New things...


I feel like I've been neglecting my littleteawagon shops lately, but its all been about searching,sourcing,washing,folding,ironing,measuring....more searching, taking pics,more searching..... I am getting worried that the fabric I search in vain for will eventually run out, but then I tell myself maybe I'll just have to start printing my own if that happens :)
Its great finding a new design that makes your heart go skippy, like this one..a fluffy kind of brushed cotton (I'm loving brushed cotton!!).....I have many plans for this but I did put a bit aside for the shop .

So if the shelves were looking a bit bare, I'm hoping to get them filled with some new fabrics and garlands by the weekend :)

Pics..pics..and more pics Yay



Not being very good at making new years resolutions and even worse at keeping them I decided to just make up some goals for 2011.....then I saw Dottie Angels 'shiny new year diorama' and Julie Arkels 'boxes' so I made up some kind of a ...well I'm not sure what it ended up as but it was good fun to do....


The toadstools are us.....the tiniest one being little Arn and the words are to remind us of what we should try and do this year...my favourites are 'slow down/speed up' these apply to all of us (except the dog..who definately does not need to speed up!)

Its made from a shoe box...newspaper,wrapping paper,old stamps,vintage sewing patterns,and that fab sticky back plastic that looks like wood.



Have also been having a little play with my fabrics.....



...I'm off now to take millions more pics with my fixed camera :)



Have a lovely rest of the week x x x x x x x x
