In recent times, I have become a very selective Op shopper and often walk away empty handed. Before last year my life was too cluttered to dare add to it, and now that we have streamlined I would hate to become a pack rat again. Something has to be really special or I have to be certain that we will use it.
The girls use these silver napkin rings most nights and at the bargain price of 25c they are certainly my best find.
You can see the growing list of This Is players at Three Buttons.
Edited to answer questions asked in comments: I found the napkin rings at a store on the Gold Coast, Australia long before we moved to Dubai. Sadly I have not seen any thift stores / op shops here. Although I hear that there are some around.
The gorgeous napkins and matching table cloth come from Butlers, a German chain of homewears stores that are all around Europe and as it happens, my local in Dubai.
What a pick up! Cute napkins too!
ReplyDeleteThey're really pretty....what a fab find!
ReplyDeleteSuch a sweet find, Lisa. I love the napkins too :)
ReplyDeleteI'm like you - it has to be special for me to buy something cos I'm a bit of a hoarder :P I love your napkin holders and napkins though, they are gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteThose are gorgeous napkin holders - what about those napkins?? They are sweeeet!
ReplyDeleteI know what you mean about keeping it streamlined....I also have to think twice before I bring something home. But then at 25c those napkin rings have well been worth it. Love the birdy print.
ReplyDeleteLovely. Oh, I wish we had op shops in Slovenia. Thanks God for three moonths of England :o)
ReplyDeleteAnd I LOVE the birdy print!!!
The napkins are awesome! I'm in love with that fabric. Where did you get them?
ReplyDeletethey are so sweet - love the star design! Where did you find those lovely napkins?
ReplyDeleteI think they are adorable. It is really easy to go crazy and just end up buying more clutter than your house can hold. I'm in awe of your restraint...I'm working on it myself.
ReplyDeleteI'm wondering if you found these in Dubai. I don't recall thrift shops out there in the Gulf but then I know I didn't see everything.
ReplyDeleteLovely little rings.
They are so sweet. I too love the napkins!
ReplyDeleteVery cute. I also love the bird tablecloth and napkins.
ReplyDeleteTerrific find! I am quite selective when op shopping as well but it is always a thrill to find a treasure or two.
ReplyDeleteWow! I think this is my favourite of the "op shop finds", how great to find something so beautiful and that is loved and used every night! The napkins are stunning too.
ReplyDeleteGood find - those napkin rings are beautiful. And isn't it lucky they don't take up much space!
