Fit For a Princess in Wonderland

 
I had planned a different post for today, but as soon as I came across these I just had to share! My fiance’s sister had a wee baby girl last week (which, I don’t think I have to point out, is simply wonderful) and while searching for gift inspiration online this afternoon I stumbled across the most amazing shop. Inspiration is definitely the key word here, for these are a tiny bit out of my price range, though if I could afford it I’m telling you now - little Cara would have the most whimsically wondrous room in the land. I’d have to buy her everything on here!

Anyway, the shop in question is called Posh Tots, an American site which I’m sure many of you have already encountered in your travels through cyberspace. In fact, I’m sure I’ve been on it before too but it was only today when I had a proper nosy round that I realised how utterly fantastic it is.  Dressers and drawers that Alice herself would approve of, beds fit for a princess, and, oh, the playhouses! You have to go over and check out the playhouses. They do have a more ‘grown up’ outlet too, but it’s the kiddie stuff that rocks. Never mind the little ones, I want a wonky chest to store my socks in!

Garden Fairies


Since I haven’t posted anything fairy-related in ages I thought I’d share my latest Flickr uploads with you today. I may have already shared a couple of these ages ago, they’re from last summer, but if I did they would’ve been without the textures (since I only added them last night). I know, it would probably fit me better to get out there and take some new photos instead of playing around with oldies, but everything just looks so dreary at this time of year! No sparkly ice or fluffy snow, and no flowers in the garden or sunlight through the trees. Just heavy grey skies and dull wet streets. Miserable.

Ah, The Good Old Days


I’m aware that the last post was shamefully self-indulgent so to make up for it I thought I’d now bring you something unashamedly geeky. It warms me to know that many of you who drop by this little of corner of cyberspace share my love of all things nerdy, so when I came across these retro-style Sci-Fi posters I couldn’t not post them. The Star Wars travel ones are by illustrator Steve Thomas while the Trekkie propaganda posters are available to buy at ThinkGeek. Enjoy!
