Here's me (in the turquoise blue) doing some shopping...
(Photo taken by the lovely Kirsty of LovePaperFish while she was patiently waiting for me to finish buying things!)
I bought some cute mini ric rac from The Button Company whose stall (pictured above) was so deliciously colourful...
... I've included a spool of thread in the photo so you can see just how tiny this stuff is!
I bought some on my last visit to FoQ and have really enjoyed crafting with it, it's just so cute (you can spot some on this Christmas Stocking, these Owl Ornaments & this Ribbon Card)... so I was glad to have an opportunity to stock up on some more colours.
I can't see any on their website at the moment, but you can also find lots of mini ric rac over at Paper & String (who also sells fun felt ric rac!).
I also bought some nice buttons from Textile Garden...
... an adorable little sheep, a tiny fish, a sweet donkey, a shiny turquoise button, and a rather cool button printed with a vintage needlework design.
I don't have a specific project in mind for any of these yet but they all simply had to come home with me! Mmm.... yummy buttons....

The fish and sheep buttons are simply adorable!!
I love the sheep, the donkey and the turquoise button!! Awesome!! :)
And well done you on not buying any fabric. I went to the crafty shop yesterday to get yarn - came home with two fabrics, two threads and some buttons, but no yarn... Bad sheep... :(
They are such cute buttons aren't they?
Silly Little Sheep - ah, I know that feeling very well! It is soooo hard to resist all the lovely crafty things, isn't it? :)
