Thrift Find: Treasure Chest

I found this cute little treasure chest (a.k.a. a tin box) at the flea market a couple months ago and am still infatuated with it. I love the colors. I think it's supposed to be a Christmas tin, but really I think I'll keep it out all year. Right now it's holding various ribbons and buttons.
I just thought of this as I was writing this post, but if any of you have a Flickr account, add me as a contact if you want and I'll add you! Check out my photostream: http://www.flickr.com/photos/oohvintage/ and add me!

Flea Market Finds

Since I haven't had much to say for the past few days, I thought I'd give you some eye candy and show you some of the crafty supplies I picked up at the flea market this past weekend. I'm loving all of the bright colors...

Thrift shopping today at the monthly flea market...

Oh flea market, how I love you... Stay tuned for shop updates...

Thrift Thursday & Work in the Studio

Thrift Thursday! Here's what I picked up at the flea market last weekend:

This amazing picnic basket for $1...it just needs a little sprucing up. I'll probably add some cushioned lining and then a new handle and it'll be ready for some lovely lunches at the park. (Isn't the clasp great?)

Some buttons-- a little on the expensive side: $1 per jar.

New items for the shop! Get excited!

I was also able to get a ton of work done in the studio yesterday. I had a photoshoot this morning and was sprucing up the pictures earlier today. Hopefully I'll begin to list these in the shop either later today or tomorrow.

Look who popped in to take a little nap while I was hard at work. She was so lazy, she couldn't even lift her head to pose for the picture.
