So- today I found myself in the Scotland's fair city of Perth. I didn't have much time to myself but I did get a look in a few of the many charity shops in the centre. I resisted a lot- however did get a huge selection of embroidery threads which I'd been on the look out for this week after seeing this nostalgic tutorial for Freindship Bracelets via Fashimi's twitter. I also found little packets of vintage postage stamps from all over the world. I got about 40 for £1.00. The ones in the photo are from 1958 Hungary. I have no idea what I'm going to do with them- but the artwork on some of them is so beautiful I couldn't resist.
And then- I arrived home to find my hand-printed Crystal Forms tote bag by Cuppateaandcake - had arrived. It is really beautiful in "real life" and I absolutely can't wait to tote around my wares in it. I suggest you order one today!
As an unrelated treat- here's a photo of my mum's stripy cat, Alfie with his new Caramel wafer cushion. It's stripes-city!
