunting is now complete, and I have made vintage-style royal wedding bunting from old Union Flag material and nautical-themed bunting from charity shop shirts.
Finally, Hurray! Some great new charity shop purchases yesterday! These included the first red shoes I have had since childhood. They are quite vintagey with their pretty suede bows, not as sparkly as Dorothy's but I'm very satisfied with them.

The next item is a metal plaque for 50p that defines all that is vintage and the final item a tatty little "leather" covered footstool for £2. Watch out for this being completely reworked at a later date.
