I sent my personal shopper to bead & button

ok, ok, not really!

The truth is even better! I was the lucky winner of Erin Prais-Hintz's giveaway of her specially curated bead &button stash.  Perfect for those of us who couldn't attend in person, what a wonderful consolation.  I can't wait to see what I can come up with from all this loveliness.

It's a wonderful appetiser to the bead soup that is just around the corner (ok, that was bad wasn't it - I can't help myself)

I love that it's still light out, how I wish everyday was this long as it's always kinda shocking to think they get shorter from here on out when summer is just beginning.

I should be turning my attention to the Friday that is almost here and celebrating another Finally Friday. I mean, just look at those wonderful colours, it's a great jumping off point. I could easily spend this longest day of the year there instead, perhaps only in my imagination. Won't you join in too?
