Vintage Finds - Travel

 Just about everything you see I found at a trash and treasure market yesterday, while on our way to the seaside for a day of frolicking in the waves.

I was a bit dubious that I would find anything as it was 10am and you know that you should be up with the birds to get the good stuff.

So you can imagine my delight when I was able to unearth these goodies. The funny thing is I didn't even realise at the time that they all tend toward the theme of travelling.

I just love vintage quilts and this one was coming home with me, I seem to have a thing at the moment for red white and blue.

 

The granny rug I found a while ago but I'm showing you today as it blends well with the quilt. 

Both these items are perfect to snuggle into on trips.

Get a load of these super comfy socks hand made in Slovenia, I love them, just great to rest tired feet after walking around all day, even better at $1.00. Bargain!!

  

On those long trips a tin of yummy treats is just perfect with that cuppa when you need a break from the trip.

  

Not really sure how this goes with my traveling theme perhaps a candlelit dinner at the camp site.

 I couldn't resist it charm.

 A must have for would be travelers, pouring over the pages to exotic locations. 

I have several vintage atlases and still collecting, this one was 50 cents.

It even has wonderful photos.

 A travel journal is a must, I don't know about you but I LOVE journals, this one has made made paper with rose petals, never used and for $1.00 I couldn't resist.

 What's in the box? Well, I was delighted to find that the label was correct.

A 1960's kerosene burner used by the boy scouts and in working order. I can't wait to use it, no need to take a thermos, just fire this baby up. I haven't got around to cleaning it yet.

Happy trails.
