paint? no thanks




i love unfinished walls and paint work, i think the texture is just so beautiful and photogenic... altho can only imagine the annoying comments from people who come round to visit!

living and breathing

early cinema....


we heart danii


great dress...she made preggers look so good!!

butlers sinks





you just cant go wrong, and when it breaks they make great flower pots in the garden!!

letters and doodles, doodles and letters

these have been sitting on my desktop for a while, and now im not sure where i saw them, but i love a good print, postcard, or drawing, so thought i would share...
this was a revamp on a table, and the poem was chiselled into the surface, so gorgeous, and pretty brave to just go for it and commit to the hammering!!

these are wedding invites and stationary, love the natural look to them, no pukey pink or chunder in a bucket cheesy tackyness!

typography poster, and flowers separated into various random glass bottles, nice!

how amazing is this kids bedroom?? great idea to paint the tree pattern on the wall, turns it into a mini secret garden with the bird houses to store treasure!

looks like a rob ryan print, (unless its a shameless copy!) one of my favourite artists, no house is complete without it!

cute print, like the fresh, simpleness to this room...

love love this desk, altho the black table top makes it a bit too macho for my taste...but check out the photobooth picture, need to try this out... man i love a good b&w photobooth strip, theres a machine in hoxton, but trouble is i dont get over there much these days! day trip soooooon.

simple, sweet, love it.

diy bday cards, all you need is a biro and some paper, never need hallmark or clintons again!

gutted

i was bidding on a drinks trolley on ebay a few weeks ago, my max was £40 because I needed to also drive an hour to go and pick it up, so I was a bit unsure about it. I lost the bid, but then I realised that it went for £41 and I was gutted. Been looking for something as nice ever since, but havent found anything! Then I came across this on flickr - and it was almost exactly like this one! so so gutted! ill find something eventually!!

wrist action

when I was younger I used to have lots of tiny silver bracelets that I used to wear on one hand. Eventually they either broke, or were lost. Ive never really found any replacements, so when I see pics like this (garancedore.fr) i feel jealous, and want some! Am on the look out for pretty gold or leather ones, something that I can wear always and that doesnt need to come off in the shower (im too lazy see!)

we will rock you


went to see 'we will rock you' last night, which was awesome btw. its basically just a we love queen musical, so a bit different to the whole abba/mamma mia idea. but still loved it, and moany and i rocked out waynes world style in our seats!!

cinema

i wish cinemas still looked like this. ahhh the romance!

no regrets

am in bed eating marmalade on toast, feeling proud and glad, and thankful that i am not other people. i am glad that i havent given up my dreams and ambitions for anything and anyone, and think its such a waste of a life hearing everyone else just semi happy with what theyve managed to get for themselves.

a little goes a long way


thought id bring some flowers to a bbq i was going to on sunday, so picked up a few bargain fillers in tescos and then put them all together with some twine... prettyness on a budget i reckon!

bad shoes, great legs


theres no denying that fashion posses have banging bodies. trouble is we all know that they dont eat, and lifes too short to pass on some strawberries and cream! and the shoes may be designer and expensive, but they still look bad bad bad.

ive been terrible




there are just not enough hours in the day... i literally do not know where the time goes. i work long hours, and my home time seems to go by even quicker because of it. i love work, infact sometimes i dont even want to leave on a friday, but im still pretty pooped! anyway, am becoming an expert on early filmakers, and i screen grabbed these shots whilst doing endless hours of research, and the terrible thing is i cant remember the name of this film or who its by, so i will have to figure that out and add it on later! but i love that back in 1900 there was no need for special effects, you just had to rewind the camera or switch the film around! amazing!
