Ribbon

I've had a very productive day today and managed to get a lot of things checked off of my "things to do list." Which is always nice, but it means I'm a tad sleepy.
So I'm just settling down for the night but really wanted to pop by and say a quick "HELLO"
I wanted to share with you some lovely little crafty supplies that my little sister gave me last week when she came to visit. ..... Some adorable ribbon!!


I don't think it could be any cuter!


My favourite is this one with the soldiers, I think it's so sweet.


And a bag full of buttons :-) I was rather happy to receive new buttons as my supply is running short and they are sooooooo expensive here in Germany. They will definitely come in handy!


I believe she bought all of these cute gifts from The Makery Emporium in Bath. Its one of my favourite little shops from home! Thank you Hannah!!!

Anyways.... Sorry it's only a short one from me tonight. I'll be back soon!
I do hope you are all MARVELLOUS!!!!???
I need an early night tonight, so I'm off to bed :-)
Goodnight xxxx

    Just wondered if you have ever tried knitting some buttons - quick, easy and matching your project - the gift buttons look yummy tho.

      I can honestly say that i never considered it. You have definitely started a catalyst of ideas and I'm sure I'll be making crocheted buttons sometime very soon! Matt xx

      Fab! Can't wait to see what you do. I love the way you present your work. I just googled crochet buttons images - what an amazing mass of inspiration and free patterns - off to get my crochet hook ..

    Hi Matt! Maybe you should check out Etsy for buttons! There are lovely buttons out there for less than you would pay in stores!

    If EVER you come to Thailand for a visit...button galore and oh so very VERY cheap!! I love buttons as well and have bought quite a supply since moving here lol. No idea what to make with them yet but ideas pop in my head from time to time so will make good use of them one of these days.

    greetings from Thailand....Marian

    Hello, I'm a new follower too! Really enjoyed reading some of your back posts :) I stumbled upon The Makery Emporium when I visited Bath a few years ago - more accurately, it sucked me in, like a moth to a flame! Delightful shop. (I blogged about it here: http://thehouseofjones.wordpress.com/2011/07/04/the-berts-birthday-in-bath/)
    What a thoughtful gift of the pretty buttons and ribbon, look forward to seeing what you make!
