home is where the heart is

Home can be the place you grew up, a coffee shop in your favourite city, another person's arms around you, or a very pretty ring on your finger. You can get there with a song, the smell of freshly baked fingerbuns, a glance at a particular photo or on an aeroplane. You can get to the homes below by clicking here.

In the most politically correct way I can put it, I am somewhat averse to the feline species. I just don't understand cat lovers. One of my best friends has a gorgeous cat, (sorry- 'child'), called Hercules who she has admitted she would defend in court if it came down to it. She will no doubt go ga-ga over this necklace from Love Tuu Shop. Funny thing is, while I don't like to touch the real thing without thoroughly washing my hands afterwards, I love kitty kats in design and would happily make this necklace a pet of my own too!

Shaved lately?

Flash back to 1990. I was 10, and about to embark on my first attempt at SAVING THE PLANET.
'Recycle' was the new buzz word so I established a foundation called the Conservation Foundation (so original). I designed a logo, as I did for all my little 'ventures'. It featured a tree (original). Basically I led a team of kids in my class and we collected pencil shavings into paper bags for recycling (God knows why? There was plenty of waste paper around that was a lot easier to come by!).Poor Mum had to break it to me that they couldn't be recycled, at least not locally or for any useful purpose to our suddenly dying planet.
And here, immortalised, a gorgeous silver shaving spotted in Brunswick St, Melbourne..(I forget the name of it but it's the first cool shop on the street near the housing commissions). Or online at oyemoderne.com It's $200 by victoria mason.
