pimped or not...

The child in me
enjoyed
matching
sorting
pairing
the beauties
I found this morning


I think
it's time
for a little
customer survey...
These buttons are so irresistable
that I just have to make rings or earstuds with them!
but I was wondering:
what do you prefer? (for a ring or earstud)
just the plain buttons
or the pimped ones (picture above)

Thanks so much for your vote!

Be my Button - thrifted treasures

Look
what I found
this morning
on the flea market at Sint Jacobs
in Gent
a floral cookie box:
I fell in love right away
with the picture of
the daisy-rose bouquet in a clod of straw, with a skyblue clouded background lol;-),
so very very old fashioned, I love it!


But look
what was inside:

Vintage buttons!!
in beautiful designs and colors tones of blue, cobalt, moss, teal, olive, mustard...
me l!kes!

off to create with them!

Big in Japan

Op een rommelmarkt
een
Alain Grée
boekje gescoord,
voor maar
20 cent!!
ze zijn normaal een stukje duurder, zoals je hier ziet...
in Japan zouden ze grote ogen trekken!

meer moois van Alain Greé kun je hier kopen
maar wat ik me afvraag
hoe zijn toch al
die vintage boekjes
van Alain Grée
in Japan Geraakt?


I scored
this beautiful Alain Grée book
on a flea market
for only 20 eurocent ;)
not the normal price
as you see here.

Unbelievable how popular these books (wich I grew up with) are now in Japan !

Happy Stats

you must have seen them around
in blogland
the weekly
happy stats
I think
Mamutopia
was the first to start with them.

I decided to give it a try too,

it's always good
to reflect on the good things!


Little things that made me happy last week:

- a very happy Mies at her new (special) school
- Mr Janssens bringing me a pack of Shortbread (Walkers) from London (which I emptied right away)
- starting my second year of goldsmithclasses
- my new red shoes (I already danced with them!)
- enjoying a beautiful concert of Wim Mertens (lots of sweet memories popped up)
- having 267 Fans on my Facebook page! (you can be a fan too!)
