Saturday Shopping list with a vintage touch


I planned to go to a sale of vintage stuff with my blog friendVeerle, we promised each other to have a cup of coffee and a chat afterwards.

You can imagine my disappointment when I stood up this morning and found a little note from hubby that he already left for a lecture in Utrecht. He totally forgot to tell me before!!!
I could not find a babysitter, but Maia (the eldest) was willingly to look after the little kids
and I promised her to keep in touch with my mobile.

So far so good, I went to Ghent and did some quick vintage shopping with Veerle, but we could not have our cuppa, as I did not wanted to leave the kids alone for long...
So Veerle, we'll enjoy that cup next saturday and have yummie muffin surplus !!! :-)


I bought some awesome vintage treasures (will show the later) to make future creations.
And this explains why my Saturday shopping list is all about vintage or stuff created with vintage findings. Do browse the shops of these artists, they have the most beautiful things :-)

Great Saturday picks. I'm a mom of four two, but an English teacher, not a designer. I have a completely out of control life that I love and have begun blogging. Come see me some time.

Oh, goodness. I just realized I used the wrong to/two/too in my comment. That is not very English teacher like! Yikes.

Danielle, again.
