EyeSpy: A new Discovery

Discovered at a local 'trash and treasure' Saturday morning.
Under a box and in a plastic bag, this vintage British Childrens book
' Stories for Little People'
all mine for just 50cents!!
its in such great condition that I felt a little guilty handing over my coin - the illustrations are so delightful!

Hope you all had a wonderful weekend - i spent yesterday afternoon making some things
hope to show you soon
have a FAB Monday everyone!
