Manicure Anyone.

Wasn't quite sure what to capture today as I haven't been out and about. Well yesterday I spent a while watching live auction on the internet, knowing that some in my area were having sales..

I know I shouldn't but I can't resist a good bargain and put a bid on a couple of items, I've never tried bidding on the internet before and found it quite addictive. You know my love for old spoons, well I did find a nice couple but also acquired this lovely little Dressing Table Manicure Stand with all the necessary equipment. I then nipped out and fetched my rewards,

This set was made in Birmingham in 1923 by Silversmith W.J.Myatt & Co, not that old but a nice item. Now how do you use these implements so that I can have the nicest hands in the village.

They don't need to be used, just to be admired! What a great buy! And great image too!

Now when I watch these shows and hear of Internet bids coming in I will think of the lady with the most beautiful hands in the village and smile to myself. Beautiful purchase and photograph.
