what do you really like? i don't mean perhaps collections but something that is really you. perhaps Pinterest boards or things you just look at online or in books for hours dreaming!
I will go first so my five items i choose are;
Beach huts
Flamingos
Caravans older the better
Cath Kidston especially bags
1960s glass vases bubble ones with a coloured base
so what five would you choose?
