A fine little day

It's nearly spring time! The day after tomorrow in fact! I would be super excited except for the fact that, typically, it's going to rain. - Gah! I wouldn't be upset if it fell on a Saturday and I could could snuggle up with Casten drinking hot chocolate and having a delicious German breakfast.. but alas it doesn't and.. wait for it.. he has the German measles.. Irony at it's best. If all fell into place I'd also have a cat, a beautiful, clever, loving and cuddly cat... Since I don't have a cat, or my pet hating landlord forbids it... the next best thing is kitty photos I found on ffffound.com. I'm not a weird cat lady but if I saw a bunch of these little ones, I could be persuaded.

Wonderful Wharf

My shared sanctuary.. I lived in fear of sharing it with some smelly boy who loves neutral colours (ie BROWN) okay, we do get pretty shades of brown but he does insist on colour resembling those of one’s bowel movements (excuse the graphic translation but it’s the ugly truth).

I love light colours, lace, and bunnies. This room is mine from the wooden chair, the vintage dress to the little copper owls – I love owls, in my room, draped around my neck or delicately piercing my ear. But alas this room comes without the hairy German and I’m almost certain about my choice between the two. Although the cat is an extremely close second – she’s awfully pretty.

Pretty little houses

I recently stumbled on some beautiful blogs surrounding the magic of interior design. I’ve only just started enjoying the feeling of spending money on myself – clothes (okay, still Mr Price),shoes… PNP pumps count? Woolies food! Yummy, real strawberries.. and now I see there’s another mountain of beautiful stuff this thrift princess has to conquer. I do have some obstacles namely in form of a giant hairy German and his ever annoying kitsch phobia (I’m sure they have a professional or clinical name for that) My darling sister (or fashion rival) and my ever present need for daily design inspiration have brought me to my knees. I want a vintage house! Flat! Room! One space in the house! Give me KITSCH!!! It rhymes with my name; we are destined to be together. But since my many obstacles hinder me so badly, I can only but dream…

I start with different rooms of the house, perhaps on different days. I don’t want to tire of talking about my dream room.. I have many.
