MADE, AND TABLE RUNNERS FOR THE VILLAGE

 

The FBG's are going on a trip to Hamilton Zoo this morning, and much as I'd love to have gone, I'm stuck here doing a good deed.

Three of us are sewing up red table runners for the Village dining tables.  *sigh*  Let's chalk that up to doing my bit.

I also have Craft Group this afternoon, so I anticipate being down in the craft room ALL DAY today.

ABOVE: We visited MADE yesterday, it's a small 'plaza' type place in Hamilton East.  

ABOVE: It has predominantly eateries and fresh food shops, with a few gift type shops as well.

ABOVE:  I saw a lovely cushion (perfect for sitting on the floor) in CITTA, and Stew was going to buy it.  He thought it was $79.

NOPE.  The inner cushion was $74, the cushion cover was $170!  It stayed in the shop.  I didn't love it THAT much.

I left muttering "DAYLIGHT ROBBERY".

ABOVE: We then went upstairs, poor Stew struggled with the steps... and found a lovely gift shop called 'What's Up Buttercup'.  It had two sections across from each other ... baby/kids wear and gift ware.

ABOVE:  Stew spied something, and we ended up buying it.

ABOVE:  Another house!  Yep, we just keep buying houses.  

ABOVE:  When we were looking for a new, smaller home, we looked at an apartment over there, in the lower right area. But nope, it wasn't for us.

ABOVE:  Lovely views across Hamilton City from the upstairs bar/restaurant.  

ABOVE:  The light in the stairwell at MADE... very nice eh?

And.... that is me for now.

Catch ya later, I'll probably update from the Craft Room.
