Let me tell you about what I found at a one of my favorite New York City flea markets. I found a vendor selling bags upon bags of scrap! Yes, that's excitement in my voice alright! Only you fellow crafters can truly understand what the value of a bag of scrap means to me.
A brooch, pendants, buckles, faux pearls,
beads, buttons, loose chandelier parts,
a bunch of findings & earrings without a pair...

I picked this little mouse for my first blah to Tada! project
from this bag of scrap. Some rubbing with a soft cloth
made him shiny & new.
