PINCUSHION PIMP

I have already confessed to being a buttonoholic!
Something I am most proud of and delight in every moment I can.

 
BUT
I have further issues......
and I am not sure people will understand!

But,  I am an honest girl and as such
am going to let you in on another little secret.


I **HEART** PINCUSHIONS!
Even better, I can indulge in some button loving and sharing while making cute little pincushions.
How lucky am I!
P.S. I also glued the beads on the pins as well, clever me!

There, I have done it, bared my soul and the sky is still blue and the moon doth shine!
Phew!
The problem now is that my Op Shopping expeditions include not only searching high and low for buttons but, gorgeous little containers are also at the top of the list....


Check these little beauties out.
I couldnt resist that little egg cup there with the orange and blue trim on the base.
The dear old lady behind the counter told me it was very special and was Delft pottery???
Never heard of it before, maybe someone reading this can enlighten me otherwise 
my dear friend google tends to know the answers, when I have a second I will check it out.
Joining in with other creative peeps here....

I HAVE A CONFESSION TO MAKE!


 My name is Michelle


And I am a buttonoholic!
 Please don't hold it against me, my intentions are good.


 I love plastic buttons, patterned buttons, metal buttons, diamante buttons, colourful buttons, 
vintage buttons, modern buttons, fabric covered buttons, glass buttons, flower buttons, shaped buttons, round buttons, striped buttons, chicken shaped buttons, dog shaped buttons, pearl buttons, pastel buttons, small buttons, big buttons, odd buttons, ugly buttons and cute buttons.
I LOVE THEM ALL.


What is really cool as well, is finding gorgeous little boxes and containers to hold my many buttons.
Cute containers ROCK!

I promise to love and to cherish each and every one til death do us part!

Flea Market Find



I found this absolutely adorable tea set and the Good Sammy's the other day.
It is absolutely beautiful.
And....
Even better
It is a Johnson,
oh how I love my ever increasing collection of Johnson's China.

I must say I felt very posh sipping my tea out of this yesturday.

It is from the Snow White collection but after much scouring of the net over the weekend
I cannot find any more info about the design.

Have you seen this before, can you help me out?????

If anyone has got any information on this design I would be ever so grateful.

Linking up with more awesome flea market finds here....
