A late entry for WOYWW221

Good afternoon all. Being Wednesday it is the day that Julia, from Stamping Ground, has deemed the correct day to show the world what state your workplace is! I'm late today as I got engrossed in a book by Joseph Prince; Destined to Reign and lost all track of time. Which is not a bad thing I don't think. So, here it is, mainly full of boot fair bargains that I could not resist. This is the overview.....
 In the back right, the weirdest assortment of beachcombing  bits and some poppy seeds too!
 This gorgeous belt was irresistible at £1.00. Just beautiful details and loads of them once I dismantle it.
 Two of these glass fronted units, again at less than a pound each I could not leave them there. I actually have one already so now I have 3 and I am now getting the idea of what I want to do with them! Next to them are a couple of packs of recipe cards. Alyssa was saying she wanted to write down some of the favourite recipes we use to take with her to Uni so these were ideal.
 I was pleased to find this wireform too as I have been thinking of creating a sculpture for a while now so now I can begin. And yes, that is a fine bone china cup and saucer along with a vase of matching flowers! And no, it is not going to remain that way for very long!
So, once again, not a huge amount of work to see on my desk, but a host of possibilities for the future!

It is amazing what you can find on a beach isn't it? I love all your car-boot purchases. You obviously have an eye for a bargain. I can't help but wonder what you are going to do with the pretty cup and flowers? Kate x #61

Ok so,you've gotten our attention with the cup n sauce 'stay tuned' hint.... :) Just love all of your finds. Would be nice if there were boot sales like this in the states at least closer to me. Maybe I'll take a cruise over and fill my stateroom with car boot finds. :)) Happy WOYWW! Nan G #21

Good heavens! It might be worth my while to fly over to these car boot sales as I can't believe what you pic up for under a Pound! Sorry for the late visit, but we were without internet yesterday due to a huge storm! #63
