Playing along this week with Sophie and Apron Thrift Girl with my op shop finds for this week. I have been scouring the shops hoping to find some more vintage sheeting, I am taking part in the vintage quilt square swap, its my first ever 'sewing' orientated swap and I am relying on help big time (Mardi has arranged for a tutorial from the wonderful Janelle and I can't wait to get involved).....anyway sadly I only found one to add to me very tiny collection, ahh a girl has gotta start somewhere right!
Also happy to pick up some more vintage sheet music (have lots of ideas swimming around to use that) and a beautiful cup and saucer to add to my collection of china that I make into candles.
On another visit I managed to grab these bargains for $1 each....
The decorations quickly made it on to a 'starry friends' Christmas present and the wire tree has been transformed (inspired by Kim Archer's latest edition of Etzcetera) into this...
And the present....
ohhhh sheet music. I have cut into the lovely sheet music you sent me Lee and will blog about it soonish. I'm participating in the sheet swap too. It will be great!
