A Sailor went to Sea Sea Sea



Cheeky chap found at my local tip shop for only a few pence. He will be joining his friends soon. I hope there isn't a mutiny!

Happy Friday :)

Hi Tam, your little sailor is gorgeous and an absolute steal. Your matchbox shelving is ingenious, and l love your attention to detail, decorating each box in different ways. Enjoy your Mothers Day lunch. Bron.

Can't believe he ended up at the tip, amazing what people will just dump. Good that he has been rescued to join your fab collection.
