Friday Find

No 6 - Wade figures

As a lifelong collecter and hoarder I have boxes full of stuff that doesn't get to see the light of day very often. Things I'm attached to from childhood and bits and bobs I've picked up over the years because I like the look of them.

It's time for a clear out!

These will be first to go - I've had them since the 1960's, they live in a shoebox and, if Ebay is to be believed, a few of them are very rare and worth a fine penny or two.








They'll be going into our new shop 'Kettle of Fish Vintage' on Etsy next week.

Along with this little beauty...


See you there!

Vintage bunnies

I'm a bit of a hoarder. I like to have things around me that are beautiful to look at, to pick up and handle, to use and to treasure. I know beauty is in the eye of the beholder but I'm also lucky that the future Mr Kettle loves the stuff that came with me!


My collections influence our home and my work.




This handsome ceramic rabbit inspired the Easter bunnies that are in my Folksy shop now. He was a birthday present from a friend at college almost 26 years ago and has only suffered minor ear damage in all that time! 


He was the start of a mini collection but is still my favourite by far.
