A trip to the Scrap Exchange in Durham....

... always results in some interesting finds.  I did have a "wish list" {old t-square, drawer pulls, large wood beads, body parts - - plastic of course} and came home with drawer pulls, scrabble game, small metal stencil and wallpaper samples.  Oh, and test tubes for a friend.  Obviously not as hoped for but very useful things.
The largest portion of the wallpaper sample turned into an envelope while the smaller section has a flower added with the stencil and ink pad inks.  Not sure yet how it will be used - - but a good start I think.
