On Friday youngest son was home for a few days and wanted some things he had stored in the attic to take to his new home in Wimbledon. I suddenly remembered that when we moved in to our present house six years ago I stored some items there myself.
After much rummaging around I discovered what I was looking for in an old suitcase including this Autumn decoration that was given to me by a family friend from France who stayed with us the Summer we moved.
So this Autumn it will be on display and the candles lit.
A few more things included a 1911 Coronation mug, a Wilfred Toadflax (Brambly Hedge) figure, a 70's Habitat candlestick (should be another one somewhere but not found it as yet), a brass elephant that my mum bought at a Boot Fair in 1975, some glass ornaments from the 70's and also an ugly cat ornament that I can;t remember where I got it from. There was also 70's Laura Ashley tablecloth that I had wondered where it had gone and much much more.
Trouble is as my house is for sale ( and I am desperate to sell it) is there any place for all my knick-knack out on show or should I put them away again?
