Weekend Opshopping and an exciting New Project!!!!!

On Saturday I went Opshopping with the fam. We all found a few treasures, thought I'd share what I found for yours truly.

 
And my best find for the day. Brand new Cath Kidston sandals. In my size. I paid $6, the price tag was still on, they cost someone 28 pounds. Anyone know the rough conversion??? I love Cath Kidston stuff, but never buy it new, so was pretty chuffed with this Op shop score!
 
Joining in again with Blackbird has Spoken's Op shop Show Off
 
In some very exciting news, my sister in law Taz and I have decided to venture into the world of independent magazine making!!! Inspired by many of our favourite UK crafty mags, and also the Melbourne independent zine scene, we are currently working on the starter issue of our brand new little mag, called "Hundreds and Thousands." Please head over to our blog and have a look. We are relying on word of mouth to get the word out, so feel free to share the news with your friends!! We hope that the magazine will be a great space for crafty and creative people to share, so in the future we will be hoping you may want to contribute an article or an idea!!!!! 
 
We are very excited, but also a little nervous as we haven't done anything like this before. I have put out CD's in the past, but never a magazine!! We invite you to hold our hands and be gentle with us on this new journey!!
