Holiday Treasures from Brittany
Hello everyone, I hope you're doing well ! Like last summer, I want to share with you my little findings from this corner of Brittany. I'm always trying to strike a balance between materialism and spirituality, and for me these objects almost speak for themselves. It also brings back some good memories, as I used to share more articles in the OCD community.
I always like to find special objects that have a soul of their own. But let's start with this presentation of the different items I've unearthed at the beginning of the month !
One of the things that makes me appreciate these moments is taking these presentation images, as well as those of the individual objects.
Here's a rosemary cutting that I collected last time on a walk and which I hope to be able to put back in our countryside garden.
I was given an insect swatter. What's special about this one is that it's made of metal wire and it's not supposed to kill insects, but rather stun them. I haven't tested it yet, but I think it works quite well.
A small thimble found at a flea market. I've checked that it's not silver, but classic metal.
Here, one of my favorite items ! A large stoneware mug glazed with traditional Breton motifs. I found it in a little flea market where we went completely in the rain.
I like to drink a lot of tea and this is just the thing !
A good bottle of old rum for the campaign. So far I've managed to resist opening it, but who knows what will happen in the next few days ^^ !
Of course, I also had to find some vegetable seeds and other plants to sow in our garden in the future. Tomatoes, rhubarb, poppies, parsnips and turnips.
I've also found this old brass bell, with a lovely patina, which I'm thinking of installing at the entrance to our gate. I don't know if anyone here remembers, but I'm a bell collector, so if you have any from your country, don't hesitate to show them to me in exchange for HIVE ;)
The last item I didn't include in the first image is this beautiful, large push-button coffee maker that I gave to my father-in-law, and I think he's a coffee lover, so he's particularly pleased !
That's about it for this summer's selection. I hope you enjoyed this article and a few other items, and thank you for visiting.
Have a great day and see you soon,
<3

Bonjour à tous, j'espère que vous allez bien ! Comme l'été précédent, je partage avec vous mes petites trouvailles de ce coin de Bretagne. J'essaye toujours de trouver un équilibre entre matérialisme et spiritualité et pour moi, ces objets parlent presque d'eaux-mêmes. Cela me rappelle aussi de bons souvenirs comme j'avais coutume de partager plus d'articles dans la communauté OCD.
J'aime toujours trouver des objets particuliers et qui en soi, on une âme à part entière. Mais commençons cette présentation des différents éléments dénichés en ce début de mois !
Une des raisons qui me fait apprécier ces moments, c'est aussi beaucoup de prendre ces images de présentation, ainsi que celles des objets individuels.
Voilà ici une bouture de romarin que j'ai récoltée la dernière fois sur une balade et que j'espère pouvoir faire repartir dans notre jardin à la campagne.
Là c'est une tapette à insectes que l'on m'a offerte. La particularité de celle-ci, c'est qu'elle composée de fils de métal et qu'elle n'est pas sensée tuer les insectes, mais plutôt les assommer. Je ne l'ai pas encore testée, mais je pense que cela fonctionne assez bien.
Un petit dé à coudre trouvé en brocante. J'ai vérifié celui n'est pas en argent, mais bien métal classique.
Ici, un de mes objets préféré ! Un grand mug en grès émaillé avec des motifs bretons traditionnels. J'ai trouvé ce dernier dans une petite brocante où nous sommes allés complètement sous la pluie.
J'aime boire beaucoup de thé et c'est un peu le récipient idéal !
Une bonne bouteille de vieux rhum pour la campagne. J'ai jusqu'ici réussi à résister à l'ouvrir, mais qui sait ce qui se passera dans les prochains jours ^^ !
Évidemment, il aura aussi fallu que je trouve quelques graines de légumes et autres plantes à semer dans le futur dans notre jardin. Des tomates, de la rhubarbe, des pavots, du panais et du navet.
J'ai aussi trouvé cette vieille cloche en laiton toute patinée et que je pense à installer à l'entrée de notre portail. Je ne sais pas si certains ici s'en rappellent, mais je suis collectionneur de cloches et de grelots, aussi n'hésitez pas si vous en avait de votre pays à me proposer contre des HIVE ;)
Le dernier élément que je n'ai pas intégré à la première image, c'est cette très belle et grande cafetière à poussoir que j'ai offerte à mon beau-père et je crois que comme c'est un amateur de café, il est particulièrement content !
Voilà, c'est à peu près tout pour cette sélection estivale, j'espère que cet article vous aura plût, ainsi que quelques objets et je vous remercie pour votre visite.
Très bonne journée à tous et à bientôt,
<3

You and I are similar in the treasure hunting department when it comes to flea markets. It's such an amazing feeling when you find things like this, I really like that mug, they are hand painted aren't they?
I didn't know that was a bug swatter at first, it looked like a little broom. I could use one of those in summer when the mosquitoes become a nuisance. Great finds and I like the way you laid them out in the pics. I can't wait to see what I find at the next market hunt, it's always something I look forward to immensely.
Flea markets are a paradise for us ! To be honest, at some point years ago, it was almost like an addiction and now, I'm super happy and proud if I don't buy anything... because at that time, it was needed that I choose something. Now, only crack fo some particular things I know I need and won't be disappointed afterwards :)
Yeah, this pattern seems completely hand-painted, I so happy with that one, it can almost contains 0,5 liter haha ^^
Thank you @emma-h2, I hope to see when you'll share your future findings !
Have a good weekend 😘
A half liter cup? Yes please! That's freaking awesome.
I totally know what you mean, I have to limit myself to a certain amount of cash and absolutely nothing past that or I end up going home with the freaking kitchen sink 🤣
The weekend has been fantastic so far, I hope yours has too. For sure I will definitely share my treasures and I might even be hunting this week so I have my fingers crossed that I'll find something awesome.
😁
Yeah, full green sencha tee !
The good thing with second hand shop and antiques is that they are mainly taking cash, so I just have the sum I allow me to spend in my wallet ^^
Ahaa, I hope you have find some good ones, don't hesitate to mention me if you decide to share something about 😉
Take good care @emma-h2
Thanks @anttn I will do.
That's a really good way to make sure you don't end up forking out wads of cash that you didn't really intend to originally. Market larking for the win 😁

That's some nice stuff, man. I know you can't stand to open the rum any longer. I hope it tastes good, enjoy!
Hahaha ! In fact I'm trying my will and I will stand until being back home hehe 😂
lovely little collection, sure beats my fridge magnets!
Thank you @grindle... Haha ! It depend of the magnets ^^ ... and of the fridge 😂
Have a nice weekend ahead :)
I have the full range from tacky to tasty!!
you too 😀
Haha, you've seen right through me 😅
😂😂😂
These are really pretty treasures. I'm trying to decide if I like the mug more or the bell. And I understand that little balance between materialism and spirituality. Happy Friday to you @anttn🌺
Indeed ! I'm so glad about those :)
For me it's the mug without hesitation haha !
Thank you @jhymi, yeah, spirituality always something to care about for me !
Have a good weekend 😘
Have a good weekend yourself dearest @anttn🤗
Thank you 😊
All the pictures are so lovely especially the last one that you gave to your father in law
He'd so pleased.
Please you downvote my post some days ago. I want to know why so that I can correct. Thank you
Hey @mfontom, in fact it was because I followed a downvote trail... Nothing personal, but I recently left it after seeing that my downvote "power" was used.
It's okay.
great view. I like this. how are you friend
Thank you @mnurhiver, I'm fine and you ?
Glad to hear your friends are doing well.Greetings to you and also the family there
Many thanks dear @mnurhiver 😇
Greetings to the family a well !
Have a good day ahead ✌️
Good friend. When friends want to go to our place. If one day friends go here, don't forget to let us know and we will make friends special guests.🙂
Thant's super kind of you @mnurhiver, I will not forget to tell you if I come, and tell me too if coming in Europe 😉 !
Yes, friend. Thanks @anttn . It would be easier for Europeans to go to Indonesia than for Indonesians to go to Europe. If Indonesians go to Europe they have to prepare a lot of money because the currency is low. It's easy for Europeans to go to Indonesia because they have a large currency and they can buy everything in Indonesia. 😁😁
Mmh, that's for sure, but who knows what the future will plan for us ?
Sorry for answering lately @mnurhiver ✌️
Yes, friend. 😁.. If there are job vacancies there, please let me know, maybe I can go there later to work and be able to meet my friends and family there.🙂👍
