I've been sorting out my things over the last few days. I can't take everything away with me. Here are some of my most favourite things:
(Above) This cross-stitched geometric pattern bag was made by my very lovely and gifted nana.
(Above) A lovely painting from my friend Thom.
(Above) A painting I bought of a lovely artist friend of mine in Wellington. It's an abstract oil piece depicting Marahau near the Abel Tasman.
Hundertwasser, thanks Mum. The piece of fluffy stuff off the tree was naughtily plucked off a tree while I was in Christchurch at a rather nice moment. The badge... I'm not really that much of a greenpeace follower these days but I was given it as a kid in the 80s and love the look of it today as much as I loved it then.
I found this wee treasure yesterday. Collectors generally store their varied collections in these types of display cases. Sometimes ornament collectors hang them on the wall. My aunt has one filled with her collection of owls.
I'm finding it useful while I make my necklaces; to sort and store colour themes and sizes. These necklaces are off to www.toggle.co.nz tomorrow.
