Yesterdays loot =)

An unplanned trip to town, and some most likely over the top shopping...
But I saw this project on someone blog the other day ... and I SO wanted to do it myself ... Most likely mine wont be as pretty as hers. She had a much easier letter to make look pretty. But more about that later ...

I got the buttons I needed for my project, $55 worth of buttons. Its fun not having a stash to use from and no thrift or second hand stores that sell anything useful...
But hopefully it will be a pretty project when its done =)
Here are the buttons:


I also got some tools for my sewing ... 2 sewing machine bobbins and ... something I don't know what you call in English - I usually just call it murderer, cause it kills tread when you need to undo things ... Yeah I know I'm morbid or weird ...  If someone know what the thing is called, please leave a comment and let me know.









And I got told that it was Sinterklaas (a Dutch December tradition - is all I know since I myself is not Dutch) yesterday, and feeling emo and having a bad day ... I figured out any reason for buying myself a present ... This is my new ruler:












I kinda needed the new ruler - I only had a "6in x 24in" and a "2,5in square"
My new one is a "6,5 in square" - damn thing costed me $30 but I guess its will be worth it =)

My Shop has Closed - for good.

Due to ArtFire's new rules, I can't afford a shop there anymore to try sell my stuff. I don't make or sell enough for it to make me any profit if I have to pay a monthly fee for the store. This has been and is a hobby for me.

If anyone out there hit their heads and want to buy something from me that is still possible, just contact me and we make a deal, and PayPal works for payments.

Thank you to all my customers and all those that are wearing my creations =)

I am JINXED!!!

I don't know whats wrong with me ...
I went to town today ... with a few reasons for doing so ...
I got my strawberries, tho by the time I gotten then home they where have way mushed into jam.

and I walked to the sewing store, and no open door ...
All I see is a dark store - and a note on the door.
"STORE CLOSED - ENDING"
So ... I change to a hobby that I at least can have a CHANCE to get some stuff and mats for in my town ... even gotten a sewing machine from there ...
And less than 2 months later ... the store is closing ...
Which I find ridiculous - this store has fair enough moved a few times ... but its been in town since before I was born ...

So I must be either jinxed or cursed or something ... everything I do seem to get messed up or broken ...

-
One good news tho ... I GOT CINEMA TICKETS .... HARRY POTTER 7:2.
Not the best seats - cause I forgot what date it was and left it to long to buy one ... but I did get a ticket ... so I am ready to go on Wednesday the 13th. Can't wait to see the ending.
