A week before we moved into our house we drove past and out the front was a skip full of the "houses" unwanted goods. The house is one of our landlords holiday houses that they no longer use and now rent out to us but it's obviously had so many memories and years of happiness as we could see by what was in the skip. Needless to say we pulled out 5 bikes that were stacked on top and left a wee note asking if we could leave them in the backyard until we moved in. Our landlord who is so very lovely said she was "delighted" that our kids wanted the bikes and told us a story about each of them and who they belonged to. This one is our favourite! It has a gawgaus leather tooled seat on it and takes pride of place on our front decking.
This one our landlord got for her 12th birthday and Avalon loves it. It needs a lot of TLC as they all do but the features on it are so cool.
I even have a pear tree, an apple tree and a nectarine tree which will need nets put over them this week as the parrots are getting to them....
And our galvanised garden shed with my favourite windows, louvered ones.
What an incredible find. How awesome for you. Isaac Lord is the king of bike fixers by the way. Am pinning your drum coffee table onto my pinterest board. Bet it gets lots of repins. Cherrie
