We have a lot of bits and bobs to get crafty with:

Pre-loved:

Beads from old jewellery

Buttons given to us, mainly used

Wire stripped from coaxial cable and electrical cable

Many wooden rings from old curtain poles

We do have some ribbon, glue, glitter glue. old nail varnish, donated fabric bits

We spent one afternoon sorting and washing the buttons. and another sorting the beads and dismantling the jewellery.

Lovely social afternoons, sorting and chatting.  We love to try and re use of we can, and are always on the lookout for items and ideas.

October and November will be taken up with Christmas and poppies.  Hopefully we will get some inspiration for some new makes.

We need to collect bottle caps next, to make some fabric coveted bottle cap coasters.
