    I don't think there's a thread for this; I apologize if there is.

    Post cool things you've acquired recently here (be it because you purchased them or received them as a gift or found them or whatever)! To start off, here's my new backpack!

    [​IMG]
    Here's a picture of it immediately before I set to work decorating it. It's a nice big sturdy canvas number in a lovely shade of baby pink!

    Post-buttoning! (I tried to organize the buttons more or less by color...)

    And keychains! Many thanks to @Hatchback for the lovely Charmander. :3

    So have YOU gotten anything cool lately that you wanna show off? :D

    Re: buttoning stuff, how do you keep them from falling off randomly? I always had trouble with that with my shoulder bag

    Very belated, but I loop a safety pin through the circular bit on the pin back!

    Also, @tickingnectarine, I'm so jealous of the Pearl Point button and I haven't even seen pics...I love the Pearl Points.

  8. Reviving this thread because it’s perfect for talking about the great stuff people got for the holidays.

    I got a mini book on mindfulness, a ps4 gift card I used to buy Steven Universe: save the light, a sweater vest, some tea bag holders that look like fishermen and the string on the tea bag serves as the “line”, chocolates, gingerbread hot cocoa mix, and two mugs- one with all the kanto Pokémon on it, and a handmade one with little trees.

    • Three (3) pairs of really cozy socks
    • A pair of swan earrings (I dunno if I'll be able to wear 'em because I have stretched lobes, and they're dangly so I can't put them in my upper lobe piercings, but I'll try and figure something out!)
    • Candy!
    • Thirty bucks total (ten from my Papa, twenty from my bestie)
    So yeah, I acquired quite a lot and am very happy with all of it!! :3
