These are my very special friends,treasured companions who all reside on the dresser infront of our dining room table,a jolly little motley crew,glorious examples of my passion for vintage plastic! They had become cocooned in fleecy dust jackets and had lost their plastic lustre,but after a bubble bath they are glowing and have had a little shift around,its good for them to mingle and make new friends! What a happy scene to greet sleepy heads at breakfast,how could you not smile! x</span></div>sheviehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02766498088913077576noreply@blogger.com8tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7603839019955086017.post-19659496082141690112010-06-12T15:24:00.000-07:002010-06-12T15:34:18.012-07:00wash day....<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><br />

The abandoned car boot treasures with nowhere to go,shoes cast aside in doorways,surfaces powdered with volcanic dust,boxes,bags,broken toys and as for the ironing!! I have never claimed to be a domestic goddess,but I did once at least try...I feathered my nest most prettily,even if I did sweep crumbs under the mat and fill cupboards full of strays...now,well the nest is pretty messy and we are all of a jumble,since mum became a working girl! But today we made a start,much noise has been made as all the appliances whirred and whizzed and we toiled in our labours,without a thought for those vintage housewives who struggled with their carpet sweeper and dolly tub! I think we may have skimmed the surface...but Thursday is just around the corner,and as Thursday could be the start of something special,I for one am still hoping for a miracle and looking for an empty cupboard!! </span></div><div class="separator" style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none; clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

I am having a little dalliance with kitsch,'granny chic',novelties,hideous tat....call it what you will.....I know its love,I've been here before-except where once I kept it a secret,this time I'm going public!! Devil-may-care,bold-as-brass-thats me,proud to be seen to be doing my bit for the misunderstood ornaments of this world,so I'm wondering now is this a shop I'm running or some bizarre sanctuary for abandoned china animals!!The newest inmates are surely the grandest yet,I mean golden Bambis-how very ostentatious,but these little dears are so very shy they have been hiding in Fine and Dandys 'kitsch corner' all day-I think they are a little embarrased by their appearance,I persuaded them to let me take a photo to show you all,(please don't laugh)!! So I will keep taking these foresaken creatures under my wing,hopefully re-homing a few along the way,all I ask is that next time you consider buying a china ornament-you remember that 'its for life and not just for kitschness'!

Those glorious tulips are from Mr M's allotment,every bloom has been different and they are giants,like something you would see proudly displayed by Bert in the village hall horticultural show!They have been much admired this week-so Mr M is under orders to plant more bulbs for next year-supply and demand!! Things are ticking along nicely 'int shop-tomorrow we are featured in the 'business section' of our local paper 'The Cornishman',accompanied by a much dreaded photograph-so hopefully more people will find us (though the photo might put them off!)! Today has been Boot day of course and I came away with a loaded trolley but not such a haul as the previous 2 weeks and I have to say some of the little souls I have brought home and bathed are really rather bordering on....oh I don't know...maybe the wrong side of kitsch!!Imagine if you can a gold Bambi planter with attatched thermometer....you can't can you-ok I will take some snaps tomorrow,but I warn you,you'll all want one!!</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

At the risk of causing offence here,I have to say that this is possibly THE most joyless and inappropiate tourist attraction that my beloved Cornwall has to offer,infact when you are engulfed by its 'attractions' you could be anywhere in the country-were it not for the signs,and there are plenty of those! You feel like you are on a film set,the buildings appear to have been temporarily placed-they are so at odds with the beauty mother nature has bestowed on this toe of land dipping in the sea! The 'shopping village' is an evil emporium,peddling amongst other delights-London buses and pencil sketches of Michael Jackson! The cafe even manages to vulgarise the humble pasty and serves a cream tea that surely was once labelled 'display only! We visit once a year,for one reason only-I am ashamed to say,not for the views (that also turn their back on this blot on the landscape) ,as I hate heights (even more,I hate to see my children near the edge!!) so I keep well back-no,we go only for Georges pleasure,Lands End is also-randomly-home to a rather sketchy Doctor Who exhibition,complete with dodgy mannequins displaying 'actual' costumes from recent series! I was momentarily cheered by the site of the swoonsome David Tennant (who has that geek thing going on),ok not him but his stripy suit,which I noted was alarmingly small-skinny whippet! Anyway the little fella' loves it,so we grin and bare it,all its gore,the scary creatures in their ill fitting costumes,the dodgy sets with bits falling off and Im not talking about the Doctor Who exhibition here! </span></div>sheviehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02766498088913077576noreply@blogger.com11tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7603839019955086017.post-57919786812588144192010-04-26T16:42:00.000-07:002010-04-26T16:42:00.139-07:00shopgirl in a whirl....<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhewalyKhyj3ZzMdquT5d_cKYTLts-U2P3Gw7C4pZUlK-VzgImbAGKuHkUs27HZUWhtrkikZaOhfYqWV_NL4iyRRmrmuwC6hptRlmiEWWNCpwmnWuaUAIdbSLR2_EMw2VNzlpj_B0RN_dY/s1600/CNV00181.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhewalyKhyj3ZzMdquT5d_cKYTLts-U2P3Gw7C4pZUlK-VzgImbAGKuHkUs27HZUWhtrkikZaOhfYqWV_NL4iyRRmrmuwC6hptRlmiEWWNCpwmnWuaUAIdbSLR2_EMw2VNzlpj_B0RN_dY/s400/CNV00181.JPG" tt="true" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="color: #783f04;">....well what a wonderful whirl of a week its been since we opened last Sunday-I feel that my feet have hardly touched the ground...business has been good,but that almost feels like an aside,I have had the best of times and have been truly overwhelmed by frienship and kindness! I have had the pleasure of treasured friendships,the kindling of new friendships and the joy of fleeting friendships,like the charismatic Canadian lady in her 60s and on a cruise who I met last week! She was a delight and we shared a happy half hour chatting away-she was carrying a lovely 'purse' fashioned as an airmail letter which she opened to show me her Kindle (electronic book),I want one! and a lovely wallet she had which was made from the a laminated page from a 'real' book,a copy of Little Women,she bought a notebook from me,made by mama,covered with a print taken from a vintage girls annual-it all seemed to be about books-before she retired she had taught childrens literature. She flagged down her passing husband (of just 3 years) to ask his advice on the notebook,which was a gift for a 12 year old 'Goth' whose family they were going to visit,this debonair Scottish gent was most pleased to note that I had been a demi-'Goth' myself once,'Och',he said 'theres hope,she may turn out like you one day then!'-poor kid!</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="color: #783f04;">I have also been showered with kindness this past week,I have been given some treasures which I will share with you on another day and kind words have been spoken <a href="http://loobyloo-cakefortea.blogspot.com/2010/04/fine-and-dandy.html">here</a></span> and <a href="http://belleandboo.blogspot.com/2010/04/big-hug-mug.html">here</a> -<span style="color: #783f04;">so sweet,Lucy at Blue Door brought a tear to my eye as did my dear lil' sis Sofi who wrote <a href="http://www.jessiemae.com/blog/walkabout-wednesday-fine-dandy/">this</a></span>-<span style="color: #783f04;">thankyou to you all-you've made me a happy twirly whirly shopgirl!x</span> </div>sheviehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02766498088913077576noreply@blogger.com13tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7603839019955086017.post-28521901484821474072010-04-26T13:59:00.001-07:002010-04-26T13:59:02.480-07:00Servants' Undergarments<div style="float: right; margin-left: 10px; margin-bottom: 10px;"><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/ld_photography/4494693679/" title="photo sharing"><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4069/4494693679_3be96a4831_m.jpg" alt="" style="border: solid 2px #000000;" /></a><br /><span style="font-size: 0.9em; margin-top: 0px;"><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/ld_photography/4494693679/">Servants' Undergarments</a><br />Originally uploaded by <a href="http://www.flickr.com/people/ld_photography/">LES® is more photography</a></span></div>.....this made me laugh today!!!!!!

It has been a mad couple of months making this special journey,but I can well and truly say that it has been worth the uphill climb and I now have a shop to share with my family and friends and it already feels like home! Last week is now a blur,Saturday night and Sunday morning felt like an episode of 60minute makeover,dashing about like a headless chicken and true to form I was I finished just minutes before the deadline,still making price tags at 1.45 when the grande opening was at 2pm! The sun shone in through the window all day long and we all enjoyed a selection of Mr Kiplings finest and prettiest offerings, and with so many special people around us it felt like our wedding day all over again,a delightful and memorable day that warmed my heart and killed my feet! When Monday morning came around I couldn't believe I was going to 'work' for the first time in 5 years-but of course it doesn't feel like that at the moment-this is the honeymoon period I know-I am surrounded by lovely treasures, treasured friends pop by for a chat and I am a very proud parent when customers admire my cute new baby! Today was my second day at the office,spent tweeking and fiddling,with a little bit of selling and a lot of nattering,tomorrow is my day off-its Wednesday...car boot day-so my mama is shopgirl for the day,Im sure she will undertake to chat on my behalf! For now,less of the chat lets get on with the tour,no more words,just pictures-hop to my flikr page later if you fancy a more detailed guide to the Fine and Dandy emporium....be lovely to see you any time!</span></div><div align="center"><span style="color: #783f04;">I will start from the door and do a full sweep!</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjHwyDhC849Wi9Qfj_ECIlg4SbKCZ6YbWpf7y6hE3gjXyXd5_GYJC7Wbmn7eZNEWXQ49gb1rsweyf0ecW82HCFBeKuTLjdQGMaRLQezXNShEld0pecpyBg8XX8jCtwyHK5yZ3_6FRHaH6U/s1600/opening+day+017.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="200" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjHwyDhC849Wi9Qfj_ECIlg4SbKCZ6YbWpf7y6hE3gjXyXd5_GYJC7Wbmn7eZNEWXQ49gb1rsweyf0ecW82HCFBeKuTLjdQGMaRLQezXNShEld0pecpyBg8XX8jCtwyHK5yZ3_6FRHaH6U/s200/opening+day+017.JPG" width="150" wt="true" /></a><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgpdRyFZbZPyQ9DAOPaAtl5ptjTibkxQxpsNci9pdkdChIFg_7XedjXvtB15d1bC-5Zo-2i_VZPicRdySpgUfqTSRYp6IqwRQEXyHcPC0P0kkh4vJAV5Z8r1Jk5ZeD6YWdea9_g5enOe1c/s1600/opening+day+029.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="200" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgpdRyFZbZPyQ9DAOPaAtl5ptjTibkxQxpsNci9pdkdChIFg_7XedjXvtB15d1bC-5Zo-2i_VZPicRdySpgUfqTSRYp6IqwRQEXyHcPC0P0kkh4vJAV5Z8r1Jk5ZeD6YWdea9_g5enOe1c/s200/opening+day+029.JPG" width="150" wt="true" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

Todays was only the 2nd one of the year,Tonsilitis prevented me from cruising the aisles at the 1st meet of the year,I lay in my bed that day imaging all those little lost souls waiting for me to save them from the grassy blankets & wonky tressle tables & I shed a tear! Waking on a Wednesday is all about the weather,with the added pressure today of 2 mini-booters,keen as mustard to rifle through the piles of plastic-dreary,overcast-perfect! So much treasure to be had today and at give away prices (I have been known to give more than the asking price,if its too low- just to make the little lost souls feel more worthy,well I mean-2p-thats just an insult to any old china,'aint it!).Todays haul was almost all ceramic,6 jugs,2 vases,bird cruets,50s childs mug,2 Coronation mugs-also 40s sewing book,splendid buttons from a lady who was selling her vast collection 'Do you like buttons',she asked...'oh,I have lots more at home...& I founded a button society in London'....I was fit to follow her home!...ooh I just remembered 2 more bits of china-the most gorgeous 50s wall pocket with a kitsch blue lamb on it & a shell dish for my seaglass....a rosie enamel bowl....cuddly toy,teasmaid....ok,not the last 2! I will show you,but all the goods are still nestled in my shopping trolley & in desperate need of a wash! Thats the best bit,unpacking all the treasures you had forgotten about-the worst bit,the odd occasion when you get home only to find that your treasure has turned into tatty old junk-or worse maybe,that you left something behind! Oh yes,the hanger.....mama had a stall today & was all packed up ready to go home,I popped back to pick up my spoils when what should I spot lying all folorn on the deserted field but this little dear,surely a relative of the Wimpy 'found' hanger....I've said it before,but,you could'nt write it!! </span></div>sheviehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02766498088913077576noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7603839019955086017.post-11798267042937951902010-04-13T15:30:00.000-07:002010-04-13T15:30:25.648-07:00going home....<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhRTtNJpnkUQEgK4CEZlJ_4V6GbQMCkHfIKU-xxeOerqzjbHUrOC5ESPJ9tNGoloMMDSN4Aeg2kzp2uOVjYW51VcaKzkciO7c2ysx7FPUdqzSQqhUvbCzkCfD0MvZnbHxUU0jcuSG7rRSU/s1600/005.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhRTtNJpnkUQEgK4CEZlJ_4V6GbQMCkHfIKU-xxeOerqzjbHUrOC5ESPJ9tNGoloMMDSN4Aeg2kzp2uOVjYW51VcaKzkciO7c2ysx7FPUdqzSQqhUvbCzkCfD0MvZnbHxUU0jcuSG7rRSU/s640/005.JPG" width="640" wt="true" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="color: #783f04;">....just wanted to share this with you-the view on my way home from the shop tonight!

Maybe the same could be said for the special people we surround ourselves with too,familiarity makes us a little complacent,then perhaps something happens that makes us remember.I never forget that I am blessed with a life that makes me very happy and I love my family and friends beyond words,never more so than at the moment when I feel their comforting embrace so keenly. The past few weeks have as predicted been an uphill climb with some very stony ground and the arduous journey has taken its toll,mentally and physically-I could not have carried my load without their help and encouagement.When you want something special and you work hard to get it,you treasure it all the more,so the shop will be all the more precious for being a true labour of love.We are so nearly at journeys end,sunshine is around the corner calling us onwards!</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

It is in a lovely spot,set back from the main square on the end of a row of rather splendid 4 storey town houses-next door is very posh,with splendid pillars-we are a little shabby just now but some fresh paint & a shiny new door will soon help us to fit in!

Inside we decided it was worth doing a proper job of things,so we ripped down the bobbly wallpaper with glee & Mr M ripped out a very dodgy sink which was lurking in an arched alcove,we also tore up the dusty carpet & of course made things look even worse!
