A Farmers Daughter & Vintage Fair splurge = happy, happy, happy Bliss ...

The gorgeous Alicia a gives new meaning to recycled "jewellery by a farmers daughter" as she produces wearable art, each with its own history ...
look at what's now mine ...
I'll add more chain to the Studs box ...
don't you love the tin whistle plus the two dozen red glass beads ...
Oh My Giddy Aunt ...
I'm so rapt!
here's the rest of my splurge ...
clockwise from ~
the 1930's velvet lined solid brass purse ...
tortoiseshell pipe smokers thingamijig = for the collection ... 
vintage retractable tape measure = to add to the collection ...
$5 worth of studs & cufflinks = there's real gold in there ... 
5 x 3 cms black glass buttons ...
small round bakelite container ...
3 crown buttons ...
AND ...
the sweetest 8 x 5 cm orange celluloid manicure set ...
faux 10 cm engraved t'shell shoe horn ...
here's another angle ...
showing some of the items open!

Ahhh the result of going to a vintage fair alone ...
with no-one asking "what are you buying that for?" 
Bliss!!!
