Tuesday's treasures - first edition!

I'm giving myself (and you if you want!) an excuse to take photos of all the wonderful things I love. Every Tuesday I will be hosting 'Tuesday's treasures', where I will post photos of my chosen object for the week. Many photos probably!
Do you want to join me?
Your treasure might be something you've just purchased or acquired, or something you've had a while. It might be brand spanking new, or second hand. Who cares? I want to see it!

Well here we are, as promised, our first Tuesday's treasures! Yay!

Today I am featuring Ryleah's marionette puppet which I bought her as part of her Christmas present. She had asked for some old things, like I collect. Now treasure hunting is all well and good when it is for yourself, but when it's for someone else it's kinda tricky. Especially when it's for a 9 year old girl, and must suit her room.

I hit the jackpot when this little guy was pointed out to me at our local Mill Markets. I had spent a good hour searching for something just like it but no luck. (But I did find an Alf doll for Ben! Hehe!)
He was hiding in a glass cabinet that I missed, and I'm so glad I asked this random stall holder if he'd seen one around.
He was even still in his original box! Score!

Without further ado, here he is!




So how about joining in? 

My apologies if this link thingy doesn't work - it's my first attempt!
