oooo...look what i found!!

After spending yesterday morning in the recording session working on a special Christmas music project (stay tuned), I had intended to spend the arvo with the wonderful Taz proof reading our first ever issue of Hundreds and Thousands Mag. But, her little one got sick and so I suddenly had a free arvo. Hmmm...perfect opportunity for some op shopping! So, since I was in a  different part of Melbourne to where I usually live, breathe and op shop, I thought I better hit their shops, and hit them hard I did! I found lots of wonderful little treasures. Here are just a few....

I paid $3 for this beauty, a retro kids sewing machine, and it seems to work!! I'm totally in love.
 
brand new leopard print boots, pink floral tights and a new skirt for me!
 
some craft supplies...floral contact, a craft book, some crocheted lovelies and velvet ribbon
 
Oh! and already cut, ready to sew together bunting flags! lucky me, someone did the annoying part already!
 
sweet floral tea towels
 
 a nice big heavy orange frying pan (please excuse my dirty stove!)
 
and last but not least, some cute vintage bathers. I really should stop buying vintage bathers. It's hard to resist though, when they are so rare and then so damn cheap when I actually find them!!
 
Joining in again with the Op Shop Show Off.
 
I really do love op shopping!!

PS- two nights ago, I did this as well......it's supposed to be a bit of a gospel song, without being particularly religious..have a listen, you'll know what I mean!!

    That kids sewing machine is adorable! I have a blue one which doesn't even work which cost me $20 so total bargain there. And the swimmers are ace, rarely see them here but live 'em x

    Great finds Mez, so loving that little sewing machine, it's just tooo cute....so many wonderful finds.
    I stopped in at some oppies today and came away with some fabric, nothing startling but time was limited so it was nice to find something useful.

    The tiredness of the brand and the mixed feelings about adidas originals online the brand, to put it no more strongly, might be why other Republican hopefuls do not look like they're being scared adidas store off by the early emergence of front-running Romney and Bush. “Jeb's a problem for everyone when it comes to fundraising,” adidas factory outlet said one Republican operative with ties to him.
