It's the little things

This weekend's delights included an interview with a fabulous woman associated with WOW, the World of WearableArt for a national magazine and email interviews with folk from New York, Manila and Fiji. Go me...

There was also the winning of an auction on TradeMe (think eBay but with loads less good stuff) of these cool old vintage boxes for the princely sum of three bucks fifty. I do believe they began life in a scientific laboratory of some sort. My vintage cup now runeth over and the Animator is threatening a fatwa on any further purchases.

For R&R there was this fabulous teevee series. Love, love, love.

The industry continues

While I lashed myself to the laptop, the Animator got busy in his man cave.

The result: a much needed shelf in one of three wardrobes I currently occupy (yeah, yeah, I know).

There was also the sorting out of this way cool vintage picnic basket I found on TradeMe which, I'm guessing, was last cleaned when Margaret Thatcher was Prime Minister. But the Animator waved his DIY wand over it and it's now good as new.

The garden, meanwhile, coughed up the final roses of summer.

  
And then there was this wee poppet who has such a tiring life, he needs to spend most of the day in slumber. Preferably between two pillows.

I want to come back as him.
