I went home home to visit my folks this weekend and, if there's one on, there's nothing that we like doing as a family more than sniffing around the local car boot sale. Unless you count Scrabble. I ended up with so much thrifty goodness that I couldn't carry it all home on the train and had to leave it behind. Trying to choose what to bring home and what my parents could bring when they visit in a few weeks was quite the Saturday morning chore.
Amongst my treasures were some photography books, lace, fabric and some photograph frames - including these dinky, little cute ones which had never left their box.

I also managed to score this embroidery thread case and over 100 extra bobbins, which I snapped up for £2.50. Oh my! I've been coveting one of these for quite a while - my embroidery threads currently resemble a plate of spaghetti. The majority of the threads are spare bits of yarn, but there are some cute, little embroidery flosses in the mix and sorting them will be half the fun of the haul.
Anyone else been up at the crack of dawn for a good rummage around the car boot?
