magpie monday :: BIRDS SINGING

Over the last month, whenever Teri would ask me what I was up to my reply was very often 'looking for salt and pepper pots on eBay' ... I know, its a strange obsession to have, but I was on the look out for something different ... something sweet and something definitely vintage ... and then a couple of weeks ago I found them ... and they arrived last week ...

They were pretty grimy when they arrived ... and the cork stoppers were so hard and brittle, they broke when I tried to get them out ... took me ages to get all the bits out that had gone up inside the body ... so I need to buy new stoppers ... but they are now all washed and clean ....... and oh so sweet :)


They were only 99p so I am very happy!
