bargain

June 23rd, 2010

So i haven’t been to the Oriental plaza in a long long time. It’s like they have done a bit of a clean up or something but i found so much stuff there this weekend, or it was just my lucky day. The purchase i am most excited about are these badly printed shanks, as you already know my favourite type of button. I thought i had exhausted all the shops of these at the plaza. Apparently not since i found these…. gasp….. and then i found these fabrics, vintage, some are 100%cotton and really good prices ….. i am almost as obsessed with rose patterned fabric as i am with buttons so it must have been my lucky day.

My long time friend Wick gave me this mending kit/book by Cath Kidston she has an amazing book collection that i would love to get my paws on. This book is so prettily done and the illustrations are really well done too. Love all the extras that come with it, its a great gift to give someone starting out. Thank you Warwick for knowing that i would love it. You are okay.
