Thrifty Sunday /21

Time to share some more thrifting finds :)

Stocking up on some more magazines, peppermint is awesome!

I've been perusing the book section more of late and this little crystal guide popped up

Heart shaped punch!

A swan planter which unfortunately came, sans drainage hole but I just need to be mindful of not over watering!  I fear if I were to drill a hole I'd have a shattered swan on my hands :P

I'm late on board the Tim Ferriss train but I've been devouring his podcast at a rapid rate and loving all the insights from his guests.  When I saw his books pop up whilst thrifting it was a no brainer to grab them :)

Another book, this one I've had for a while and it's a really easy to follow tarot guide :)

Fluro pink planter stand :)

Shiny gold phone case, picked up in tweed :)

I just finished reading this book and golly gosh, life changer,
I now need to hunt down his other books :)

A red geranium in a cute yellow hanging basket, picked up at a garage sale :)

Some lovely vintage writing paper

I love little details, like the old price tag :)

A cane basket/tray which so far has provided a variety of uses :)

And lucky last, another swan planter currently holding some baby succulents that I hope will eventually spill out over the edges :)

bought/gift/made /03

Time to show you three things of late in the bought/gift/made category :)

First up, gifted from the lovely Ben

A traditional tarot card set which has been on my 'really want' list for ages. I've played around a couple of times and freaked out at the complexity, especially since my last set really spelt everything out for you. I am hoping to get my knowledge skill up over the next few years and start to memorise the cards - gulp!

In the made category, my Japan travel scrapbook of sorts, which I had a request to show you guys :)

I filled the book with paper paraphernalia I collected in Japan including stickers and stamps + included my instax photos I took whilst over there :)

And lastly in the bought category

A couple of zines and stickers I picked up at Zics, a comic zine festival that happened down in Brisbane a few weeks back. I finally got to meet Lilly Piri who I've been following online for ages and who has sooo much talent. I also got to meet a few new artist, including Ashley Ronning who did the Japan zine above printed through a risograph (it's beyond amazing) and artist Honey Elizabeth responsible for the wilder zine on the right and who was all sorts of delightful :)
