It was a terribly stormy day today in Aberdeen! Had a meeting in town first after which I went to see an art exhibition at Peacock Visual Arts’ gallery. I got almost blown away by a hurricane hitting the city when I came out…! Luckily there are always a charity shop or two to dive into – for some shelter and some treasure hunting.
Found some lovely treasures indeed.
A beautiful vintage milk or water jug from the 60s or 70s, in super condition. Very nice blue-grey colour. Looking great in my living room already.
I also found a wonderful stone beer bottle from the 19th century, and in perfect condition too. It originally had a cork (before someone drank the beer!). I love text on decorative items and this name and address makes the bottle a bit mysterious…need to do some more googling on Mr C. Welch! If anyone knows who he is (or rather, was), do let me know…
Grogeous finds! would love to see pics of your finds over at our new facebook page at http://www.facebook.com/#!/pages/mycharityshopcom/117876411611364
Trying to spread the word! 🙂
