I have been snapping up a few unconsidered trifles as Angel Jem so correctly said a couple of posts ago! Some super bits of fabric and half a dozen lovely old embroidery hoops, the jar of buttons are just for starters - look at the main course....
A large box jammed full of goodies, many still on the cards. Underneath is a treasure trove of mother of pearl buttons too, all in a paper covered box so they must have been treasured over the years.
I'm going to use the hoops to try this out, I have so much gorgeous fabric that I rarely see so putting it on show makes perfect sense. I'm going to hang them on the wall in my newly tided craft room if the fairies ever come and sort it out for me.
