Bright objects hypnotize the mind








The husband refers to my habit of knotting scarfs at the back like this as doing a John Wayne. You just wait until my Lone Ranger badge arrives. I get hopeful every time I spot the postman.

Not that I have an insane Western fascination going on in my clothing choices or anything.. nope. Cowboys were certainly not the theme this Tuesday - I am not sure I can say the same for Rainbow Brite :D Oh Starlite.. your awesome was only rivalled by Jolly Jumper..

Happy weekend!
Hope there is a glorious sunset to ride off into where you guys are tonight ;)

Bananas


Up until the middle of last year I didn't wear nail polish at all but now I view my collection rather like crayons: I wouldn't want to make do with just a couple of colours.

So since I am now officially a nail polish fiend I thought I'd share how I store mine:
In a metal box with lots of bananas on it.
And because I don't like searching for my favourite shade of blue, I put a little drop of polish on each lid, so I always know where the one I am looking for is hiding.

Are you a fellow collector, how do you store your nail polish?

Let's colour!





No digital masterpiece I know, just a couple of cheerful little doodles. A little shaky but surprisingly fun to do.
Originally I had added laser beams shooting from my eyes, but after backing out of that one I just figured:
Let's colour!

I might just make this into a regular occurrence.. Anyone care to join me in doodling on the occasional outfit photo?

Keeping inside the Lines is Boring Tuesdays?
Felttips Taste Nice Wednesdays? 
Fingerpainting Thursdays? 

Nah, I am not great at keeping to a challenge calendar. But if you end up joining in my colouring frenzy, no matter what weekday, please share a link in the comments! I'd love to see :)
