Mystery Etnic Craft Or How I Came Back To My Blog
Having an evening jobs means mornings free, but not blogging anymore killed my enthusiasm for taking pictures. And of course I didn't have time to curb shopping any more so not much new stuff coming in.
But so much past finds to still get rid of. And I still find cool stuff in front of the door. Currently I can't take in big stuff because I have no space to store it. Time to do something about it to make space! Back into blogging I managed to push myself to go for it. So I reopened my shop, well that is my Dutch Ebay account:

The photo on top is a recent find that I donated to thrift shop. Ethnic decorative wooden item. I have no idea fom where of what possible meaning it may have.

IKEA CD Racks
In 2013 I found these two, finally in my blog 2015, see bottom of post. Already out of production but still sought after. Sold then as I remember €4 each, but I have no computer admin from that long ago.

Dog Beds
I was getting a bit confused over all the wicker dog beds that I found and sold, as two of them looked so much alike. But I figured it out. First there was this one that I sold at a very handsome €25. But there was a special story.

Then this one sold €5 September 2016.
