Maker Faire Finds

June 20th, 2008 Reviews, Tumbledrylow

When I went to the Maker Faire last month, I picked up a bunch of awe­some loot from the Bazaar Biz­zare.
I’ve been mean­ing to post about it for a while, but it slipped my mind until today. 

First, I’ve wanted to get a type­writer key ring with an aster­isk on it for a while. I’ve seen a ton of peo­ple mak­ing these on e-bay or etsy, but I wasn’t into the set­tings that most of them use to hold the key in place. Also, the aster­isk is a much harder thing to come by than the typ­i­cal let­ter key rings.

After hav­ing basi­cally given up on my quest for he per­fect aster­isk ring, I stum­bled upon one at the Bazzar!

This lit­tle guy is from The Week­end Store.

(cameo by my lolita glasses and my 5 week old man­i­cure. yikes!)

Another thing I had been look­ing for at the time was a new wal­let.
I had been pre­vi­ously using the AA Shiny Coin Purse which quickly turned into the not-so-shiny-and-leaving-bits-of-formerly-shiny-crap-all-over-my-purse coin purse. yuck. 

I reme­died this by buy­ing a new coin purse from Miss Ali­son.

She per­son­ally guar­an­teed it’s shini­ness, and so far it’s held up!

Have a great week­end every­one, and be sure to come back Mon­day to vote on the Hel­vetica Chal­lenge!
