My Finds.

Its December and its getting all very festive. Some shops fronts are very seasonal;wooden mannequins, vintage style props including toys, traveling trunks, fancy picture frames and easels and cardboard Christmas crackers. They are a joy to the eye and really do brighten up the bleak and cold December days.



Belfast has many unique shops; vintage shops with primitive computers,musty hats, maids outfits and other relics from the past , old book shops overflowing with elderly National Geographics and childrens books from times long past, and funky clothes and trinket shops stocked in mary jane shoes, dinky purses and funky home accessories. In one such vintage shop and a charity shop, I chanced upon a Christmas red tablecloth, a red scarf and an apron and here they are, the treasures:



A bargain at £7.25!

On matters less frivolous, an illustrator payed my uni as visit. His name is Terry Something and his work is amazing.Its a mix of pen and water, pen and watercolour and pencil and watercolour.

  1. I've never seen a completely green bike...did you buy it?

    I don't know why but I haven't been on a bike in a few years. I guess I think I'm too busy?!
