because i can't help myself~

i feel like my kids when they clean their rooms. they could just go in and get the job done, but everything they find they play with or read, it's so cute and a wonder as they rediscover their stuff...i'm doing the same. as i'm cleaning my studio and destashing, i'm also finding ways to create and items to create with. golly, i even bought some wonderful yummies from kim and petra that will be mine. can't help myself! good thing i'm on break and can take some time for me. xoxo

thimble necklace

i just love old thimbles! they are utilitarian and ornamental. some are lovingly decorated and some are very humble. one can find them in a variety of materials as well as colors. too cool for school! ode to the those that sew with love and gusto.

~vintage beads, pretty silver with old leaf dangles, thimble (i sew, i love sewing stuffs), bike chain links, steel. here's to a glorious day y'all!
