Flea market finds from Posh

Not much to say today, other than my new love is the 'Flea market finds' section of Posh Chicago - all their wares are beautifully photographed and I find myself thinking "Mmmm, I wonder how often they upload new stock? I wonder if they freight to Australia? I wonder..."

Check it out...

Shoe lasts made to last

Colourful vintage tins

Old books - I love the one with the floral cover


Mexican yoyos

Apothecary bottles


Not sure what these are or what you'd use them for, but they look gorgeous anyway

Watch faces

    Oh Lee you've made my day - I just love POSH too! I've been lucky enough to have a scrounge around in person & it's the sort of place you never want to leave, trust me.

    OH Lee I think we should go shopping USA! I want the books, the clock faces, the apothecary bottles, the little thingies we don't know what they are, and of course your favourite; the shoe lasts!

    Want want want! (greedy Julie)

    Hi There. Me again. Thanks for your comments on my 'moon'. To be honest, I can never remember which is apogee and which is perigee. I had to look up Museum Victoria (my favourite source for moon phases). Cheers: Julie

    Wow...those Mexican yoyos are just fantastic! So unusual. A bowl of them would make quite the centerpiece.

    Lee, those little round number blocks are vintage bingo numbers. My Mom plays bingo all the time she would get a kick out of seeing these.
