Port Douglas Op Shop Find

I was on hols recently and stopped by the local St Vinnies (I think it was) and my Husbie got a Wombles record and I got:



A Moo Moo (or Mu Mu)!!! The material is pretty:



So I'm sensing a refash coming on for this one as it's pretty big as is, I'll prob post the result in my blog!

AND if you wanna get involved in Pop Trashed - let me know!

Hey there Poptrashed visitors!

Here's a dress I got from SCRAGS, a fantastic second hand store on King Street, Newtown:

A visit to the old Tempe Tip

Haven't been shopping for AGES, but went to the Tempe Tip on Thurs and got some medium sized bits of material (for short dresses or tops) for 50 cents each:



I've heard people talk about the Tempe Tip, but I never really knew where it was and I've driven through Tempe a few times! One day I saw a 'Salvos' sign and jackpot, it's past all the fast food outlets and a left hand turn (if you're driving away from the city), here are the details for NSW Salvos.

I really liked it, the op shop is a massive warehouse (and the shop takes up only half of the space), but there was quite a lot of material scraps and loads of buttons that I'll go back for later.

Yay!
