Are you like me and think that the 1980’s sweaters and cardigans were more comfortable to wear? Of course if you are of a certain age the answer will almost certainly be yes.
Here are a few from the Marshall Cavendish range which you can purchase from Henrietta’s at

All my auctions at ebid are buy-it-now or snap-it-up so there is no need to worry about losing that item to the highest bidder.
At the end of April Royal Mail bring into effect new postal prices for example small packets from 0g – 750g will be £2.70 first class and £2.20 second class (UK). This is bad news for small packet sellers!
So i have decided to allow all my buyers to accumulate items up to 2 months which can then be paid for in one transaction. Saving You the buyer postage & packing costs and me paypal fees and packaging costs.
I sell vintage buttons, buckles, knitting patterns, sewing patterns and other related items. I also sell inherited items from various family members. So please bear in my that most of my items are vintage or second-hand.
