A few purchases.

During the last weeks of 2014 I purchased some items, always in the budget.
From Tiger Stores very reasonably priced ribbons, washi tape and a button making set.

 From IKEA a frame for my woven picture and a set of coasters for future card making.

And again from IKEA wrapping paper, Xmas gift tags, some more coasters, sticker-labels, kitchen utensils and a set of stuffed animals to act out "The Town Musicians of Bremen" at school.

 From PLAISIO colourful quilling ribbons (although I don't make quilling but they are gorgeous paper ribbons you can use at other crafts), eyes for card or felt making and some little stickers.

From LIDL an aromatherapy set. Unfortunately the perfumes inside the bottles are not very strong.

A few threads, beads and vintage buttons from a neighbourhood antique-second hand shop.

And some vintage Greek souvenirs.

What the mail brought-online purchases

I am not an impulsive buyer in real life!Unless I find something extra special at the open antique market! Virtually though I buy things more easily!Anyway as things are tough now I have limited my purchases to the minimum.

Here is something I had bought a loooong time ago from Sonia of Cozy Memories. It was to be used with my mobile. In the end it is used for my spending money!Small as my money!

Then I also bought a little card holder. The coasters are generous gifts fromSonia.

And the last puchase from Sonia is this lovely pair of buckets.

Then I bought this brooch which is lovely and is depicting the sea world.

It is made by Diane Bashaw of Thornberry Studio.I am planning to frame this!

Later I bought something I always wanted to, a felted stone made by the person who inspired me to felt stones, Lisa of lilfishstudios.

And I also bought wool to felt from Lisa.I am looking forward to using it in my future stones.
