Friday morning was one where all you want to do is call in sick and roll over back to bed. Instead I decided to drag myself into the office and request an afternoons holiday. At 12.30pm I happily skipped out of work with the whole afternoon ahead of me. On my way home I stopped to do a little thrifting - here's what I found
Later that evening my SIL and I went to see Coraline
It was a great film if not a little scary in parts (or maybe we're both big babies!!). We both said how peaceful it seemed and described it like reading a book . Let me know what you thought if you've seen it
Hope you all have a fantastic weekend
Mmmm an afternoon thrifting and then the cinema, that sounds like a lovely day! Those little dolls are so sweet.

Wonderful finds! I really wish I could shop for old stuff... we don't really have thrift shops around where I live and not even charity shops :( weird, isn't it?
ReplyDeleteLovely blog design by the way! :)
Lovely! I like the NY music too - so evocative...
ReplyDeleteWe've just got back from watching Coraline with our 2 boys and thought it was absolutely fab, and yes quite scary! Great animation though.
ReplyDeleteLovely purchases you have there.x
Sounds like a perfect afternoon to me! Nice little things you picked up thrifting! Have a great weekend!
ReplyDeleteCan't believe what you said about Coraline!...its EXACTLY what my son and I said about it; like reading a book...there was silence around the pictures and it allowed you to think about it...
ReplyDeletelovely new blog home too...
