Retro Home Coming

Oh how wonderful, I have moved into a 1950's bungalow with a garden to play in.

The edging is extended and I replanted the lawn, how lush and green. The birdbath is frequented by many a happy bird.

I have laid edging to create a new garden that is full of colourful perennials. And a orange flowering creeper is covering the back fence.

Straw Painting Collection

I started collecting these straw paintings from op shops in Australia 6 years ago. They are created mainly in Kerula, India, and Malaysia.

Cork Art collection

Does one make a collection? This is the start of my cork art collection. Found this one in NZ, it is tiny and kinda looks like corn chip art.

Oh I know it has been done before but I could not resist decorating this tree near my home when I found a stash of doilies at my local op shop. Do you see the skulls?

All about me....

The December issue of The Age [Melbourne] Magazine featured a 2 page spread all about me and my home. My friend James Braund took the photographs.

ps. imagine the bathroom tiles being a million shades lighter, more a faded teal green, Not turquoise... that would hurt my eyes in the morning!

More before during and after photos, this time of the garden pathway. Used up all the bricks by making chunky squares seats with thyme planted in them.
