Christmas 2010

Last year I had an amazing Christmas and was spoilt beyond belief.  Among other things, I received a Spanish Tiki mug, a Wahine Bowl and a Matte Stephens print.  I have to thank Gemma Jones for helping Donna secretly arrange all the surprises, I had no idea Donna was capable of  such covert sneakiness.  All the mentioned gifts were purchased from OutrĂ© Gallery in Melbourne, one of very the best places to blow all your cash and gain a wealth of amazing arty goodies.  If you love art with a twist, you should definitely check them out...

My Room

This post is dedicated to my room.  Donna and I will be moving out of our apartment soon, so I thought I would get some photo documentation for nostalgia purposes, when I want to look back on the early years.

Shadow Box

This is my shadow box, we have a few around the apartment and it's a continuous journey to fill them with folksy little treasures.



This is a closeup of a brass deer in my shadow box.

Bedside table

I bought this bedside table a couple of weeks ago.  I was not going to buy it initially because I have bought so much furniture lately and I don't really have anywhere to put it, but thankfully my girlfriend talked me into purchasing it.  Oh! And it was only seven dollars! BARGAIN!!!

Salt 'n' Pepper

Here I go, here I go, here I go again...

My partner and I collect salt and pepper shakers.  We only have twelve pairs so far, but our collection is slowly growing.  Every time we go to a market or an op shop, we are on the lookout for more to add to the collection.  Here are a couple of photos of our salt and pepper shakers.


This is our hutch, it contains some of the little acquisitions we have made while on our preloved shopping adventures.

Sailor Jerry

The best cat in the world! This is Sailor Jerry playing in my waste paper basket.  He loves wicker, he has a scratching post that he never uses, instead he chooses to scratch at the wicker furniture in our apartment.

New Blog

It's now 2011 and I thought I would start a blog...  For the most part, this blog will focus on art, culture, found images, op shopping, tattoos and of course, my life.  Feel free to leave a comment or just say hello.
