I'm so sorry dear all if I haven't posted on my blog for so long. i have been busy building up my photography business. I have taken photos of a lovely young woman during her pregnancy and then of her absolutely gorgeous little girl, born on the same day as me, how special!! I have photographed 3 sweet little siblings, photos on my blog soon. I have done some work for a kids' clothes label Flossy & Tosh, the prettiest dresses around i'd say, and once they have given me permission to, i would like to put some of these photos on my blog too! You can also check the Redcurrent website (www.redcurrent.co.nz), the big photos at the top of each category are mine!! </div>
<div style="color: #666666; font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">
but in the meantime, i have not been fair to my friends on my blog. I still read you all, even if I haven't had time to write any comments on your lovely blogs. </div>
<div style="color: #666666; font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">

hello.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; color: #999999; font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace; text-align: center;">
just the other day i was complaining about the lack of </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; color: #999999; font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace; text-align: center;">
interesting things in our local opshops.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; color: #999999; font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace; text-align: center;">
the opshopping gods must have heard me, because on saturday</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; color: #999999; font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace; text-align: center;">
i went opshopping, only to a couple of shops,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; color: #999999; font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace; text-align: center;">
and i was very lucky to find a couple of things</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; color: #999999; font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace; text-align: center;">
i am delighted it.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; color: #999999; font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace; text-align: center;">
then, the same day, my sister in law</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; color: #999999; font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace; text-align: center;">
dropped by with a boot full of goodies</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; color: #999999; font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace; text-align: center;">
and i could add to my collection of </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; color: #999999; font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace; text-align: center;">
all things vintage, amongst others </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; color: #999999; font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace; text-align: center;">
a beautiful crochet blanket with a twist,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; color: #999999; font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace; text-align: center;">
and some bbq plates </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; color: #999999; font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace; text-align: center;">
i was getting worried that was it,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; color: #999999; font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace; text-align: center;">
there was never going to be much vintage stuff around</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; color: #999999; font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace; text-align: center;">
and all i could do to boost my vintage happiness level</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; color: #999999; font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace; text-align: center;">
was to go on to sophies' flea market finds (<a href="http://herlibraryadventures.blogspot.co.nz/search/label/Flea%20Market%20Finds">here</a>)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; color: #999999; font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace; text-align: center;">
and look at others' finds, which are generally amazing. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; color: #999999; font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace; text-align: center;">
there's still hope! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; color: #999999; font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace; text-align: center;">
have a wonderful week</div>

<span style="color: #cccccc;"><span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">what does one have to do around here to find some good stuff in opshops?!! i haven't found anything really exciting in ages, so i was very much looking forward to our trip to wellington. we stayed with friends in an area that has (only!!) 5 opshops in a little stetch of road. i was feeling quite positive when i packed all the kids in the car, and off we went opshopping. but. nothing. very sad. it's only one hour before we left wellington that we were told where the good opshops are... So, we will be back wellington! however, on our way home, we found a lovely retro second hand shop, actually they had everything there that i want in my house... so we spent a bit of money. nicholas spent the most with the coolest retro petrol can. i found the loveliest little pixie books for Lulu. i couldn't resist the little pale pink school chair, and that little bambi was begging me to take it home, as for the retro orange bread bin i had been looking for one just like that for ages so i didn't mind too much the price i had pay for it (well, a little bit, but still it looks nice in my house). the problem is that i have come home wanting to opshop even more, there are some things i must find!! in the meantime, i admire the treasures found this week by other players at her library adventures's flea market finds (<a href="http://herlibraryadventures.blogspot.co.nz/2012/04/flea-market-finds_22.html">here</a>). have a look, there's some great stuff there. xx</span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: small;">it's the school holidays, the weather has been a bit all over the place, but we've had some lovely days. taking the kids for walks in the morning i find always helps relax everyone and set us up for a lovely day. yesterday we went to the beach to collect some flat round stones for a craft project (more on this one in a later post). we went with our dear friends hannah, xandy, bella, and ethan. </span></div>

<span style="font-size: small;">this week i have read 'the paris wife', a lovely book about ernest hemingway and his wife Hadley and their life in paris in the 1920s. i love hemingway's writing (i specifically write his writing because after reading the book i'm not so sure about the man himself...!) so i found this book particularly interesting. it's written by Hadley herself and she gives a very interesting insight into the parisian life of artists at that time. but it's also and mainly a book about their love story and she talks about it beautifully. you can read a synopsis of the book by clicking <a href="http://www.amazon.com/The-Paris-Wife-A-Novel/dp/0345521307/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1334380176&sr=8-1">here</a>.</span></div>

I've been working on a small crochet project, like one biggish afghan square, to cover a green tolix stool. Next I will crochet another with smaller granny square to cover my galvanised tolix stool.

<div style="color: #999999; font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: small;">I had decided not to opshop so much anymore because my house was
filling up with too much stuff and it was making my head spin with panic at the
sight of all these things all around me. But then, I keep looking at other
people’s blogs and the gorgeous things they find in charity shops, and, well you know....so I looks
like I am losing the battle…. So, this morning I loaded the 3 kids at 8am in
the car and off we went to town to visit one of my favourite opshops, which
happens to open at 8.30 on Saturdays. We were 10 minutes late, so I was a bit worried that all the
goodies would be gone already. As
it turned out, there was no one in the shop, and the first customers to arrive
after us were about 30 minutes behind us.
But then again, that didn’t make such a big difference, because there wasn’t
much to get excited about. I did
find a lovely cotton sheet, a retro sort of bark cloth blanket/cover(?), my
second retro one so I was rather pleased about that, and a couple of bits and
pieces for the kids. Yesterday I also
found this gorgeous top, I am so in love with it, I would like to wear it every
day, but maybe not…! over the last couple of months, i have also been collecting some lovely old mirrors to put on our big wall, i still need more, but small ones so i'll just be patient until i find the right ones. i love the look for them on the wall. and the bird cages, that's a work in progress...<o:p></o:p></span></div>
