A Look Inside - AHJ April 1951

This month was full of more word and adds then I've seen before, somethings never change. There are some nice photo's of hair styles and interesting adds.

Let me know what you think of the baby vicks add, we still have some of it in the house and use it often.

A Look Inside - AHJ July 1957

I thought a bit of winter was called for, since it's still cold outside and the sun is shinning. It's like when it rain and your still so hot you think your going to boil. Our weather is in a class of it's own some times.

Enjoy the look see. Sorry this one is a bit worse for wear.

Vintage Finds

A few weeks ago my farther told me about a cute little vintage house in town "That I just had to go see." While it took me awhile to get the time to find it it was well worth it. Love Lucy Vintage Boutique is just so cute, and such a lovely find right in the heart of the city.

I picked up two scarfs and a purse for myself and ordered some new shoes. I will be popping in again as it's not far from work.

 The pures still had a little ticket inside that I've kept. It reminds me of the old movie tickets, and even it's it's not that old I don't want to know, it's just such a cute touch.

Till next time, happy hunting.

A Look Inside - November 1954

It's been awhile since I posted but I'm sure your all going to like this.

This in the inside of Australian Home Journal from November 1954, remember here in Australia November is the start of summer for us. Which explains all the lovely frocks inside! Enjoy.

In the Garden

The vegy garden was a common part of life in more vintage times. Our families were asked to grown there own food to help with the war effort and this continued for some time after the war. I have also see a number of garden layouts and plans in many of my book and magazines. A must have for everyone was the lemon tree, this we put in the first year we moved into our home. Since sewing has all but stopped I have been putting my extra energy into our garden (and my new part-time job, more on that later).
