I'm not sure what this is supposed to be, possibly a handkerchief holder or similar but it's another favorite i picked up in a opshop years ago. Lovely silky lining & it's in great condition.
I've had this trinket box for many years and it's one of my absolute favorite things, I don't mind that it's a bit battered, it adds to the charm I think.
It's very heavy and some sort of cast iron and I've never seen anything quite like it.
Another from my bag collection I scored at a opshop years ago.
Has a few flaws but not too bad and the embroidery is so pretty, not sure what was up with the black gravel like detail at the top though.
Guessing it's 60s

I found this clutch bag/purse in a opshop a few years ago still with invoice neatly folded inside.
It's a favorite in my collection, the detail is just gorgeous.
Another that's not such a fun toy this is miniature at about 9.5cm
I've seen the Lady Dover ones online but none have a cord like this one
Don't know if you would class these as toys or if they are just decorative but I think they are cute
Just wanted to show off a vintage bag I scored at a opshop a few years ago.
Still has the handwritten invoice inside.
Here's a couple of my old Mickey Mouse toys
Mr Potato Head & his friend Katie the Carrot.
This is one of my favorite finds I've had for maybe 30 years.
I believe it's from the 60s & all the pieces are there.
I love the box even though it's a bit faded.
I know I say it all the time but they are the weirdest creatures but in the best possible way.
I was in another room & Dolce is screeching like she's being murdered so I come out to see what the fuss is & of course she instantly shuts down the noise but she's managed to get her toy on her back & looks certifiable 🤣
The toy she has had since she was a baby & he's named Mr Snow, she goes nowhere without him & will even give him a kiss on command.
He's a old baby rattle with a hole in the middle & lately she's discovered she can put her head through the middle & wear him but I've yet to get a photo of that, she's very anti paparazzi.
Mr Snow is on his last legs & I don't know what I'm going to do when he loses the last bits of thread holding him together. I put him through the wash a couple of days ago & when he's not around she won't step up or anything. I've tried various other rattles that are nearly the same but she rejects every single one so I've made do & sewed his head back together but he's looking rough.
A 10 year love affair of the sweetest kind ❤️☃️
I love these 60s rubber dog & cat, again I've had in my possession for 25ish years & they are treasured.
The dogs collar even has a wee rhinestone.
I just adore the wee faces on these.
This is Snoopy still in good condition considering age.
Still has his tail but it's a bit bent.
From the 60s I believe but I've had him for about 25ish years.
Going through my minis I discovered I have quite a few men's colognes so thought I'd post in case we have any guys here interested in seeing these.
Or women. I have been known to love the odd cologne myself but personally I think the older ones were a lot stronger & male orientated than the unisex ones created lately imo
The little bottle of Faberge is interesting as every version I have seen of this it has Brut written on it & most have the silver disc, this one may have been pre-Brut days?
I love the wee bottle of Borsalino
Some old bits & pieces I came across today while tidying up.
I just love this box of Blue Grass goodies, no fragrance in it unfortunately but it still has a scent even through the packaging.
The lavender scent stick has well & truly dried up but still can't bring myself to throw it out.
The wee Tweed satin one is a favorite & still in pretty good condition.
Nothing spectacular but I love them all 💙
Just sharing my favorite collector cards from the Gaberdookie series
I moved house a couple of years back & have kept most of my minis stored since, I put off getting them out as I don't know how to display without them getting dusty & they are a pain to clean.
I'm taking the plunge, got them out today & will give them a clean up then try find suitable display cases I think.
I'll post pics in groups as I do them if anyone's interested, I'm ocd so like to keep in groups like all the Estee ones together.
Lots of them are empty but still hold a whiff, I just smelt the Private Collection ones & felt so much regret I didn't buy it in bulk & hoard!
Any ideas on how you all display yours appreciated.
I'm thinking the clear acrylic boxes with lids even though they don't go with my vintage style at least they are easy to dust.
Hi all I just started doing a tidy up & took pics of my Revlons so far.
Kicking myself as I gave a bunch away a year back & I think my Streetwear might have been in there so nothing really too old here, mostly early 2000s up.
Hi all I just recently found this sub & loving seeing everyone's beautiful fragrances.
Here are some pics of my most treasured bottle, a L.T. Piver bottle of Rosiris, still sealed amazingly as I am dying to know what the scent is like but have resisted so far.
I've done a little research as I'd love an idea of value but seems they are fairly rare in sealed condition.
Anyway here are the pics & I got all angles as even the bottle & stopper are exquisite.
