Friday Finds (on Saturday!)


It's Friday Finds. On Saturday. My internet was refusing to cooperate last night, so here we are.

So, without further ado, let me introduce you to Mella Fina and her amazing little Etsy store of delights!









Mella Fina offers an eclectic mix of vintage treasures and handmade and 'up-cycled' treats, with all sorts of one-off goodies for the home. I scoured her selection and came across these absolute beauts, which include a  stunning vintage pewter hand-held mirror, a modern sleather studded bracelet (had to slip that one in there!) and some more vintage goodies such as this gorgeous aftershave bottle which masquerades as a clock, and a pair of Italian leather shoes.
I just love sifting through random stores like these, and I love the fact that they make charity/thrift shopping that bit easier for you and group together all the best finds in one place! The great thing about vintage is that you can often guarantee that no one else is going to have the same thing as you have bought, and stocking up on such lovely little trinkets and other bits and bobs is a great way to add some character to your home or to add a personal touch to your outfit.

You may have noticed a little pattern here in that my Friday Finds posts are often linked to Etsy stores. Well, that's just because I have come across so many wonderful little stores, and I really want to share them with you!

Hope you have all had a wonderful start to the weekend! I will be posting my Weekend Wishlist later on today, so do look out for that, and do also click on the links above to visit Mella Fina's store and have a little browse, if not a sneaky purchase or two!

Have you ever bought anything from Etsy, and if so, do you have a favourite store?
If not, do you know of any other great little sites on which similar bits and bobs can be found?
