I almost skipped out of Hazelbrook Cottage Antiques after finding and purchasing this lovely box of colour-coded cotton. I don't know about you, but I have always found the antique shop trail along the Blue Mountains a little too pricey and dare I say sometimes 'twee'. I was proven wrong with this little gem (if you have any favourites, please let me know). Next time you are passing the gateway to Western New South Wales, make sure you stop in at 33 Railway Parade Hazelbrook. I'm sure you will want to buy something from the eclectic range.
I love that mannequin, does it have little brooches pinned to it? looks very pretty

Beautiful bobbins, a lovely find!
ReplyDeleteHi Oliia, yes, the mannequin had vintage brooches pinned to it - very sweet.
ReplyDeleteThose spools of cotton are hard to come by here in Vancouver. I love the colours.
ReplyDeleteI just was wondering through cyberspace and found your gem of a blog Briar. It made my day! From cooking, to shopping, to just having a great eye and super style- this is my new favourite blog. I think we should probably be besties!

Thank you Justine, that is such a nice message to read. Briar
