Latest finds..from ballarat to melbourne

I thought I would share with you some of my favourite second hand finds from the past month or so. I recently went to Ballarat and found some pretty great things there, and over the past few weeks, have gone to numerous school and church fairs, and opshops and found some pretty things too. Here are my favourites. Perhaps I can encourage you to hit a local fete or opshop and see what you might find!
