Goodies

It's been a while since I took you on a tour of my recent purchases, so I thought I'd do that today! Make up for the lack of bead porn from Kelly!!!!
Some tin bead caps from Lorelei's new store, Tin Snippets. I feel lucky I was able to snag some!
Gorgeous porcelain flower pendant from Marsha Neal! I've been wanting one for a while!
Three violet buttons from Lisa Peters Destash - I love when she has a sale! I could spend a lot of money in her store!
Some czech facted beads from BeadShop.com - they were having a sale!
More from beadshop.com - it was a sale, remember?!?!??!?

Great finds! Lisa Peters and Marsha Neal are two of my faves. And I think that the tin snippets that Lorelei is offering is brilliant. I love them.
Enjoy the day!

And, finally, the ones I had in my head the moment she announced the blog hop.  Dr. Seuss sparkly puff balls with ribbons.  The only thing that would have made these better for me is if I could have found the red ribbons I really wanted to pair these with - don't get me wrong, the silver is cool and all, but in my head they w
