Suitcase Rummage

Laura and I rummaged today. I had a really lovely day, we were under cover on the terrace which was lucky as it drizzled all day. I made a bit of money (about half my speeding ticket!) and chatted to some nice people.
It was lovely to just sit with Lau and Ash, Sarah and Julia all dropped in for a visit.
I only sold 3 pieces of art which I was a bit disappointed with but it really isn't the best place for it. Everyone is there just on the lookout for bargains and not really to buy art. The 3 I did sell all went to really lovely girls (one of whom was Julia so I already knew she was lovely). The first one I sold was to a girl who bought 'You are fucking amazing' for her best friend for Christmas. Julia bought 'You and me' to hang up in her and her lovely boyfriend's bedroom and the third girl had a bird tattoo in exactly the same spot as me and I chatted to her for awhile then she bought my tree and flowers in the white shadow box. It's so nice knowing they are going to good homes.

Laura bought me the cutest bicycle stamp in America which was perfect timing for me to make my tags. I used pages from a tiny Shakespeare book and they were very cute.


I made a couple of new pieces yesterday.



All packed and ready to go!

I really enjoyed spending the day with Lau. We ate sushi, strawberries and macaroon's.


Sarah and her adorable headband.


So I am happy with how today went but I think I definitely want to refine some of my paper cuttings and try Bris-style or some of the other markets around town.
I will definitely still be at Rummage for the next few months though, perfect place to hang out, sell some art, sell some clothes and make some cash!
