Hello dears.

 I'm Little Sister Fanny and I'm a self confessed charity shopping fanatic! Its my favourite thing to do (apart from drinking tea) and I've spent years collecting clothes, books and other wonderful nicknacks.  So I thought why don't I show the world what I've found and see if I can give anyone else the charity shopping bug.  


Here's just a few things I bought recently although I've got lots of lovely things stashed away so be prepared for some back cataloguing!


What a beauty this is!  I found this copy of Little Women and Good Wives in the Treetops Hospice Shop for 50p!  I love the art deco cover and it has an inscription inside...





... Ivy Pilgrim, now that's a winning name if ever I heard one.  If anyone can read the last word please tell because its been bugging me since I bought it.




Now I know this one is going to be a little bit controversial but...




... how could I resist! It was only £6 from the Headway shop! and before you ask yes it is real fur.  Now I'm not usually a fur person but I didn't think those ickle bunnies who gave their lives for this coat would want to be left in a charity shop.  Surely using the coat would be the best way to remember their sacrifice plus it looks really good on me.  So moving on...




This lovely metal plate was from Treetops Hospice for £1.  I thought it was pretty.  That's about it.






And so onto the final item of the day.


Just to let you know I have a thing about teacups and teapots so expect to see quite a few on here.  There just so pretty and I can't bare to see them sat on those dusty shelves with the other bric-a-brac when they could be loved and adored by me.  So we'll start off with this beauty...




Its called Violetta and I think was £1.45 from the Lighthouse charity shop.  I love the colours and it will go nicely with my collection.






So there ends my first post.  I hope you liked it and I'll put more up very soon.  Laters potaters.
