    Any furniture experts on board?

    Flea Market Find I found this at my local flea market. They were asking $40. I didn't pick it up because I don't have room. Should I make room? Anyone willing to convince my husband that we need this piece?:D

    Dax Short and Neat - pomade or what?

    Dax Short and Neat (blue tin) is my husbands absolute favourite for slicking back hair. We never found it here so my husband had my parents send over a dozen cans from England before they moved back to Canada. I hope you like it!

    Vintage Buttons Yay!!

    Foofoogal - I agree! I'm looking forward to having more than I know what to do with. It's easy to pick out fabric for a project. But it's the trims, buttons, zippers and embellishments that I have the most fun choosing. LD - Those are super cool. Any idea what to do with them?

    Lauren - I love the pads pattern. Especially the hip pads! Are they meant to be attached to the clothing, or worn like/with shapewear?
