playing housie

one day soon im going to play housie in my very own REAL housie :) well it may not be my own at first, but same thing really. and so i've been blog-hopping for inspiration... here are a few of my favourite..

love the light and airy feel of this one, and the pastel teal colour is beautiful

 love this copper bath.. and ESPECIALLY love the random photo on the wall.

 have a thing for glass bottles lately

 this is just the cutest little housie.. noo noo, i want to poke it!

 as a little person i was always making tents in the living room, at the irritation of my mommy. wouldnt it be fun to have a grown up tent in my own grown up house? with a chandelier too!

 this reminds me of a beautiful little restaurant in stellenbosch that me and dear jenna wenna visited on a rainy day. odds and ends are lovely in my eyes.

 love vintage tins. derrick - not so much. but he says i can do whatever i want as long as he has a comfortable couch and the kitchen's not pink:)

 70's inspired living room. i like it.

 white everywhere! with a funny bird. and porno fluffy bed cover, the zebra is pretty porno too, although im not such a fan.

 polka dot wallpaper and vintage frames.. love them.

 this is probably my favourite of the lot.

this wallcolour is lovely, with the random pictures and retro chest of drawers.

so many options, and so many things i like. and maybe no money, aint life grand :) but really it is.. more of an excuse to go second-hand shopping every weekend. yay!  xx

today we almost lost geoffrey

it was almost a very very sad day today. but alas! geoffrey came home. the silly boy went missing and he wasnt back by suppertime.. and we know how much he likes his food. 

as the story goes.. when my mom got home, there were beads and velcro scattered all around the lounge.. and tinkerbell was running around like a nervous wreck. so our assumption is he jumped amongst the velcro, got it stuck all over, became terrified, caused a stir, and ran away. then around 9pm, after i'd walked the streets for 2 hours, crying by the gutters, being comforted by my brother, and comforting my other brother... all the while imagining him hungry and cold, scared and lost, this big lazy greedy temperamental big ball of fluff, lost in the streets, never to be found again..

and then i have this urge to check in the front one more time.. and mister fancy pants justs comes waltzing in.. ok no.. he wasnt really waltzing, he did look a bit frazzled and on edge, but walk right in he did.

and where he was all along.. its a mystery! but boy im sure Milton is glad to have his big  brother back.

swimming horsies

i know its random, but i really like this picture. they're like one big family, and who knows why they all had to swim across the river. i do wonder. maybe the grass was greener on the other side.
