I don't know what it is about the movie Hey Hey It's Esther Blueburger that made me like it so much. But I was so drawn to it that I watched it two times in a row! I really reccomend that you watch it. It's a weird kind of movie but that's what makes it interesting right? Anyone that doesn't consider themselves as normal will relate to it on so many levels. Oh and it is an Australian film :)
Has anyone else seen it?

my boy builds coffins,

My boy builds coffins with hammers and nails,
 he doesn't build ships he has no use for sails.


My boy builds coffins for the rich and the poor,
Kings and Queens them all knocked on his door.

My boy builds coffins he makes them all day,
but it's not just for work and it isn't for play.

My boy builds coffins for better or worse,
some say it's a blessing some say it's a curse.


My boy builds coffins and I think it's a shame,
that when each ones been made he can't see them again.

Photos-Me. :)
Lyrics- Florence and the Machine.

I took these photos on an exursion down my street endeavouring to capture everyones curbside cleanups for my conceptual art assignment. My concern was 'junk' which soon turned into 'new life' and I quite enjoyed doing it. When you think about it, everyone labels anything that they think is no use to them anymore as 'junk', but really is it not just an object that has lost its use as one thing, but can be turned into another? It's about imagination. I havn't edited these photos at all, apart from some cropping and compressing, because I really liked how raw and organic they looked to begin with. Let me know what you think!

Also I have to apologise, yet again, for the huge delay in posting. I have had weeks of assignments and exams, however now I am free. Freedoms never felt so good.

What has everyone been up to?

Lots of love! B xx

you make my day,

“I can’t believe THAT!” said Alice.



“Can’t you?” said the Queen in a pitying tone. “Try again: draw a long breath, and shut your eyes.”


Alice laughed. “There’s no use trying,” she said, “one can’t believe impossible things.”


“I daresay you haven’t had much practice,” said the Queen. “When I was your age, I always did it for half-an-hour a day. Why sometimes I believed as many as six impossible things before breakfast!”
 
 
believe it, if you will, how much I enjoy your company on my blog <3

I heart little miso!


Little Miso has the cutest, jewelery I have seen in quite a while. I recently aquired one of these 'peepos' as a ring (I got the panda hat one) and I love it muchly! Most jewellery is beautifully crafted from wood, which my friends and I discovered today smells unbelievably yummy. Such a wintery, fireplace smell, which is just perfect! All of Janices Law's work is quite lovely and I suggest you check it out at her blog, website, or etsy. !

The year without you has gone so slowly,

Dear Winter,
I know you are really only one month away, but could you be coming any slower?
I mean, I am really prepared for you, I have bought boots, skivvies, coats, scarfs and tights and keep trying to wear them but alas, it is still to hot.
I miss the warm fires you bring with the hot chocolate and marshmellows. I miss the hot water bottles and layers and layers of clothes and blankets stacked on me at bed time. I miss your long hot showers and your porridge (only with honey and sultanas of course).
I am even willing to put up with the cold toilet seats that you bring and freezing tap water.
If you please, please come soon.
Lots of Love,
B
P.S- If it is possible, could you make it snow here too? Thanks,

Even if the moon fell down tonight, there'd be nothing to worry about at all because you make the whole world shine,





I love you. I love all of you so much. Thankyou for you beautiful comments!
My mother brought me home a very welcomed Frankie magazine today, and I so cannot wait to get my but off this computer and lie in bed and read it start to finish. I don't realise how much I miss it during the gaps between each one, until i finally get the next issue in my hands and even just the smell of it makes me smile. Yes, I am in love with Frankie magazine. (:
So I've have decided on a colour, yes an actual colour to paint my room! It should be painted pretty soon though, so I shall keep you posted. I realise I've been lacking on that part a bit lately, so sorry about that, you can call up my school and blame them for all the work thay have been giving me if you would like. haha :)
If there are any more takers for the art exchange, please let me know!
Also tell me what you have been up to....
xo. B
