As promised, here are some photos of my finds from the Bank Holiday Monday Taplow carboot sale. It was quite a trek to get there (bus/tube/train/bus) but the 3 additions to my fawn family and the 6 (!) additions to my owl tribe made it all very worth while. I really am a bric-a-brac bargain hunter!
Like all suburban carboot sales the majority of stalls were quite scary - lots of children's toys and Soldier Soldier videos. We looked for pitches with older owners who might be clearing out the attic and looking to sell lots of unused items from the 60s/70s (that's carboot heaven to me, and I usually let out a few shrieks). After a good 4 hours of rummaging, my purchases included a 1970s Small Faces tee, 12 babycham glasses, a handful of 1980s sew-on patches (including sneakers and bunnies - great for my Crafty Cuffs), a Creme Egg vinyl apron and mugs (shaped as egg cups, he he), 4 Jackie Annuals (including one from 1979) and 3 unused 1960s towels that I'm going to make into washbags.
It was a great day out, apart from my sun burnt arms, sore feet (I knew I shouldn't have worn my new Birkenstocks) and I managed to break one of my glasses when I was setting up the picture for you kids. Silly ol' me.

It'd be cool if babycham charms were available to buy but i wouldn't know where 2 find them. Would u know anywhere in Dublin that would sell all the pretty vintage charms you've stocked up on?
