vintage

I have been really lucky on ebay recently and managed to win a few 'vintage' pieces for the house while not paying a small fortune. This morning a parcel arrived for me which I was really excited about! Not sure you will be though!!

A vintage washboard!



I love it and it seems to be the right shade of duck egg blue to match my other accessories. By the way the laundry tin is actually full of dog food!



What do you think?

  8. Hi Susan, so happy to have come across your blog. Love your ebay finds, wish I could do this more (but living away from home in the UK) makes postage so high. The duck egg blue is gorgeous! Catherine x
