Happiness for 50 cents.........



Patchy Daisy pincushions have made an appearance.... 
After finishing off my latest tea cosy I was still enjoying playing with a mix of bright fabrics, so whipped up a couple of these to get it out of my system.

Polka dots have also been making an appearance this week......







This morning I headed off bright and early with a couple of friends to go on an op shop adventure.
Three towns, six op shops.....treasures to be discovered!!
I found this little beauty and couldn't resist its charm.

Happiness for 50 cents.......





I might fill it with doilies......or





some of my wool stash......

I did tell hubby I bought it for him to take his lunch to work in, but I don't think he believed me!!










At Red Ramia in Myrtleford I spied these wonderful cotton reels,
the perfect thing for storing some of my trims on.






 Might need a few more  as I have quite a stash of ribbons and trims.....








and there's plenty of room on the shelf for more ...




 Well I finally finished the tea cosy and I'm pleased with how it turned out.

It reminds me of Spring and all the new growth in the garden.
It's for sale on my Face book site, if you wold like to head over there and have a look....






Another bout of hot weather has arrived and it's a big job keeping the garden going......
The birdbaths are topped up every morning and sticks placed in them for the smaller birds and any bees that might need a drink.....

So girls, have you been on any adventures this week, or found something special to make you smile?.....I hope so...


Thanks for visiting and take care,
