The Tinsel Trading Motherload Part 2

Yesterday I showed you my new metallic thread from my favorite shop that I have never visited. Today I will show you all the other goodies she picked out. I literally gasped when I opened the package she sent. Maybe you will too...

 
I spy: 2 packs of metal sequins, appliques, more metallic thread, rhinestones, shoelaces, faceted glass cabs and more! 


Metallic millinery leaves- so beautiful!

 
A box of assorted metallic ribbons, threads, fabric and bullion. Some of the ribbons are so heavy!



 
There were even more items tucked underneath the top layer! Do I have the best sister or what? She is not even into all of this as much as I am, so I just think it was so wonderful for her to do this for me. Hope you enjoyed my love affair with Tinsel Trading, how will ever I bring myself to use this stuff?

Uncommon Objects

Have you ever been to Austin, Texas? No? Well I highly recommend it. I went this spring with my sister and on top of it being one of the coolest places "vibe wise" that I have ever been, they have one of my favorite stores in the world: Uncommon Objects. Pretty much the only pictures I took were from the shop, so here they are:

This beautiful world...



*Sigh*-bottles



My Mom gave me this exact lazy susan for my birthday a couple of years ago. I love it for parties!


If you ever go to Austin you have to stop by. Everything is amazingly arranged and displayed. It is a dream! My only regret- I was pregnant so I couldn't sample a margarita at every stop. Oh well, something tells me I will be back!
