Op Shopping

Did a bit of spontaneous op shopping when I should have been opening my bead store early...ahhh but who can resist the urge of what finds may lay behind those op shop doors? Not me, even the added hassle of popping coins into the parking meter didn't deter me. I'm on the hunt for embroidered napkins for a little cafe project that is forming. I came out of the op shop with no napkins, but a street directory, a scarf, a jumper and this groovy wooden bead handbag. Not sure whether I should chop it up for the beads, or just enjoy it as it is. Perhaps it will be a matter of giving it a road test and if it doesn't work then it will end up as beads...kind of like being sent to the abattoir isn't it?
