Thrift-ola Vintage Knick-Knack Pack • Toadstool shape spoon rest with owl motif

I decided to create Thrift-ola Vintage Knick-Knack Packs which will be brought through to the online shoppe in a few months time ready for *said in a really quiet voice* Christmas. Sorry to say the C word. To launch the idea I’ve created a cat pack (pictured above) and an owl pack (pictured below) which are both in the ebay sale. Have you ever discovered spoon rests? Mostly made from ceramic they’re a pretty dish style piece that you can rest a spoon in inbetween stirs. The natty manufacturers must’ve realised this use would be limited though as most spoon rests also have little holes in the top so you can hang ’em on the wall as a pretty piece of home decor. Here we have a mushroom shaped version with an owl illustration. Two of my favourite things. Bid here.

owl illustration on scrap fabric • owl shoulder bag

I’m a big fan of design duo Brennan and Burch and at one of their Clothes Show sales I bagged a top with the owl illustration above. I’m an absolute horror when it comes to washing my clothes though and instantly screwed the waistband and neckline by tumble drying it. Ruined. So I cut out the illustration with the intention of sewing it into a back panel of a denim jacket. This as you can see hasn’t happened, so over to you members of the sewing and craft elite to do what you will with this super cool fabric scrap. For the non-sewing owl fans is the best owl bag in the universe. Ever.
