yep.....storage containers!! Tricia is selling a lot of display items from the shop and I bought these to use in the sewing room.....when I can get them in there!!!...at the moment they are sitting outside the door!! I did get in there today and spent some time working out whether to sew and then clean or clean and then sew.......I knew if I cleaned first I wouldn't get any sewing done....so I sewed.......pics later.....
........and I just liked them as well...!!
I found a little gift/homewares shop in Loxton and discovered it was having a sale.......last time I was there this cute little cupboard almost came home with me but I thought it was a bit too expensive.....but this time it was marked down to half price...........no contest!!
These words also came home with me.........
When I got home yesterday I unpacked the car and went food shopping - on the way back from the supermarket I stopped by to check on the progress of Mark's house......I was surprised to see the frame up since the timber was only delivered on Friday........
.........you would think he would do something about his front yard though!!! LOL......the windows were delivered today so if they are still there tomorrow they will be in next.......!
.....I have had a refreshing few days off.....and enjoyed spending the entire day in the sewing room today.....!
'Til next time......................Lorraine

Oh that star cupboard.... you lucky girl! That needs to come and live with me :o) Enjoy your sewing time!
I have some of the spools just sitting (from the first time I went to Loxton) around ric rac holders is a good idea. love the cupboard, my room has no more room for storage but still I pile more in...
hahaha.... you'd think Mark would have tidied the house a bit before you went over to visit!! ;) LOL! Good buys.... they all look beautiful.... expecially the cupboard!! LOVE IT!
What great treasures you bought. That cupboard sure is nice. I can see why you wanted it. Hugs, Jeanette
Ooooh, you got the best stuff!!! That cupboard is just adorable, I think I would have grabbed it even if it wasn't on special lol ;o)!! I'm in love with the ric rac on the old bobbins too. Great finds Lorraine!!
Hugs,
Joy :o)
I love all your purchases especially the white cupboard. Oh what fun you will have putting everything away. Mark's house is moving right along. Enjoy your days off.
I am so glad you found so many goodies! That sounds like a great place to shop...I love your little punch tin cupboard...wonderful! I have one spool like that, and love it.
I'm especially loving your bobbins and that beautiful cabinet!
What treasures! I absolutely love those bobbins! you were lucky to be able to snatch them up! And that cabinet is adorable! storage galore...
I am pea green! What a great haul. Your sewing room is going to be beautiful. Can't believe how quickly Mark's house is coming along.
WOW Loz Great purchases ... and boy do I love that little cupboard ... if you cant find a home for it I would happily take it off your hands for you :) Love all the colouring you did in your previous post as well ... pleased for you that your wayward mojo returned, damn decent of her. Sad to see that Tricia is closing ... July wont be the same without a trip to Loxton, pleased you managed to get one more in.
Cheers Sue
ps good to see Marks place coming along .... once they get going they seem to move along pretty quickly.
I'm making my Monday holiday a sewing day--it's "Labor Day" here in the US and luckily I only have to work at one of my jobs! Those spindles are great looking and all your storage goodies just as great. Hope they help you corral the fabric and such!
Love all the containers you bought and adore the cupboard. I would have had to fight you for that one if I was there LOL
Hey Lorraine! Ooooohh!! Love that tray with the corrigated iron bottom in it ... and am having serious cupboard-envy over your cute new cupboard! I'm sure it would look much nicer in my lounge room! Tee! Hee! Hee! Enjoy all your new goodies! Bear Hugs! KRIS
As you can tell from all the comments, there are a lot of envious gals out here in blogland, after looking at your purchases. I'm absolutely drooling over that cupboard and the spools.
What a lot of lovely purchases you made in Loxton. I presume that gift shop was LaVilla? If so, that is moving to where Tricia's shop is now, so you'll have to come back and visit later in the year!!
Lucky you, I love the little cupboard.
Some very nice purchased there that little car must have been nearly overloaded on the way home. The house is looking great.
