After a few days I actually have some time to post again. Well, I have to write about the parcel I received in the destash swap.
It is very cute! All the browns and greens are exactly my taste and I would gladly marry the corduroy! :D And cute ribbons... I don't even want to use them! :) I've never had a pair of handbag handles before, but they have definitely given me a few ideas now. Thanks, DinkyDaisy! :)
We went to Bookbarn on Monday and got loads and loads of books! We spent there 5 hours, I think! Emily had fun as well, crawling around between the shelves like in a big maze! Oh how many exclamation marks there are now! :O Here are all the books we found and took with us to give them a new home:
And as you can see from this picture, the pile is almost as tall as Emily is! :P
Yes, you can tell we love science fiction. All the Clifford D. Simak books were picked by me, but I quite like Poul Anderson, so I'll be nicking them off hubby! ;) I recommend Far Side to everyone, and the book about boxes is just too cute.
And now to the giveaway: Guess how much the pile of books cost, comment and you can win these three beauties:
I will soon have them in my shop too, or at least some that are very similar, since they are handdrawn.
You have time until 19.07 23.59. :)
Kerli,
sincerely
2025 CALENDARS - good tuesday

We've got something super lovely and colourful for this weeks Friday eye
candy. Today you'll find a stunning collection of calendars from UK female
led bus...
£54.85?? No idea really but that is a lot of books. I love looking at books. You must have had a lovely day. I REALLY want to win those cards. They are gorgeous. x
ReplyDeleteBlimey - that's a whole heap of books you have there. Well it is raining so you can snuggle up on the sofa with them. No idea how much you've spent - probably about £70 at the least.
ReplyDeleteOhh and I've blogged about the de-stash swap you kindly organised on http://niftythriftyloveliness.blogspot.com
I bet they were a real bargain! I'm going for £30!
ReplyDeleteI think they were £100....there's an awful lot there! Nice though. I love books! x
ReplyDeleteIf its anything like my local bookshop you were given most of the paperbacks for free. I'm going to guess something absolutely ridiculous and say £4.00
ReplyDeleteThere are alot there, and it looks like a right mix of some 20p's to over £10 so I reckon it'll just be over £100, I'll say £109. lol.
ReplyDeleteLooks like a great mix of stuff. I reckon there's about 40 books there so I'll go for a bargain average of 50p each - so £20?
ReplyDeleteZoomed in on your cards - I want them!
Oh, bookbarn sounds like heaven on earth! I'd not heard of it before - now I want to move in!
ReplyDeleteNothing as wonderful as a massive pile of new second-hand books . . . *sigh*
I reckon you paid £50 and it was a real bargain!
And I love the look of those cards too . . .
