shrek the clever sheep...dodging haircuts for 6 years

everybody meet shrek the sheep

shrek went missing years ago and was found in 2004 after being hiding out in a cave for quite some time. when they found him, he was weighed down by a whopping 27 kilo fleece. i guess this time the rhyme was correct, when they sheered him they literally got 3 baaags full ;-)

he became a sensation, childrens books were even written about him.

poor shrek died last weekend, this is in his memory

no it's not vertical planking...

Natsumi Hayashi isn't just a sweet-looking Japanese girl. she, very randomy one day, decided to take self-portraits...of herself... levitating. (no it's not called vertcial planking ) she can be spotted in and around Tokyo, equipped with her SLR and her self-timer. when she feels the moment strike, she presses the shutter button down and then, quite literally, "jumps" into place. 

i love that her shots don't feel forced, she really has a way of making you feel as though she naturally levitates throughout life

a big thanks to hobbsy for sharing this find with me, and not it's my turn to share it with you...

antique madness...must see

if you do not look up the following site, well...i'm afraid your simply insane

http://www.recreate.za.net/

these guys re-create unique furniture/storage pieces from all sorts antiques and second hand goodies

the best reason to buy second hand, you will be left pondering while sitting on your re-created suitcase chair, 'what sort of travels has this suitcase been on? was it carrying beautiful parisian lingerie around the world for a model of the 20's?, or was it carrying illegal drugs across a border in the 60's?'

though you may never know the history behind the piece, one things certain. you will be sitting on a one of a kind beauty that will be the envy of all of your friends...

*mark this moment*

i have now officially died and gone to furniture heaven

i'll see you in the afterlife

grug wannabe...

i came to the realisation today whilst walking through a book store, that my hair somewhat resembles 'GRUG'. though it is a much more modern take ( that's what i keep telling myself ), i couldn't resist buying a $4 book 'Grug and his imaginary friend' and sharing my new-found twin likeness with everyone

today-grug goes to roller derby, ever read that one?

adios

chloe svegney, need i say more...

pantone chip cookies...

a friend put me onto this cute website where these pantone chip cookies were featured. a US based designer decided to win over her clients in a new and inventive way   

design+food+novelty= more clients+unexpected exposure

she made them from scratch and mixed and matched the colours herself! they caused such a ruckus, that she was invited to an exhibition in NY to showcase her colourful designs...

as my dad would say...'have you thought about joining an anger management group?'

yesterday was a day where i literally had to stop myself from punching someone in the face..it would be shallow of me to name names, but my list is very rapidly getting bigger and bigger. time for a life change i think

maybe my dad was right after all

 deep breath, count to three

happy friday

a sock of a different colour...

a new trend? a daggy phase?? who knows, but i'm absolutely in love with these woven socks. unfortunately i can't tell you where to buy them, but i know they are most definitely socks and not leggings! though that may bring me a little closer to finding them...

hmmmm

violated with stylish boots...

my butt was violated today...no, despite my nickname being shAnal, not in the way you may think. a woman in the street kicked me from behind. and dang, she was wearing some bangin' boots! she mistook me for a friend of hers (a very stylish one i might add). when i turned around, the look on her face brought me more joy than eating pistachio macaroons...

she felt horrible, and wanted to make it up to me, so she offered to buy me a coffee. i took her up on her offer and as we walked towards the nearest coffee shop together, i kicked her back. we laughed like little school girls flashing little school boys, enjoyed a coffee and said our goodbyes.

floating away from my troubles...

some days, i just wish i could float away, away from all of the day to day dramas and issues...to a place where my mind is clear. just looking at this image helps me get closer to where i want to be, and it reminds me of an old fav movie 'the craft' ;-)

'well-worn' dunlop volley search...

the good ol' dunlop volley dates back to 1939. the dunlop team have embarked on a unique search for the best 'well-worn' volleys. in their words they were looking for volleys 'loved to death', they were looking for rare styles that had been lost and forgotten.

check out some of the top submissions on their website gallery.. 

if only converse jumped on board soon, i think i may be in with a chance...
