pretty finds...

 
this gorgeous tin I plan to use as a jewellery box could not be more perfect!
handy bits and pieces...
and these sweet old books were a gift from a lady who thought I could put them to good use, perhaps they'll just join my collection to be read & thoroughly enjoyed...
I found this fabulous yarn on a clear out table for 50 cents & immediately could see it was destined for beautiful things.  I love it's texture & I love what it's becoming... 

visit Sophie for more great finds...
