Flea Market Finds

 There wasn't a whole lot of thrifting happening around here this week I'm afraid.I did find this patterned Japanese mug on Saturday though.


 It is really textured and detailed.


It inspired me to get out my carving tools and make some new stamps.



I haven't done this for quite a while - it was fun to revisit carving and I love the results ...







If you visit Sophie you will be able to see all the stuff people have collected along their thrifting journeys this week.

I love the pattern and deep texture of the mug. It resembles your carved stamps to the 'T'. Have a lovely Sunday x

Smiles,

maar! that is a-ma-zing!!! as i saw the beautiful cup i felt the texture and thought, rub it, rub it, under a piece of soft paper. you beat me too it, of course, very professionally, by actually producing stamps. i'll say!
you did GOOOOOOOOOD!
