JaM - A is for Announcements, Adventures And A giveAway

Joining in very late with Jodie meme.

This has been a week of internet connection woes, apparently bigger "towers" needed to be installed which affected everyone even if you weren't with that company! 

Anyway back to JaM,  my announcement and adventure;

I'm off to the the Kooky Kidz Market in April, should be fun, now I just need to get busy and make some goodies.  

Flea Market Finds

It's been a while since I joined in Flea Market Finds, not I haven't collected any treasure, I rarely walk out empty handed.

I love buttons and just can't get enough of them. 

This funny little glass bowl was only 50cents.

Pop over to Sophie's to see other treasures. 

My Place and Yours

Today's theme is "outside".

It's a humid day and trying to rain so this is outside my kitchen window.

  

We live in a small cottage with close neighbours on either side and long skinny blocks, sometimes it's a bit like caravan park living.

Pop over to Vics and see what else is outside.

Where do you drink your tea is this week's jam 

I love to sit outside and watch the world go by under the frangipani tree.

This is my favourite mug at the moment filled with French Earl Grey.

This is my other spot outside depends on the weather.

Pop over to Jody's and see where others drink their tea.

Happy Australia Day

Throw another chop on the barbie, so they say.

Apparently it's all about the lamb today but as I grew up on a farm I feel like we were fed lamb for breakfast, lunch and dinner so I don't eat it. Of course my mother says this all nonsense. Yes I know spoilt brat.

I chose blue swimmer instead, with a pesky kangaroo.

Lammingtons are always an Aussie favourite.

Hope everyone had a great day. 

Tails and Fairies

Sunday we are off to a Fairy Tale 21st Party and I am the naughty Fairy God Mother.

I had forgotten how stressful it was to play with tulle, I bought 2 black dresses from the oppie, the one underneath is taffeta with shoe string straps, perfect for a petticoat.

I made the bodice from the other black dress and added a tulle skirt and I have wings as well.

Joining in this weeks JAM, whatcha got.

Adding to collections, I collect lots of things and probably too much but I love Johnson Bros Dream Town.

I only have 3 plates of various sizes so far you don't see it very often.

 I was delighted to find this plate in the oppie the other day for $2.
