Lil' Bits

So one of my {many} hobbies is to find, collect, and create out of pretty jun...... My heart refuses to call it what others might call it, so I'll just call it treasures.
Yesterday I went to Sass (its a little hole in the wall-ish type fabric store in Tempe....a perfect place to salvage little bits. I bought loads of cute buttons and sewed them to a sweater. I saw bright buttons on an Anthropologie sweater from last season but I like my deal better; reason being:
Sweater-$ 6 Last Chance
Buttons on sweater-approx. $ 5-ish
(anthro sweater- $80-ish, I believe)




I also purchased an assortment of lace collars to sew onto vintage (or thrift store..haha) sweaters for about a dollar a piece.

"SEW" cute!
