How cute are Good Night John & Jane? I found them over at Polka Dot Rabbit… No idea where the Polaroid picture came from but isn’t it awesome?? (If anybody knows could you leave me a comment? x)… I just think the girl covered in fur looks so dreamy (& I have that exact bedframe!)… loving the ballerina… both from weheartit… those love heart tights are super awesome! Where do they come from?! Anyone? (Source unknown)… pink bunny ears on red hair… cute.. (weheartit)… Braveness – so true (source unknown)… a room filled with balloons… one day I’ll do that for someone, it looks beautiful (weheartit)… beautiful bird necklace by Joanna Rutter & lastly this beautiful box full of folded paper hearts found on weheartit. I hope you’re all having a lovely weekend! xox

All images found on Flickr… hope you’re all ahving a great weekend, mine is fairly exhausting so far, back to work & all the excitement that is The X Factor final… I’m not getting much of anything done!

I’m loving these orange shoes owned by the lucky bitsandbobbins the brightest shoes that I have are green. With frogs on 🙂
Isn’t the mannequin in the bird cage completely random? I like bird cages, I might have to get a pretty one one day (minus the bird!). Mannequins are slightly eerie although I do own a polystyrene mannequin head called Esmerelda. She wears my necklaces. And I’m loving the antlers on the table next to the bird cage. I want some! Found the pic here.
I couldn’t resist the pic of the lovely Elsie’s workspace… I’m just a little jealous x
I instantly fell in love with baby doll in the dandelions… I have a doll like this, Daisy. She is gorgeous! Found pic here.
And last but not least I discovered this unusual art installment by Daniel Buren here. I just love the colours… it would be awesome to see it for real…
Catch up soon *bye*

Before I’m 33 *Wish*List Explanations…

# Make a ‘perfect’ cupcake (click on pic for source)…. I’ve made fairy cakes before (fairy cake/cupcake they’re the same I think) but never one of those ‘oh-my-god-that-looks-so-amazing-i’m-not-sure-i-can-actually-eat-it-cupcakes. And I want too!
# Go to the Tate Modern… I’ve never been!
# Learn to drive… I think it’s about time! I’d love my own VW bug or an old mini 🙂
#Make a birthday cake… I made one once, but not very well. I want to make one this year & it will be great!
#Make jam… I’ve always wanted to do this. How hard can it be? How yummy will it be??!
#Go to Paris. Everybody has to go once…
#Bake a pie from scratch.. pastry & all… I once made a scrummy steak & Guiness pie but I cheated and bought a packet of Shortcrust pastry mix. Hhhmmm I’ve got a few baking related ones on here haven’t I?!
#Fill an entire scrap/collage book… it probably will take me a year to do this 🙂

#Learn to knit… OK so this one was actually one of my New Years Resolutions for 2009 but I haven’t acheived it yet so I figured I’d put it on this list instead!

#Go blackberry picking… I love blackberries. & if I’m blackberry picking then it’ll be warming & sunny. Blackberry picking in the sunshine sounds kind of idyllic to me…
#Read 5 ‘classic’s…. any suggestions welcome!
#Get a sewing machine…. *dreams* I wish, I wish, I wish…
#A trip to the US… I’ll blog about this in a seperate post, I’m collecting weird & wonderful places to visit in the US & I really want to go with Mr J.
#Pretty china tea sets… Mr J would break them, that’s the main problem with this one! But maybe I could ‘have’ some as transitional items before they head off elsewhere…
#A polaroid camera… I used to have one but I have no idea where it ended up. I’d love to replace it anyway!
#New glasses… I’ve had mine a couple of years now & the prescription needs updating.
#New laptop… mine is almost dead. I need to use it for work too so it’s going to need replacing 😦
#A good camera… cuz i’m just using the camera on my phone, which isn’t too bad, but….
So that’s my wishlist so far…
