In addition to buying things for resale, I also bought some supplies for MAKING things to sell. I have a project in mind using these inexpensive vintage postcards.
And this stash of vintage bling for some jewelry projects.
And I couldn't do any junking without finding some nice plates for my party trays.
Isn't this a pretty dish?
Not any more!
Casualties! I'm not gonna tell you how it happened. Let's just say somebody else made dinner last week.
You can take those chards and put them to good use, as I did once, when I had a wooden frame and glued them around and added moss, and stringy moss. It was darling.

Oh no! But we're not in too much trouble as long as the mosaic pile isn't bigger than our good pile!
I'm also finally home form a long trip that included some treasure hunting but haven't unpacked much besides the dirty laundry yet. Wasn't able to check blogland much while away so just doing a little catch up while I gather some energy.

love the oval plate, looks very Limoges. My creativity these days is confined to knitting and mending quilts.
