Some of the things I found on my latest trip there...
A desk full of old books and toys
Stupid mirror pose in a very 70s bedroom
Cute old paints
More desks of art equipment
Books
Toiletries
Boxes within boxes
Very old boxes of chocolates (empty luckily)
Then I found and tried on various afghan fur hippy coats round the gardens..
And did some photos based on my Graphics topic of "Society Today". In this photo I tried to show the changes in books and toys from then to now.
I really do love going to my Nans, and it's odd to think that my Mum grew up there..
My Mum in her teen bedroom, September 1982.
Then
Now
That coat is absolutely fab!
ReplyDeleteI'm really tempted to do a post with pictures of my mum back when she was a teen, the clothes were so wonderful back then! xo
