a little sparkle.

if you don't have sas where you live, i am sorry.

it is the most random and wonderful shop

for trimmings, fabric and more.

of course, don't go there if you are looking

for something specific.

it is a what-they-have-is-what-they-have kind of a place.

needless to say, lucy loves it. 

(my boys, on the other hand, 

groan at the mere mention of sas).

the second lucy walks through the door, 

she will spot that little bit of sparkle

hidden somewhere in the piles and boxes that are sas.

here is what her last batch of goodies looked like...

it cost me $3.74.

and with just a little piece of the elastic sequins

(i am assuming intended for some sort of 

dance costume...)

lucy helped me make this headband.

(it was one straight stitch to make it a loop, 

but she is very proud that she "sewed" this little project).

so, if you have a little one who enjoys a little sparkle

in her life,

here is a 50 cent, 10 second idea that won't disappoint...

 be honest, who doesn't love a little sparkle?
