pretty spats

Chrissy shopping on etsy I cam across these pretty "spats" by La Jolie Femme De Marron. All up-cycled, there is myriad designs in her shop. So special. Thanks to Natalee for the photos, she also has a blog here.

Here I am again. Melding back into reality.
Chuffed to be at the blog once again, so please come back and read.

a bear and a strawberry tree

Madrid. Is there a city with a cuter coat of arms? A sable bear eating strawberries on a strawberry tree.

painted lantern

I was inspired by these light fittings in one of the lovely rooms we are staying. It is a nice spin on the white paper lantern that will probably always dangle from my light globes. I thought home-painted versions would be a fun thing for children's rooms.

lolly legs

A creature who's parts get stuffed in my backpack and carried around as I create them on our travels. Thinking candy colours teamed with white are yummy at the moment.

I normally don't like the constant glorification of fashion in the blogoshphere, but today I must be hypocritical and point you towards sesame magazine. The again candy colours in the sirens and rainbow bright photo shoot are taking my fancy. Also watch the sweet celine and lou lou, by talented and creative animator Isobel Knowles.
