A little shop at the goodwill store

 


I hear people all the time buying craft haul’s that they shop at Goodwill. I have a few stores side by side to each other and I thought why not give it a try. I really thought none of them would have any craft but a short walk and there I was. 

My best buy are the Alice and Wonderland stickers!! Only $1. I couldn’t believe it. I just bought Alice stickers from AliExpress but they were close to $5 and they are always out of stock online so this was a real deal. 

Under those stickers I bought some blue rhinestones for $1, which are double the length then what the picture shows. 

I also bought some Lucy stickers because they were so cute. Lucy is my dog so when I scrapbook photos of her she can now have her own set of stickers. 

And I bought two colourful and bright necklaces, which I thought were a bit fun. All up it cost me: $11.50. Not bad when I could have bought one or two supplies online instead I got a whole haul. 

Have you ever shopped at a Goodwill store for craft and was it a successful trip? Please comment below.

Crocheting my first blanket

So I decided that crocheting animals etc is pretty stressful. Not really stressful but not relaxing. A cool end result but I wanted to find something to crochet where I didn’t have to count the stitches or focus on the different type of stitches. So I decided to crochet a simple blanket.  I just wanted to use a small amount of stitches and not count them. I didn’t want to do anything fancy. But I still wanted to crochet. I believe if I could find something to stitch that I could just relax doing than it was worth it. I started googling a simply blanket planet using single crochet stitch. And I found one. It’s simple start off with the first row with a chain stitch and then turn it over and do the rest with a single crochet stitch. Brilliant. So I started crocheting a baby blanket. It didn’t work out. The sides were uneven and the blanket was all different lengths. So I googled and realised after I do a row of single crochet stitches, I have to do one chain stitch at the end before ...

Paint by numbers revival

  For a few years, a few years ago (lol), I did some paint by numbers. I really enjoyed the painting and the end result looks amazing.  I have quite a lot of hobbies now and my last two paint by numbers I never finished. I think because some of the paint had dried, because I left the painting too long at times and the other painting I just didn’t enjoy the picture, so they didn’t get completed. I then got distracted with new hobbies such as diamond painting, which is similar to paint by numbers. With diamond painting you match the drill to the number to create a picture.  However, I have redecorated my home and put up my finished paint by numbers. So I decided to try another one. A few years ago, I had to buy the wooden frame with the canvas and build it together but now you have the option to buy a ready frame, where the company puts the frame and canvas together for you.  My most recent purchase is this beautiful image:  If you are interested, please find the ...
