Jollyjillys -Genie in a bottle!

Today I thought I would link up to Magpie Monday for the first time. So fingers crossed I do it right !
On Sunday we walked around a sort of bootsale! It was at an antique place but we could not afford to even look at the expensive stuff! Just outside was people selling lower priced items and also a man with a large box. It had a sign say free help yourself, so I made a rush for it.
In side was mostly junk but then I found this little bottle. It seems fairly old and I have no idea what it once contained but it was so sweet. It needs some cleaning but it will sit on my dresser with pride.

  7. Ahh welcome welcome *opens arms wide*.

    Free stuff! Wow. Such a pretty little bottle. Bet it would make a good room freshner of some sort if it has holes in the lid - maybe with some pot pourri in or fragrange oil?

    Think I'd display hat pins in it. If I had any, which I don't. Be a good excuse to go find some though LOL

    Thanks for joining in, hope to see you back xx

  10. Great freebie find! I was thinking along the same lines of Mums arcade comment, perhaps its an incense jar? Either way its looks great.
