Spring

So what do you think of when think spring?  Most people think about the flowers blooming , getting out and working in the yard, cleaning,  fresh starts.  I however  feel the urge to go  hunting.  This is the season for yard sales and great finds.  There is something special about getting up early going to a flea market or yard sale not knowing what you are going to find.  Maybe you are looking for something specific or like me find something you had no idea you were looking for.  This weekend I went to Boone NC and found a small junk shop off the high way they had lot of old and interesting item there but my big find was  sewing trim.  Sounds boring but when I make something and it needs a special touch I will have it on hand and it was a super deal to boot.  I am getting ready to make funky cozies and have made some fun cuff bracelets too.  I also found some great beads in Boone as well as some awesome ideas for some new projects.  I hope you get out and enjoy the hunt.
