i love you

These wooden letters are made for printing in letterpress, they stand around 2 inch high and are in unused condition. The blocks are hand crafted therefore and vary from piece to piece. They can be found on the Etsy store Vintage Marvels, which stocks this and many other letter press goodies also. This one will set you back USD$48.00.

the visitor

Lately we’ve been receiving regular visits from this little girl. Our bird isn’t so into it, but we quiet like her.

roids on your iPhone

No, its not the latest toy camera app! It’s a decal! A tiny little sticker like thing to put on the back of your iPhone 4. At least it would make you feel slightly more genuine when using hipstermatic or instragram. A cool USD$6 for this bad boy from the Photojojo Store.

origami style

I actually brought this little origami bird for one of my Kris Kringle’s last  year. But the vases are something else. They come in two sizes from the Oxfam Shop. The larger vase stands at 30cm tall and will set you back $59.95 AUD, the smaller vase is 23cm tall and will set you back $29.95 AUD and the crane style bird is a mere $14.95. But best of all you will be supporting a fair trade organisation by making your purchase.

urban outfitters

I traveled to New York a couple of years ago and while there I discovered Urban Outfitters. Actually I think the first store I went into was actually in Santa Monica, but I loved the mix of home wares and fashion. I brought heaps of stuff from there whilst I was in the states, but since coming home I discovered that their online store didn’t ship to Australia…Boo!!

But it seems this has now changed, much to my delight!! Shipping seems reasonable too. Now if we could just have the AU dollar a little higher, a shopping spree might be in order!

passing ports

Travel need not be drab anymore, so ditch your blue passport cover and trade up to this little beauty. It holds passports which are 9cm wide x 12.5cm high ( which most of them are…aren’t they?!). You can pick up this baby for a cool AUD$11.50  Odds and Blobs also make eye masks, pencil cases and other zip up type things.
