For Your Information

Here are a few things that I've found along the way to share with other magpies out there.

The more I look for lovely things, the more I seem to find. Its just a case of opening your eyes. A lot of these things can be found on NOT JUST A LABEL http://www.notjustalabel.com/ which features lots of unusual and inspiring designers. This is the perfect sort of place to sell my stuff. I've finally acquired the missing piece for my sewing machine so will have images of my finished collection in just a few weeks. So excited to get things moving and show some photos.

Happy collecting, hording and hunting X

ONE FOR SORROW

A Halloween influenced rhyme of inspiring images. It wouldn't be Eerie enough without a couple of Tim Walker sprinkled in.

The Secret

We have a secret, just we three,

The robin, and I, and the sweet cherry-tree;

The bird told the tree, and the tree told me,

And nobody knows it but just us three.

But of course the robin knows it best,

Because she built the--I shan't tell the rest;

And laid the four little--something in it--

I'm afraid I shall tell it every minute.

But if the tree and the robin don't peep,

I'll try my best the secret to keep;

Though I know when the little birds fly about

Then the whole secret will be out.

TEN for A BirD YoU MUsT noT MisS

Songbird - Fleetwood Mac

Thought I'd leave you with a Fleetwood classic. Got this one stuck in my head today whilst making some necklaces (lovely images SOON - I promise). This led me to looking at some old images of singer Stevie Nicks. Her style involves a lot of black which I love at the moment. Oh and also thought i'd throw in a nude while I'm at it, following on from the previous post. Hell, why not.

For you, there'll be no more crying,

For you, the sun will be shining,

And I feel that when I'm with you

,It's alright, I know it's right

To you, I'll give the world

to you, I'll never be cold

'Cause I feel that when I'm with you,

It's alright, I know it's right.

And the songbirds are singing,

Like they know the score

And I love you, I love you, I love you,

Like never before.

And I wish you all the love in the world,

But most of all, I wish it from myself.

And the songbirds keep singing,

Like they know the score,

And I love you, I love you, I love you,

Like never before, like never before.

Stevie Nicks with her classic style. 

Although the purpose of the above is questionable. I love avacado and I love gems.

With reference to the last post, here are some cuffs! I Love love love ear cuffs. This is particularly lovely with lovely light hair to show it off. I used to think these were a bit butch but now I realise that it was really eye brow piercing that needed avoiding. Having a cuff is also pain free!

No word of a lie...

I know.

Cant get enough of CORDUROY. ELEPHANT JUICE.

Big bird. That is all.
