Chrissie's Timeless          Treasures

Welcome & I look forward to seeing you in Beautiful Ballan.

I opened my very own bricks & mortar store back in April 2019 in Beautiful Ballan after being apart of the industry for over 24 years.
My store, sewing room & studio has become a thriving little Fabric & Vintage hub for  lovers of all kinds of craft & vintage items. You will find me and my store nestled in the Beautiful Victorian Country Township of Ballan. 

Chrissie’s Timeless Treasures

A Vintage & Crafty Haven

At Chrissie’s Timeless Treasures you will find a store filled to the brim with new, rescued & vintage giftware. Patchwork fabrics, patterns, tools & equipment.  New, rescued & vintage haberdashery, buttons, vintage linens & doilies. Knitting needles, crochet hooks & yarn.  Embroidery kits & lots, lots more.
I host my Needlework Gatherings several times a year at the local Bowling Club in Beautiful Ballan. 
Or you can book your very own Sit & Sew with friends in store - maximum of 12, where you can improve your skills, learn something new or just sit & sew with friends.

        Australia Day 2024

                Honours

Oh my, how honoured can a girl feel.  To be recognised and awarded on a day like today surrounded by so many amazing people and organisations in our shire. 
What an absolute honour to be standing and sharing this very special day with all recipients & new citizens. ♥️
I’m proud & happy to have been born & be living in this great country. 🇦🇺
I thank Australia for allowing my Great Grandfather to arrive here in the 1940’s, followed by my Grandfather, Grandmother & Father in the early 1950’s from Greece. 
They came with the cloths on their backs & worked day & night to help build Australia and give their families a life filled with opportunity. They instilled a work ethic, community spirit & greatful hearts in us & I’m so thankful they chose Australia as their forever home. 
Humbled to no end,
Chrissie 💝
