Big one...

The weekend is almost over... several things to share:

I've decided to start doing 'this is'... as started by Three Buttons this week is best op shop/garage sale finds:
I got this at a garage sale for $5. I love it! My mum saw it when I brought it home and offered to buy it from me. Hah! Fat chance! This baby's mine! I don't have a picture of it but on both sides it has a pic of a large shell burned into it, with a name. So I think someone pulled apart some sort of produce box to make it. It looks pretty old though.



I also have another small find that I just think is really cute: I don't know why but I love this when I saw it. It's a tiny tree with a little Japanese table set under. It has a small bowl of fruit and a little pillow on top, with some cool shoes below. I just think it's divine.

Also: I finished one of the toys I am making to send to Bulgaria, to an orphanage

This is pretty much my first stuffed toy, but I'll get better. Promise. Yes that material does have little blue and purple boats all over it! So gorgeous.

I made something else, yet again for my sister. She was going to a masquerade ball and needed a mask. So I hastily knocked this up. Black velvet, mmmm.... She was going to curl the ribbons when she got home.


Yesterday we went outside, even though it was horribly cold and played around for a bit, I took some good shots as it was starting to get dark:J shows us all how dog training is done.

And some lovely photos of the winter sun set and my boys. The bottom right photo is possibly the best I've seen of Aussie Bob. Click to see a bigger pic.

Ok... I'm exhausted! Oh and a *Big* thank you to greenolive who gave me my first comment. Very exciting! Ta!
