antique mania

I went a bit manic at a 'loppis' shop and local antique fair on the weekend.

It wasn't my intention at all, but I just got such beautiful things

for such a great price I just couldn't stop.

I completely blame my on going obsession with House of Elliot, To the Manor Born and other English, tea drinking, silk and sequin wearing type shows.

(Also I was alone which means there was no one to explain impractical purchases to!)
