*cleanup*- ladies it's so worth talking about- an Australian tradition...
a provider of many an up-cycled/re-cycled piece in our house...
so...the way it works, if you are not from our shores, is that local councils determine a day for the houses in their *area* to put their *rubbish* curb side, to be collected by them on a set morning...
but...before that *pick-up*... other locals can
it may sound foreign to some of you- but it's been a tradition all through my life time...& one happily adopted by all- to the point that i divide my *clean up* into two piles...
one that's worth looking through & one that really is just rubbish...
this is my *find* from yesterday...
it's a time when those that can see past the old...to the chippy & lovely, really come into their own...
& it's so so great for the environment...
for me, a road side cleanup find became my now very-loved-new-to-our-little-beach-house-mag-rack...
it just so happened to be the perfect width for our side table- a find from our English village...
this room is slowly coming together since our move home to the Coast of Oz, from the English countryside...
our country life is merging with our beach lifestyle...i'm feeling more & more settled the more i unpack & the more we merge the two...
if you're on the beaches...& needing a re-cycling fix...
i'll let you know where to loiter roadside next!
i may even share a chippy find or two...
it'd be fun to do it together...
happy wednesday gals
