south beach snaps

another guest post from jenna at saffakidlife

i went to visit casey in october last year.

and took some photos of her durban beachfront neighbourhood.

since i haven't shared any of the pics yet, and think i should, here are some:


casey on the pier for early AM surf update

dokotela hands-holding mural outside addington
beachfront tile-clad style 

marketed



a guest post by jenna from saffakidlife.

in spirit of casey's recent months of i heart market stalls, and in celebration of siblingmine's new online store and future store space, i thought i'd share some of my own market finds with you, from a while-ago trip to south america, where markets are all-important, to everyone.

so the photos below are of a handful of market things that i liked, some i wish i'd bought, some old things, new things, pretty things and strange things that i thought you'd like to look at- some picture-time to fill the gap while siblingmine takes an online break.

1. homeware and food finds in central arequipa, peru:



bright sieves and bags

purple tinge and yellow finger things



2. vintage collectibles in montevideo, uruguay:



lamps that reminded me of of colourful bobbins


buttons all tied up with string


box of clocks, bits and bobs
