I know. I could hardly speak either. The gold twinkled at me. I went forth. The label read Fleur Wood. I tucked it gently under my arm and headed for the counter. The salt container. Craft Group thought it would be great for catching paper scraps and I agree. And the port wine glasses. Perfect for the once a year Boxing Day herring and scnapps lunch we like to have. The picture. The Viking just shook his head at it. I just loved it. So it will stay.
Thank you thrift gods.
Hi there! I could not resist. Here is a beautiful illustration of a Spool Bed by Julia. Julia Rothman. You know how much I love her work because I keep putting her illustrations up here for you to see. And love. I borrowed this image from Design Sponge, who have a whole article devoted to these lovely beds over here. In case you were interested. And I am because we are looking for a new bed (or an old bed) to replace our old bed. Make sense? I think these beds are lovely. Just want to load them up with vintage quilts and jump on in.
I have posted other people’s images today because if you lived here in Sydney you would know that it has been pouring for a few days now. No light = no photo opportunities. I hope to share what the Thrift Gods shined on me last Friday when the sun comes out again.
Sometimes a really pretty one comes along and I just have to share.
Map Garland
Hello. Good morning. I’ve been sleeping a little. Thank you to everyone who came to say ‘hello’ at Finders. It was so much fun. There were so many super stallholders. My favourites – Naomi Murrell, Paper Boat Press, White Square and Little Gonzales to name a few. I got completely toungue-tied while talking to Naomi and acted just like a groupie. I came away with 4 lovely cards. I loved all of Paper Boat Presses’ things. I bought a sweet little birdcage brooch from White Square. I am still coveting Little Gonzales’ David Bowie print (the one of his hair). I just have to find a spare spot on the wall. And talk The Viking around.
Anyway, these map garlands sold out in no time so I’m putting one up in the Shop. Have a great day.
I am making like a mad woman. Today it’s tape bunting. And dot cards. I am so excited about exhibiting at Finders Keepers for the first time. Seriously happy. Rainbow happy. I am sharing with this cool gal. This other cool gal is going to be there too. Go Craft Group.
