Fab Finds #11 - time for organising...!

Lacquer nesting bowls from The Best Things

I made a " Let's get Organised " Etsy treasury recently (I haven't really been finding any time to make any for a while, and so when I found I actually had a little spare time, I enjoyed spending it making this),

... these finds are inspired by this treasury  :o)

new in store...

My shop has (until a few days ago) been closed for about a month, due to life getting in the way!!
But it is now -re-open! Ta-da!!!
To celebrate that I want to add as many new items as I can - as soon as I can!!
You can help, by telling me:
Is there anything you would like to see more of - or something different you think I should add??

Until I have more pics to show you, take a look at my newest addition -

Pretty Vintage paper Ephemera pack / altered art kit / collage goodie bag

more info:

In these fab little kits you'll find lots of goodies for your scrapbooking or collages, they are packed full of at least 20+ items of vintage and new items of ephemera in pretty pastel shades...

they will all have a vintage Bingo card, vintage trim &/or small doily medallion,
and may also include any or all of the following: 
papers, postal stamps, buttons, playing cards, other game / flash cards, board game pieces, story-book cut-outs, handmade embellishments, manilla shipping tags, twine, ribbon, punchies / cut-outs from vintage books, carnival tickets and... 

These are fun for adding to your scrapbooking or cardmaking or altered art/ collage or 
ATC/ ACEO stash...


No two kits are the same, each contains its own unique goodies for you to play with!! A kind of lucky dip bag for scrapbookers, card-makers or altered art and collage fans.

...the photos show examples only of what you could receive.

Note: (These are stock photos), I have a huge stash I am drawing from, so you may or may NOT receive any of the items in the photos, but each kit will be similar!

You KNOW you want one!!!!!!!! :0) go buy one here!!! 
If you mention this post I will refund you 25% off your ephemera kit! (less girly ones also in stock).


This vintage brooch / pendant is also a new addition...

pretty, hey?!


Hope you are having a great week,

Vintage Textiles Love #1

As a textile designer, I have to say that of course vintage fabrics (prints at least) are fascinating to me.


I just came across this fun and fabulous 1973 Marimekko print and thought I'd share it with you.
What a vibrant design and colour combination!

found here

enjoy,

back in business....

...just a quick post to let you know that I have re-opened JAMBO CHAMELEON on Etsy.



As you may, or may not know, I have been closed for about 3 weeks, as life had just become too hectic
with my brother over from Blighty & staying with us, my eldest son beginning school and more; and I was struggling to keep up!


I am looking forward to adding many more items over the coming days and weeks, so please stop by often :D
I am especially hoping to add more vintage & handmade goodies - but you can also be sure there will never be a shortage of buttons in store for you!!!

love,

Sally xox
