Button for your thoughts.


These are the last of my bulbs i planted, got a sun flower to plant tomo, wish to have a rose garden when i older with a little veg patch.
My hand bag i never leave without it. i had a stage of only owning over sized bags but i love this one, which i got for my bday and worn it every day since. i had so repairs to do on it. looks better now.
Do you stick to the same bag day in day out?

Being Creative

Just want to say Thank you for all of you following me, really appreciated it. hope you enjoy my post in the future.
Waiting for my new job to start on Thursday I've been pottering around the house doing little creative things.These glass jars, jugs i brought at a brickerbrak for 50p each at a village fete.

I filled the short fat one with a section of my small old buttons, to the brim, most of them i found.

The tall thin one, i filled with small glass beads and emptied on these little jars, might fill them with sequins.Also this is my new mini project. a photo i took from Grandad garden which i am tonal sequins to fill the picture.
Little secret if you glue a thin piece of fabric on card and print an picture on it, through your computer picture it transfers your photo onto fabric.

Get your 3D glasses out!

Went to watch Coraline today in 3D it was so good the animation was amazing, storyline was good too. It was a bit scary for a 8 year old though. i defo see it again. maybe not in 3D i had a head ache at the end.I got tagged by inside the cabinet of wonder to write about my 5 obsessions at the moment. so hear they are.
1. Buttons i found two yesterday on the floor near university i find roughly 5 per month i stick them to the edge of my computer screen. they are mostly black and dull colours but sometimes i find really pretty ones.

2. Kelly Clarkson: Love her new album and got all of the others. i love to sing really loud in the shower to her songs, i don't care if any one hears me or if i forget the lyrics and make them up.3. Wedding Belles: Channel 4 drama really good story line and its funny but lots of swearing in it but i recommend watching it.4. Oliver: Bought it on DVD the other day need to add it to my musical list.i wish i could sing like Nancy but less of a Londoner!

My favorite scene ever!! (above)


5. Adolf Loos essay Ornamental and Crime, really good read very interesting. read it about 5 times research it!So i tag accidentalheartbreak, lulustaaar , primthings. to write about 5 obsessions.

Buttons

Resently i keep on finding buttons and i not looking they care just in my eye view when i look down, and there one is. honestly i not looking.
I found this on in the mud on edge of the curb, the crip i was walking up to.

This i found on my flat main entrance on the way to work in the bag.

These i found in Nottingham cattle market on saturday when i got a massive mirror with gold trim for a bargin of £5

This i found when i was sitting outside a club, drunk waiting for everyone to get fish and chips it was next to a bus stop post.

All this has happened ever since my Nan gave me her old button tin. filled to the brim with old button. the tin was made by edward sharp & sons LTD of Maidstone, kent. i have found two more buttns a tiny pink one and a shiny white button but i cant seem to find them, they are somewhere safe. i no its freaky but i feel someone is placing these for me to find and wishing me goodluck and to be happy for the rest of the day.
