1. Yellow Salts from Little Pinwheel (also available at Neck of the Woods in Manly. Formerly Pulp Life).
2. Tomato box from the recycling pile at our local cafe.
3. Neon caterpillar from PB's mum.
4. Bracelet made by Ruby.
My whole life has been an obsession with colours. They can make my heart stop. Twice this happened recently. From this and this. I even emailed Nath to make sure she was in good mental health because there was no other explanation for the selling of those cups. She assured me she was in fact ok.
I schemed to split them with a friend. They were almost ours except the postman charges an exorbitant amount to deliver to Australia, so we set them free. If you are in the UK please give them a home. Tell them we said Hi.
PS. PB says I should apologise for all the backyard photos. I'm sorry. But the warmer weather requires it of us. What it does not require is leaf blowers. Noisy, useless wake-the-baby things.
You are killing me with all the great saltwaters.... I put mine on and then .. I take them off again! I don't think I can pull them off!
ReplyDeleteI am loving your colour!! And the backyards shots ... I am loving this sun.
Happy weekend .
AARRGH! The deep kaleidoscope leggings! I cannot buy them, but you must.
ReplyDeletei second the motion that leaf blowers be banished all summer long - enjoy your backyard while the sun is shining!
ReplyDeleteLoving your back garden photographs and enjoy all the sunshine. Have a good weekend xx
ReplyDeleteDude I scored some Acapulco at an auction once. You'll find it local, you just got to keep your eyes peeled. x
ReplyDeleteMy Mum still has the whole acapulco set - I can remember when she bought it actually. We used it all the time. I feel very lucky!
ReplyDeleteOk. Firstly you should not link to awesome clothing sites that make me positive kaleidoscope leggings are a neccessity and that maybe we can survive without food for a week.
ReplyDeleteSecondly, pipecleaner jewellery rocks. I have a neon pink ring my 4year old nephew made for me from a pipecleaner. He called it the pigtail. There's a fashion designer career just around the corner for that boy me thinks!
ps. love the Salts as always, especially with the blue toes, and major bummer about the awesome set from Nath. How dangerous is her shop? xx
pffft leaf blowers. I have the fan continually going in the little people bedroom just to drum out the noise. I swear they are blowing everyday of the week.
ReplyDeleteoff to buy the leggings, rock on!
go the yellow salts. beautiful work ruby. love the acapulco, imagine the tea party.
love. x
ps. so your fault I just bought those leggings. x
ReplyDeleteThose damn leaf blowers. I once dared to ask our gardener why he couldn't use a rake. Don't think he thought much of that idea...
ReplyDeleteYou know Villeroy and Boch did an Acapulco 're-dux' a few years ago. It isn't as brilliant as the original - but still pretty spectacular none the less. Indeed, I saw a coffee set on the sale table at DJs today for not very much at all.
ReplyDeleteI do so love the outdoorsy photos. And I have serious yellow saltwater envy. My clod-hoppers are just too big! Le sigh!
sounds like you are spending some wonderful time outdoors. vitamin d is so good!!!!

love the yellow salts. i would need a sydney summer tan to pull them off though. oh and a summer x
ReplyDeletei love your backyard pics. don't apologize! i am with music the way you are with colors. certain songs transport me to a different place instantly. your yellow salts with blue toes make me smile. :)
ReplyDeleteGreat pics, love your toenails .... Leaf blowers would have to be one of my biggest pet hates, my neighbor often uses his at about 4.00 on a Sunday afternoon, instant mood kill, there really should be a law against them !!!
ReplyDeleteits so funny looking at your pictures as you move into warm weather and us into cold!
ReplyDeletelove the sunshine and colors.
rogers dad once brought over a leaf blower. donating it to our house in fact. i had a tantrum. a large one. i refused to allow the thing on my land. how dare he. bring such a menace. those things signify laziness to me. pure laziness. selfish. lazy. they say i am so lazy and unable to do the job properly i shall wake up the entire neighbourhood for the sake of clearing my path. and who wants a clean path? dont you love the sound of the leaves as you walk across them. there is also lots of kiddy fun investigating mess on paths. weird people those leaf blowers. i refused to let that symbol of laziness entire my life. jillian
ReplyDeleteOhhh, I so nearly bought that cup n saucer set the other day, it is nothing short of aMAZing. I just couldn't justify it with the postage costs and the fact that recently I have purchased about 1.2 million pieces of vintage crockery
ReplyDeleteI love the backyard shots too, the sun is so magical! You should set up a label for all your saltwater posts the colours are fantastic.
ReplyDeleteI loathe leaf blowers. With a huge fierce passion. *s*
ReplyDeleteI am excitedly waiting for my Saltwaters to arrive - any day now!
ReplyDeleteWith regards to Acapulco, I have one word for you: EBAY!
my first visit to australia was along the gold coast, i stepped into a country road store and spotted these bright yellow sandals. i had to have them they seemed so australian to me. i still love them six years later. enjoy those salt waters...i had a white pair when i was a little girl.
ReplyDeleteThose cups are GORGEOUS. I get short of breath just looking at them.
ReplyDeletei have yellow saltwater envy - they are gorgeous - i am tempted, very tempted. yellow just has to be my favourite and my best! xx
ReplyDeleteBeen meaning to stop by and say sorry 'bout those cups.
ReplyDeleteI nearly bought them first time round, then hesitated and by the time I had decided to go ahead they had been purchased by yourself!
Couldn't believe it when they went back on sale again, so there was no hesitation this time...
No postage charges for me, as luckily, I live round the corner from Nath (and that is a piece of luck in itself, she's a great gal)
I'll raise a cup to you though, next time we use them.
