Quietness-Time for some creativity

So yesterday was an ordinary day, just like any other. So I have had a spaghetti glass container that I have been wanting to try and decoupage. Now keep in mind this is my first time decoupaging on a glass jar. I was positive and creative, hehe. Some days before I had cut out nice pics from an old magazine(I picked up from freecycle) http//www.livingetc.com/

So here is my project in its glory

So I just addes some Elmers glue/or decoupage glue(its all the same really) to the back of each picture and pasted, pressed and tried to get the creases out. Then used the glue on top off all the pictures after I was done. Noticed a bit into the project that its better to use the larger pieces and adding the smaller detailed pics on top of them. Now keep in mind this is my first one. I am happy with the final project. Its my new pen and pencil holder I think, since I dont own one right now. What do you all think?

I went shopping at an antique shop

Østlandske Auksjon og Handel-Tordenskiolds gate Strømsø

Unfortunatly they dont own a website, which I think is unheard of these days. So you see how it took me almost 1 year to find these guys.

Its a little expensive, but on their second floor they have rooms filled with beautiful pillow cases, comfort covers, old tablecloths, lace and crochet items.

My eyes quickly fell onto a beautiful comfort cover and pillow case to match, but I immediatly thought that too would be pretty expensive. Considering their prices. So when I found out the price, I almost died. Well, not literally.....Only 30 kr, which is about 5 USD-Amazing if you ask me. They were "LIKE NEW" still crisp and unused. Aren't they pretty????

Tomorrow I am visiting a new shop I happend to stumble upon while driving to the mall. I never went in, but tomorrow I will explore the store and soak it all up.
