SECOND TIME LUCKY

Well I had to dash off in a hurry last night to watch my favorite show ( Offspring in case you missed last nights post) and it was well worth it! So now I am going to try and upload the photos meant for yesterday, fingers crossed that Blogger is going to co operate tonight!

Our new little rustic table- I think this one is a keeper

The front view of the stall- jam packed with Vintage goodies

O.k so one at a time seems to work! I am at the Vintage shed tomorrow and we are welcoming a new stall holder, hopefully I can get a few shots and give you a preview in the next few days.. Simone xx

Wednesday Again

Well a week has passed and I am pleased to say that Bec and  i were once again working very hard at the office! Not a lot of painting today, just tidying, pricing and more tidying.

I think Bec and I are both feeling a bit overwhelmed at the moment- our little business is growing each week- our stall is evolving all the time, stock is flying out the door and amongst this we both have boys ( big and little) and it really doesn't leave much time for anything else.I am looking forward to the school holidays, no mad dashes to get ready in the morning and be out the door for 8.30.

Anyway I am rattling on so I will leave you with a few pictures of the stall and the cutest little table I picked up recently..

Some of our hard work from last week displayed at the stall

another little corner of the stall.

Mmmm for some reason I cant upload anymore photos?? Blogger seems to give me two and that's it- the same thing happened last week, so I guess I will try again tomorrow. I have to run my favourite favourite show Offspring is on! Bye for now xx

Back to work

After a very lazy day yesterday-( and yes I did get through that stack of magazines) today Bec and I did lots of work in  my garage our Vintage girl office. We have had lots of projects that have been mounting up for weeks and time was up- the sanders,paint and tools came out! We had a really productive day and every 5 minutes one of us would say 'this is fun, we are getting heaps done- we should do this every week' so next Wednesday Bec?

We also got some milk bottles that I am so excited about- they are huge and the graphics are amazing..I have never really seen anything like them before and I am pretty sure if Bec heard me say 'I love these, they are amazing' one more time today she was going to end our partnership!!

The bottles will be headed with to the stall tomorrow along with some of our handy work from today.

Lots of work going on today- very messy business!

the photos don't really do these the justice- did I mention how much I love them?

That's it for now- I will be back soon to show some changes at the stall xx Simone

Brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

Hi everyone, hope your week has been good so far- those of you who are in Melbourne will identify with the title of this post- it is cold wet and rainy in Melbourne and after working all weekend at the Vintage Shed I am catching up on boring stuff like housework, playing cars ( the joys of being surrounded by boys!)and now that I have finally convinced my two year old that he really still needs a little nap to get him through the day, I am indulging in a little magazine therapy- although its bordering on obsession.My local newsagent knows me well as I start stalking them at the beginning of the month and its always a little bit like Christmas when I see a shiny new issue of one of my  favourite mags come out.

obsession? no



sleeping peacefully after much protesting

Speaking of magazines, I know that blogger has been having a few issues in the last week so I am hoping this is why we haven't managed to catch our competition winner? So Debbie Mcintyre if you are reading this could you send us a quick message at vintagegirl@hotmail.com.au we can get your  magazine subscription organised and you wont have to stalk your newsagent like me!

Have a great week and stay warm xx

P.S I am so in love with the flags Bec posted about yesterday, thinking I might have to stash one for my future dream forever house..

Ahoy there.....

If you are as indulgent as I am, you will know the golden rule of Indulgence.....

"if something good comes your way.....do not stop at 1!"

So we didn't- we stopped at 15 (and only because our bank balance had the last word.)

Here are just some of the fabulous vintage nautical flags we purchased today. A gorgeous feature in a childs bedroom, industrial style lounge, just about anywhere really....

There are a couple listed in our Ebay store. http://stores.shop.ebay.com.au/melbournevintagegirl
Any enquiries, shoot us an email at vintagegirl@hotmail.com.au  they won't last long!!! eye eye to be sure...

vintage girl at the vintage shed....this week

Simone and I spent Thursday re-jigging the stall and getting some new larger pieces in...including an industrial bakers trolley which is just what we needed to stack all our trunks and boxes onto! It looks fabulous and already has a few admirers- but sorry guys- it's not for sale just yet-

and some random photos of stock this week.....

Going to have to be quicker with our posts in future as much of this stock sold over the weekend....
Next time we will post thursday- straight after new stock has gone in....

Back soon with some amazing new stock that just came to us today.....

Septembre Vintage

Hi everybody, I wanted to let you know all about another stall holder at the Vintage Shed who makes her own jewellery and I think definitely wins the prize for the nicest/sweetest person at the shed ! Virginie is the owner of Septembre Vintage, she has a great eye for vintage pieces and as I said before she makes the cutest jewellery some of which is adorned with  ceramic butterfly's and hearts that she makes  and fires in her own kiln at home. Her stall is E9, so come check it out and you can also check out here at septembrevintage.blogspot.com/



A little preview of Virginie's beautiful handmade jewellery

That's it for now, I will be back later with a sneak peek of our new look stall ( Becs been down there today working her magic!)
