Andy says dust collectors, I say tiny installation type tableau’s grouped together by a frustrated renter. When you don’t have much to work with house wise, you make do with prettying up what you have.
At least the light looks lovely this morning streaming through our vertical blinds.

Me: What’s up etsy shop? You look down…
etsy shop: I’ve had it with you Mosey. I was in vacation mode for 2 months and then when you re-opened me you left me hanging with only a few meager items available to purchase. Humph.
Me: I’m so sorry you feel this way! I’ve been busy I guess, new stockists….
etsy shop: OOOOoo yes your precious stooooeeeeckissstss. I’m your roots Mosey. Your roots!
Me: Alright settle down shop. My stockists are very important to me, but yes you’re right. I do need to fill you once in a while. And guess what?! That while is NOW.
etsy shop: New stock? Balloons? Bunting? Now?
Me: Yep.

Me: Hmmm…awkward.

And now to the ridiculous…. Continue reading “Sublime” »

Last week of the holidays and with this minor heatwave in Melbourne we are taking it very easy. Lots of beach and pool and just hanging around our hood. In fact whilst out with Coco the other day, on our daily excursion to the park, we happened upon a box of hard rubbish awaiting collection. Never one to pass up the chance to rummage through a box of free junk, we dove in and found these two little beauties. We spent a long time scrubbing, polishing and testing them out finally conceding that only one of them works and I use the word ‘works’ vaguely whilst looking over your shoulder and not quite meeting your eye. We will keep them though. I’m a huge fan of the mini version of something. So cute. Continue reading “Sew” »
