upholstery samples
Upholstery samples. I ♥ upholstery samples and am so lucky that a lovely lady thought of me when her mother was condensing her stash. On arrival home from Christmas I was greeted with four boxes of upholstery samples! Yes, I nearly fainted.
Being realistic, I am never going to be able to use them all. I have been offering an armful to everyone that walks through my front door, and before I send the excess to the op-shop I thought I would offer them to you.
I have excitedly sorted through and put together a collection for myself. There is still an abundance remaining, especially florals as I am not really a flower kind of girl. I will send a package out to anyone in Australia who will put them to good use, please spread the word if you know others who would too. (If you are o/s and upholstery samples make you giddy please email me and we can work something out to cover postage costs).
If you are interested all you have to do is leave a comment with some ideas about great online clothing stores or etsy clothing sellers in Australia. I have christmas money to spend on updating my wardrobe but unfortunately yet to find anything I like!
I hope you all have a nice week, if you are like me and going back to work tomorrow remember to drink lots of tea to aid the adjustment.

Hiya,
lucky you! (and lucky us, for your generosity!)....
Not sure if you like retro-style clothing, but I like Tiger Rag clothes. They're based in Brisbane I think.

If I only lived closer...
hey i had exactly the same issue re finding clothes! i think i do every year.
i bought 2 of these dresses, one red {actually my sister bought me this one for xmas} and one black. 2 of the same dress due to lack of inspiration elsewhere! they are great - the cut is v flattering!

May I suggest you make your own skirts from the pattern in the book 49 sensational skirts... See my blog! FANTASTICALLY EASY but great results!!!
I'll put my hand up for some florals if you have any left.
As for online clothing shops, do you know Dogstar? http://dogstar.com.au/
