I realised that I haven’t really written many posts on our house and what we have done to it since moving in and renovating. I’ve posted about our bathroom revamp, but today I thought I would show you guys our living room and all it’s trinkets.
So here it is…
These crazy-awesome ceramic creations are by Bristol born Sophie Woodrow. Now you know how much I love ceramic creatures, so I was very amped to find these weird and wonderful guys staring back at me from my computer last night – They look like something Tim Burton would make if he took up pottery as a hobby.
– Sophie’s sculptures are not visitors from other worlds, but the ‘might-have-beens’ of this world. She seeks to assemble creatures from the strange notions of what we define as ‘nature’ and of each other as people – as ‘other’.
Hey guys, happy Monday! Just wanted to apologise for being a bit scare around here, I have had a few things going on and because of it my blog has suffered a bit, but I’m going to try my hardest to get back on track and start blogging every day again. Eventually, I’m sure I’ll get back into a routine. So again, I’m sorry for the lack of posts, but I’m going to try change that sooooon.
I have been looking for a pigeon-hole cabinet for our dining room, I haven’t really come across any in a while, so when I saw this guy the other day in Newlands I decided that I would strap it to the roof of Shane’s car and bring it home. Apparently it came from an old government office. It wasn’t exactly the one I was picturing for our house, but I still liked it a lot.
I have only just started filling it up with stuff, but I’m amped that I finally have a nice spot for all my chain animals and horse heads and the wood goes so nicely against our light pink walls.
Thanks Rog for coming shopping with me, I love you my little housewife.
We have been collecting plates for a little while now, lately we’ve tried to find one every time we go somewhere on holiday, that doesn’t always work out because what we want is quite specific, but every now and then we stumble across something cool, like the dog comes from Japan and the McBess meat plate comes from Paris. Anyway we unpacked all the ones we have so far, which we are getting ready to hang, when I see them altogether, they make me very happy.
Got myself some leopard print kicks the other day from Cotton On, they also had American flag ones that I thought were pretty cool. I wore them for the first time the other day and I was squeaking all over the place because the rubber underneath is still so new, I was like a 5 year old dragging my feet around on purpose so I could make noise, it was quite fun. I also got myself some fun socks at the same time. I think they all go with these shoes perfectly.
I also found these beautiful little green coffee cups from Country Road, they had them in yellow too. I bought them so I can make pudding in them and they’re going to looks so sweet in our new kitchen.
