Oppie bargains...

Well hello and welcome to High Maintenance Hippy 2013!

 I'm hoping to get it together and post lots of fabulous things this year, regularly, but we'll see shall we?

I haven't really been op shopping much over the last few months. The Munchkin usually says no these days, and I haven't had many outings by myself other than the wild OMG-I-have-1-million-jobs-to-do-and-an-hour-to-do-them pay day "outings", not quite the same.

However, I did convince her that we could have just a quick little look on Wednesday (hehe) and scored big time! All these gorgeous cottons and stands and even a metal crochet hook for $10!! Oh yes! There was no way that was staying behind. There are vintage wooden reels and some colours I didn't have, and I have been putting off going to Spottie and buying the stands. Look how pretty they all are colour sorted! Sigh...

I also found a few other great things I had been after like some vintage small wooden bowls for Waldorf inspired wee person eating, a new dog basket, some books for The Munchkin, a game, a sweet crochet Toshi hat and a replacement vintage thermos for those tea emergencies while cooling in the park with friends... all for $30. Money well spent I say. 

At the moment I am saving the tastes of Summer with some bottling and preserving.... will be back to share soon. 

I hope you are all safe and sound with the awful bushfires and heat waves raging? 

Yours,
