A.E.B

Oh my gosh! MORE GOSH! Well well well, ain't i a lucky gal!!! Mumma Fitz went to a fayre on the weekend and saw this little box at the back of a table...and thought ''ooh, Liz likes cute old boxes...'' she investigated further...and opened this little gem to fiiiinnndd...

it says A.E.B on it :)
me and mum like to think that it stands for
Arabella Erica Brookes
(no idea...)

then inside....
OMG!!!!!!!!!!!! CUTE!!!! a travel set!
contents: manicure set
two pots (one still containing a pink rose scented powder)
two cork stopper and screw lid bottles
a comb
a hair brush

One of the pots has stuff in it still!
It smells like roses and is pink, so i think its like a shimmer powder
but it could be talc?

art deco style! wweeeeeee :D

little pot of pink powder,

gosh..this is just so..

arg!!! amazing!!!!
he tried to sell it for £2,
mum just gave him all the money in her pocket,
which wasn't too much...
so it was £4!!!!!!
and the money made went toward
emergency housing kits for war torn countries.
gosh.

HELLO HELLOOO!

well well, iv decided that making corsets on their own just isn't going to cut the mustard, or pay the rent, or pay for anything for that matter, so im branching out, into STUFF that girls like. im going to make cutesey one offs and little pocket money buys, and things for boys to buy for their sweethearts. yes.

and to start...i have these little tins.. you cant know what for yet, its a surprise, but you will see ;) i have 31 in all, all different sizes, some much bigger, the size of a quality street tin, and some teeeeeny tiny! god love ebay!!

aaannnddd i also have some bluuueeee gingham fabric, like...dark dark blue, in a wide check, which i wanna make some vintage inspired dresses from.

aaaannnddd im doing something AWESOME CUTE with some tea cups. watch this space.....
