On the mend

Today was one of those days. The taxi violence, accidents, traffic, waiting around and feelings of longing amounted to my dispirited feelings. 

However, two things DID make me smile:
1. South Africans making waves on blogs I follow
2. The Hospice shop

1.
Neville Trickett was featured on sfgirlbybay in the post : unexpected guests and family. A familiar name on the SA decor circut, the pictures and text compliment someone who continues to inspire me. His blog, Saint Verde, is uplifting. I just want to touch everything. 



'It's beautiful here' written out in wire and plastic became a household fancy of many a deco followers. Heath Nash also created the much sought after 'flowerball lights', and sparked an interest worldwide. Poppytalk queried 'whatever happened to this designer?' and I couldn't help asking myself the same question.


2. 
I love it here


I went to drop off some clothes that deserve new homes and found myself (as always) on a serious browse. The complex consists of a bookstore, craft shop, coffee shop, clothing outlet and a general miscellaneous source. I'm working on a collage of photographs I took there, but for now - see what I thrifted .... stoked.
