A hobby of mine, decorating plain Jane boxes....

Shame I went into these projects without my dear blog in mind... Shoulda taken pics of the "befores" - fuggly boxes transformed into swans of beauty...

But since this is "mah" bloggie, I can do whatever I want (and probably I am the only reader anyway... ;-)

Here they are...


I think this one came up quite nicely: some beautiful collages I found on Etsy and turned a quite drab oval box into an explosion of beauty (if I may say so...)





And this one I covered with copies (of course I would NEVER cut up an original nineteenth century magazine) of La Mode Illustree...




And here they are, my latest projects side by side... Cute, huh?



Things I have and love.... a lacy top


From the front, cute, but nothing much...


But wait - some fun the back!!!


I daresay that I will try using this top backwards just fo' fun!!! Stay tuned for pictures....

What NOT to buy or...you decide

Well, if you have been reading my blog (one of the few people besides my parents), you probably know that I loooove shopping and show some bargains, etc, etc.

However, today I decided to create a section that deals with things that I would NEVER ever buy...

Such as this gem from Etsy:


Roach plates???? Really? Are you supposed to eat out of these???? Gross!!!
See the listing here...
And buy if you dare...

Hmm, on the other hand, maybe I SHOULD get these. It would help me a lot in succeeding on my failed diet...
You take a look at food on top of this and your appetite is gone... GENIUS!!!

I will include more crap that you should or should NOT buy soon. Promise.

Bye bye...
