Amazing handmade decoupage bowl

Written on Friday, April 25th, 2008 :: 0 comments to this post

This striking decorative bowl is hand made using decoupage/collage techniques by AIDS patients in South Africa.

This would make a great and unusual gift for the ethically minded or lover of unique handmade recycled products.

We have these bowls in a few other designs and colours coming up over the next week and they are now ONLY AVAILABLE IN OUR EBAY STORE so don’t miss out!

Vintage style shabby rose carpet runner chic home decor

Written on Monday, January 7th, 2008 :: 0 comments to this post

Hi we have a vintage style hall runner which is  1 1/4 metres long and had been in use for some time so not in perfect order. It is 63 cm wide and has lovely pink roses and green leaves pattern on a cream and beige background. This would be great for a period home or shabby chic style interior.

Please look at the photo’s as these form part of the description - please don’t buy this if you are expecting a new runner as this has been well used and showing the signs of age. It would come up a treat if the buyer were to steam clean. Looks great on polished floorboards as pictured.

button top knitting needles for the collector

Written on Wednesday, August 22nd, 2007 :: 0 comments to this post

These are very old and are assorted colors as photographed - mostly lovely pale greens, creams and pinks. There are 7 pairs all together colored knitting needles all with coloured button tops . All pairs are very old and look like they are bakelite ? I have another lot for sale at the same time so have a look at the others as we are always happy to combine on postage.

I have tried to take lots of photo’s so you can see them clearly if you need to ask me a question I am always happy to help but I know little about these collectors items. No idea of the sizes as none evident or else I just can’t see for looking. So no real idea of the sizes you will have to size using knitting needle gauge.
