At The Races

Are you off to the races? Ladies Day?

I have been searching Etsy for some gorgeous outfits for a day out at the races. This is what I have discovered.

So I found the dress from Vintageprincipessa a beautiful cream lace 60's dress.
Then the fascinator/hat from Rundellw embellished with ostrich feathers, rhinestones and a vintage earringNot forgetting the shoes from Crafttastrophe.

All ladies need a bag to put their lippy in. I found this cute clutch from MShandbags.Last but not least the bling. Well I had to choose my "le printemps" necklace and earrings to complete this outfit. Available in my Etsy store.

What Do I Do With This Lot

The cabinet is complete and full of beads, findings,gemstones, etc. I have about 2 drawers that are empty and awaiting my next bead spend.

Now the problem. I thought the men of the house would be fighting over the boxes but there they sit, empty on the dining table.

Hmmmm! One way of solving this problem is ....... Buy MORE beads....

Cabinet Update

How many days have I had it now - 3? I am still trying to sort all my goodies out, inbetween having a bead fondle now and then, coming up with ideas which I sure have forgotten.

I am on the last stretch and need to sort out my purchases that still sit in bags, and to price them up. Oh my that means I also have to remember what the gemstones are, this is a nightmare to me. I can see my Flickr pics increasing and questions flying.

Just a quick post and hope that I can update better over the weekend, I have another gift idea coming up.

Oh and don't forget to check out this post and help a wonderful family in need.
