Stuff I got recently

Just because they're pretty and stuff:




These tights and badges were from the Sydney Rd festival. Pastels, Barbie, Veronica and Snow White's evil stepmother/queen/witch. I thought they were approps.




Pokemon and Casper the friendly ghost stickers from a two dollar store in Coburg. Coburg is the official sticker central of Australia. My Little Pony fabric appliques and stickers, which were from this Ebay store, and which I am super happy with! I shall adorn my clothes with ponies and thus garner their magical pony powers (of friendship.) Next up: I have turned into a rainbow unicorn and have run away to eat icecream in the Candy Kingdom. :3

Me? I call them...

Treasures. Seriously, anyone who lives in Melbourne should check out Reverse Art Truck asap! It's a little place in Ringwood where they collect samples, offcuts and general left over things and you can buy a garbage bag and FILL IT WITH STUFF. FOR REALS.

Anyway here's some kewl material I got today, gonna sew it on to some clothes so I can be spank! and kawaii and fairy-kei as all hell.




Yeah that's a little sparkly barbie wedding dress, what of it? Also I think I almost died when I saw the pieces of actual barbie material. And I was checking out some Miu Miu shoes the other day and I swear that intense silver glitter material is exactly the same as what they were made out of.

So overall... that place is amazing. And I didn't even start on all the cardboard and insulation and wood and bottles and stuff.

Here is an example of a costume you can make with stuff from there:
