i did need more tracing paper, and i am a total sucker for packaging...

a button spacer (awesome!) and button holder
seriously- its like they invented this for carpal tunnel. if you have it, you need this tool!
and the best. apron. ever.
tons of new brooches and pins and sweater clips... even though it is currently 100 degrees outside with a heat index of 4,000, they were all maybe $15 total!

$10 for all these hats! tons of new brooches and pins and sweater clips... even though it is currently 100 degrees outside with a heat index of 4,000, they were all maybe $15 total!

ReplyDeleteyou got an overlocker as a freebie??? All that cool old stuff aside, if you knew what I had to go through to get an overlocker when I needed one...!
ReplyDeletei was soooo shocked when she gave it to me! i was gonna offer to buy it, but if you saw all the crap in that house i am sorting out, i guess it makes sense!
ReplyDeleteif it's a house full of stuff, you're doing her a favour! it has to find it's way back into the world somehow. but that machine looks like it's never been used!
ReplyDeletei dont think it was used too much! i just need the manual :(
