    Out and About: Junk shop finds

    8 Feb 2016

    Sometimes I wander down from the shop through Cape Town, just stretching my legs. One place I like to stop in at is the St George’s Bric-a-brac shop next to the Cathedral. I’m trying to not buy things, and find a very good alternative is taking a snap to share with others.  So here we go, in the interests of a clutter-free life: my junk shop finds on Friday.

    Those birds, the repeating design, the texture… I’m not sure it’s the recipe for a bestselling cover, but I do like looking at it.

    Eh? That looks like an ethnic ecclesiastical version of the Skinny laMinx logo!

    How intriguing!

    But… I don’t have a fireplace.

    If you like vintage book covers, take a look at this post from last year, and also at Fine Little Day’s book cover page on Pinterest.

      I am intrigued by the Dahlia in Australia book. It’s gorgeous and a sign of the time given the new types out all the time for that beauty.
