New things happening

This is the front door to Inn Country

and lilly cottage.

outside lilly cottage where you will find me.

inside the shop before I started puting stock in

here is a sneak peek at the shop I still have a lot to do.

This is my 200th post wow! that has gone quickly.

I am about to open a new little shop well really it is a room at old petrie town with the lovely linda at lilly cottage, I have my own room and it is so sweet and little and just perfect for me and my daughter as she is doing this with me. back in 2007 I opened my first Shop Inn Country. But sadly due to illness it closed in 2009, I am so pleased to have a shop again! I have wanted this for a long time. thanks to the lovely linda for letting me have the back room at lilly cottage because without her I would not have been able to do this.

 

So if you love my doll or bears or love anything french pop in to visit me, I will be at the shop on

 fridays for the twilight markets from 5.00pm to 9.00pm

and sundays from 8.00am till 2.00pm

this friday will be my first day.

 

I still have a lot of work to do, but I wanted to share the news with you all. I am going to have a giveaway for my 200th post I just have to work out what.

Busy Day

this bag I have made for me, I have a feeling a couple will go missing! As my daughter loved them so much she didn't think I had made them.

I still have to stitch the roses on.

the above tote is great for your magizines! I made it to fit



I have had a really busy day today, dying viscose and making a bag.  I was so inspired by miss rose sister violet when I went to the craft show. I have been busy making and sewing and dying fabric and viscose and making a couple of cushions.

Miss Rose Sister Violet - I'm Inspired

thank you Miss Rose Sister Violet!

Well today I went to the craft show here in brisbane.  the same time last year you would have found me there selling. but this year I just over committed myself to to many shows and something had to give. It's a lot of hard work.

  So when I went today I headed straight for Miss rose sister violet, they have the most beautiful laces and flowers.  Last year I stocked up and was about to run out.  they hand dye all there laces and flowers and I got to sit in on a class today, I walked away so inspired to create and do beautiful things, So I hope it will come out in the next lot of bears I do for the last show this year!

Vintage finds

I bought this at an antique store! for a bargin price

it is in really good condition and really large

the inside looks like it has never been used.  I really love the colour of this hat box

this cute little bag which did have bowls in it but I only wanted the bag.
so I left them behind

Vintage sewing machine case

it is going to make a beautiful display! as you can see from this photo

this beautiful old book for a bargin price of $2.50 it is the home physician! I don't know how old it is but it looks old

side view of the book it has beautiful detail.

when I got home this was on the door step! Just gorgeous.

Well today I had a really bad morning, so i thought I would take myself shopping and I also went to visit a friend.  Here are my vintage finds I had such a better day than my morning. So even through my day started badly it has been a good one for bargins and vintage finds. Had a lovely day with a special friend!
