Look what I found in the local charity shop this week… I LOVE them!
Guess how little they cost me?
I’m so delighted with these. They’ll be perfect for making teacup scented candles for friends at Christmas!
What’s the best thing you’ve ever found in a charity shop?

WOW! These are just beautiful. What a great find!! I’ve found several darling tea cups at charity shops, but you win!! Be sure to post a photo when you make them into candles. I’d love to see the finished product.

Thanks Kristen! I will definitely post a follow-up pic once I’ve added the candle bit 🙂

Wool. Lots and lots of lovely vintage, untouched, English rare breed sheep wool. And patterns to match : )

Wow – rare breed sheep wool – that sounds like it should be very expensive…?! I love charity shop mooching – never know what treasures you might find 😀

Love these! The look sort of jadeite-esque, which I’m so into right now. Great find!

Thanks Lauren 😀 I worried that this post might seem a bit smug, but I really am just genuinely pleased with my bargain and wanted to share them!

Thanks Katie!
Don’t they though? I think they will be super-festive once I’ve finished and wrapped them up 🙂
