Ellie and I have been roaming the local Antique shops in awe the past few days.
I was thrilled to see her in love with so many things.
Wanting to bring home lounges with a price tag of $19,790 aus
I let her expand on her ever growing collection of National Geographic with editions from 1955.
In honor of Heathers Vintage Swaps 2009 and the fact i just past my 100th post its time for another giveaway!
We have 3 wonderful dress patterns from Australian Home Journal Co in Sydney NSW
2 Paragon Knitting books No.41 and 25
3 Butterick dress and skirt patterns and 1 Simplicity Blouse pattern
7 very vintage doileys, most i can see are hand made
And Lastly "Running a house without help" by Rose Henniker Heaton 1949
Filled with recipes, advice, poems and funny stories
I love vintage books on house management (hint hint swap partner!)

" Little things that make for trouble:
Lighting the fire with the Radio Times,
Leaving the garage key in a new place,
Leaving the car out all night,
Forgetting to restoke the broiler,
and above all,
Feeding fido the fillet of steak"

What treasures you've found!!! I have enjoyed reading the vintage swap blog, even though I missed the sign ups.
Congratulations on your 100th post!!! Can i say that i love those patterns but it takes so long to use them because they are made for Marylin-Munroesque voluptuous women and i am a stick!! But it's worth the effort because of the fact that it's a "Matron dress" !!! I love it!!!
Happy 100th post! it's so nice of you to share your treasures.
Wow, great finds! The book is especially nice. I have a very small collection of vintage home management books, but this one looks extra lovely.
