flea market finds!

The fam & I went up to Hervey Bay for the weekend. And so it seems Hervey Bay peeps donate amazing stuff & sell even more amazing things at garage sales. What a weekend of awesome, awesome treasure finding! Ive never found so many awesome goodies in one morning before..my inner treasure addict was going crazy-happy! Enough chatter...have a squiz at what i picked up!

 Our cat, Lilu, was obviously feeling a tad neglected :)

 Little owl & deer ornaments (50 cents each!). I especially love the judge owl. I already have a couple of this style of owl ornament which you can view by clicking here. If you look closely at the 3rd pic, they are sitting on my mini coloured set of drawers :)

 Unsure whether these little guys are ceramic or clay, either way they're cute :) Picked them up for $6 for all of them, including the shelf.

 Sweet little picture for my inspiration wall.

 Little donkey ornaments, aren't they the sweetest!

 I almost fell over when I saw this deer planter, then I almost fell over again when i saw the price - $1.00!!

 My partner, Shane, spotted this one for $5! I totally walked past it. I love Shane :)

 Weird but cute looking cat ornament, the eyes/whiskers etc of which washed off when I cleaned it after I took these pics :( Can you tell I love cute/kitsch ornaments? Also a vintage kiddies Fisher Price radio, working condition.

 Back of the radio.
Edited to add: Everything in total cost no more than $25 :)

And just for good measure, another pic of Miss Lilu napping whilst i was taking photos. She melts my heart with her cuteness.

Thanks for stopping by & viewing the treasures i found. Pop by Her Library Adventures & Apron Thrift Girl for more Flea Market Finds!

A peak at my oh so cluttered, yet organized, craft room :)


Some of my button, ribbon & fabric collection. My 'inspiration' wall in the corner, featuring random frames of cuteness ive spotted on my op shop journeys.


A close up of my inspiration wall. The deer embroidery down the bottom right says "Love smiles its own joy and gladness" ...it's one of my favourite 'deer' things i own :)

And here you can see my little workspace. It may look messy, but it isnt too bad. This was taken when i was preparing for a market stall, so its not as neat as usual. Everything has its place, and as long as i know where it is, that's all that matters hehe.

What does your workspace/office/studio/craft room look like? Are you a very organized person, or the total opposite? Id love to hear from you all! :)

op shop finds [28.07.10] pic heavy

Yesterday i went op shopping. T'was quite the successful day, found lots of goodies! Piccies below...

I love the covers of these books! I most likely wont read them, just take photos of them :p

This is basically brand new! I love the pastel pink colour.

Retro-looking coasters.

Some awesome buttons from Voodoo Rabbit, love them!

..and some more!

These buttons are very, very special. I discovered a new little store that has a WHOLE room dedicated to their vintage button collection. I almost passed out when i walked in. These are the small few i picked out of the thousands upon thousands they had there. So precious!!

"Umm this isn't cat food...." (this is our cat, Lilu...i haven't shown a pic of her on our blog before hehe)

Pretty little frame & cute fabric.

I'm not 100% sure, but i think this is called a 'train case.' I don't care what it's called to be honest, i loooove it. I can't wait to clean it up & use it for something special :)

Lilu checking it out...

Adorable deer cross stitch!!

One can never have enough cuteness in their kitchen!

Andddd...last but most definitely not least, my most favourite find of the day.....mother & daughter deer ornament....it melts my heart <333

Sitting next to our Felix & Lily Handmade Wearables 'mascot' deer....which is yet to be named. What do you think we should call her?

Thank you for looking!

I love....deers!

They have to be one of the most lovely, sweet animals ever. Having said that, i will say i love ALL animals (apart from spiders).
