WOYWW - All the deets on how to link up etc. and, more importantly, why you should, can be found at the top of the page. Thank you Julia for reminding what day of the week it is!
I hope you are sitting down . . . . I have stash!!
My desk . . all laid out to tell the tale . . .
Between DDN and myself we managed to find a few reasonably priced ones . . . .
In a different time zone, DDN off loaded her craft stash unto me . . . which included some Flowersoft stash . . .I have a bit more now!!
Then there were these . . .
Altogether a good day . . . maybe not a lot of stash but enough travelling for me in one day!
Anyhow, my local Japanese shop, https://www.japancrafts.co.uk/#/, sent me an email about her latest finds . . . . . I'm saving money in the long run . . . .
The screen reminds me that the Commonwealth Games bull is going to have a new home . . . . .
In Grand Central at New Street Station . . . . there won't be any of this though! . . . .
I can understand you loving the Bull, he is gorgeous and am with you on the happy front that he is saved for another day - and hopefully many of them.
ReplyDeleteA tip for the Brushos - you know how you get in a mess with it staining your hands - well Arm & Hammer toothpaste is brilliant at taking it off, just use a little and rub into your hands, it also leaves them feeling nice and soft.

Oh I am pleased that the Bull is being relocated, he’s such a fine beast and deserves to be appreciated in the future! Hooray for having a little spend too, it looks like you’ve got some really useful bits and pieces there, have fun using them!!

I saw the bull on the telly. It would have been such a waste if it wasn't rehomed. Love the new stash....have fun with all that.

Oh yes I saw the Bull on the news the other night - great news he is going to be re-located in the station. Looks like you may have got a few bargains there. I'm afraid I am not doing very well at not buying any new stuff!! I blame Christmas, too many vouchers needing to be spent!! Have a good week, love n hugs Cindy xx
ReplyDeleteP.S. Yes am taking care of myself especially as I've now tested positive for Covid. Bummer, second time in 6 months!!
The bull is fabulous, always great to find a few bargains x Happy WOYWW. Angela #14
ReplyDeleteThe bull is indeed fabulous Christine and I am so glad he has found a new home post games. Glad you managed to score some new stash too. Stay safe and Happy WOYWW. Sarah #1
ReplyDeleteOH! Great buys. As for the Bull, I'm so glad he is being kept too. Someone's art has been appreciated, we all know about that, don't we?
ReplyDeleteI saw on TV the other day about the Bull having a new home, so glad that he can be enjoyed by many ongoing. Well done on the splurge and I look forward to seeing it in use. Helen '#3
ReplyDeleteThat bull really is something. Lovely he will soon have a new home. Your haul is very restrained but all useful stuff. Enjoy! I love new stash :)
ReplyDeleteLate in, but on the day!

I had a look at the Japanese shop, it looks really interesting. Pleased you had a good time at the craft show too and the bull has survived. Wishing you a very happy and creative woyww, Angela x10x
ReplyDeleteWe saw the bull was being relocated and hope to visit Birmingham by train sometime! I'm looking forward to the Paris craft show - Version Scrap at the end of March. Hugs, Chrisx #18
ReplyDeleteA great location for the Bull, now even people just passing through will see him. It’s so clever that he’s not mae of metal! Like your new stash, can’t not love a bargain huh! Have fun with it all!
ReplyDeleteI love those stamps, especially that 'leaf' (what is its name again? ) and that bull is something... but I especially smiled when I read that Japancraft has new finds... I will hop over to see. It is difficult these days to order from the UK to the Netherlands but when she offers wonderful fabrics, I might try... Thanks for your visit to my blog yesterday, have a great week! Hug from Holland. Marit #6
ReplyDeleteWhat a magnificent bull! It would truly have been awful if he had just been trashed. Great haul, I haven't been to a craft show in probably 20 years! Have a great week, Lindart #19
ReplyDeleteGood morning, Christine. That bull is an amazing piece of art. So beautiful. Thanks for sharing him. Finds are always good. Our first stamp show won't be for 3-4 months yet and is 4 hours away. I have to contend myself with shopping with Spectrum Art Creations on their Live Saturday sales and playing their games. LOL or my local craft box store. Creative Blessings! ~Kelly #17
