Charity Shopping in St Pauls Bay, Malta

I believe there are only two charity shops in Malta, but they are near to each other in St Paul’s Bay.

We go to Malta every couple of years as Hubby’s mum is Maltese and his parents have retired there.

They are not big into vintage in Malta, in fact they are not into it at all…

They were either curtains, unused dress fabric lengths, or remnants.DSC_0075DSC_0045 (2)

I was lucky in that the in-laws were coming for a visit a couple of weeks later so bought the bagful  of fabric back for me in their car with them. Otherwise I don’t know what the excess baggage cost would have been!

I thought these two remnants would make interesting cushions:

Who’da thunk I’d find all these in Malta?! Result!
