Glorious Loot day 7

Hi, this is my final day of playing the 7 days of Glorious Loot game, which has been lots of fun! Here is my lovely loot for day 7. This was a gift from the most recent swap that I participated in which was The Lovely Ladies Vintage Ephemera Swap This loot was sent to me by Julie. Thanks so much Julie, I love it! Leah

Glorious Loot day 6

This is about one third of my button collection, Grace tipped them all over the floor in my sewing room a few days ago!! I will return some time tomorrow to share my loot for day 7. Have a wonderful week! Leah

Glorious Loot Day5!

This is my favourite loot so far! Mothers day gifts, Harry and Jack put lots of effort into their cards and wrapping paper, they bought the gifts from the Mothers day stall at school, don't you love the pen?? Jack has already planted and watered the seeds that he bought me, I love his little drawings!! Happy Mothers Day to all of the Mums out there, Enjoy!! Leah

Glorious Loot day4

Hello, here is one of my recent Op shop finds. This tablecloth had 4 crochet ladies on it and was free as it also had a burn on it, which is fine, because I didn't mind cutting it up, since it was damaged! I have made a sweet lavender sachet with one already, I forgot to take a photo and I have given it as a gift. There is some gloriously gift wrapped loot sitting beside my little Jack's bed at the moment and it's a Mothers day gift for me. I will share that after I open it tomorrow. Enjoy your weekend! Leah

Glorious Loot day3

Hello, I'm not really sure if I consider these fresh tomatoes loot or hard work! We bought 20kg last weekend and I have chopped them all and turned them into relish over the past week. Working hard to make as many foods as I can to keep our family healthy and happy! Have a great weekend! Leah
