Go have a look!

Holiday Mantel...

Lo and behold, I got some Christmas decorating done! I conquered my mantel, which can sometimes be a challenge with  its large scale/depth, and I hung my holiday "subway" sign, a gift from Matthew Mead for my holiday photo shoot. You can order one like it (it also comes in red) here on his website. I also picked up some glittery stags to flank it on the wall. 


Who knew I'd ever have a deer's head on the wall? Hah!

Happy decorating! 
I am off to do more and will be back to share it all soon!

A Vintage Winter Wonderland!

With the weather turning much colder this week, and the promise of snow, there was never a better time to cosy up indoors and gaze out upon a wintry landscape; just like the charming pussy cat above. There are plenty of good reasons to stay indoors too, because we have just updated the Vintage Home online shop with a veritable array of vintage treasures. Here is a selection of some of those lovelies which are gracing the shelves of the shop right now - there is something for everyone!

A pretty 1940s watercolour...

A stunning Victorian table adorned with handpainted flower baskets...

Eye-catching fabrics...

Exquisite roses handpainted onto satin...

A 1940s chandelier...

Step into this very special garden...

The prettiest fabric covered storage...

A beautiful lady - star of the silver screen perhaps?

There are many, many more delights in the shop and plenty more to come leading up to Christmas!

To get us all nicely into the festive spirit we our launching Christmas Prize Draw today. Three lucky people will each win a luxurious, seasonal box of scrumptious chocolates from 'Hotel Chocolat' the prestigious purveyor of very fine chocolate.

The chocolates are filled with mouthwatering tastes such as cinnamon praline and mulled wine; yum, simply divine! Visit the website to find out how to enter.

We'll be back soon with the prize draw results - in the meantime, stay warm and cosy!Source URL: https://celebrity-tattoo-show.blogspot.com/2010/11/

It only took me 13 days to get it!

The darkness ... The darkness ...


Even though the town's been plunged in the dark like a canary no one wants to hear, from 3 in the afternoon till 10 in the morning, the lights have been on and bright pretty regularly down at the HQ for the last 2 weeks! Eckel and I, freshly back from our very own British adventures and busy as ever (well me more, he hardly does anything actually)! Someone's gotta work around here! Not everyone can take a never ending, nose picking and ceilings staring Japan-acation!!! Shop's got to keep going, ya know!? Work work work! We've had to do lots and lots of overtime lately (directly because of the above described missing staff situation) so I've decided to share the extra hours evenly! Eckel's taking the 1st shift (8 to 5) I'll be taking the second (5 to 8) just so it's fair! No one likes to be the boss but someone's got to do it anyway! I've also decided that until the missing staff are back everyone visiting the shop will have to:

A): Start and/or resume smoking.

B): Love doom stoner metal.

C): Have a minimum of 3 double espressos per visit.

D): Bring us gifts (expensive ones would be best)

E): Be ready to convincingly explain, in detail, their perfect plan of exactly what they would do (step by step) in the tragic case of a zombie invasion!

That will be all for now but please check back regularly for new updated rules and regulations of the Conspiracy inc. in the days to come!
-Because without rules ... There is chaos!



Here are the more general free tips of the week...


Spontaneous visits: Go towards the right, towards the light!

Weather report: It's gonna get much worst before it gets better!

Health report: Being vegan does not make you immune to Ebola!

Health report 2: Eating meat doesn't either!

Awesome report: Yes it's true!

Forty Years Later...

Yes, it's true. I am forty today.
I should feel different, but I don't.
Forty sounds different, though.
I know it sounds totally over the hill to people 25 and under.
But I wouldn't trade places with my 20 year old self.
That would mean university classes, being separated from my man (he graduated before me), and too many unknowns.
I would still have to go through pregnancy and childbirth.
I loved both, but I did it, and it was hard, and sweet.
I don't need to repeat either.
I see young mums with little babies and I want to stop them and tell them how lucky they are.
To not always look to the future, rushing milestones.
I want to tell them to cuddle their babies even more, to not worry about it being "too much."
Can you ever breathe in the scent of a baby too much? I miss that.
I would trade places with my 27 year old self, though. Because I miss my little boys.
I want desperately to go back and scoop them up.
Because teenage boys are a far stretch from little boyhood when they stand taller than you.
I want to go back when everyone believed in Santa, not just Sophie.
I want to drink in her innocence, as she is still very much a little girl.
I want to freeze time and make her always love playing with her "babies", happy to hold my hand, and believing in Santa.
I want to tell all of the parents who are "done" with Santa to stop debunking ALL of the happy myths surrounding him to their children. Who, in turn, work very hard to convince my child to not believe. 
I want to ask them to allow the rest of us to enjoy it, and enable our children to believe in magic for just one more year.


Is that too much to ask?


I am happy that I have learned that all that I want is not at all that I need.
That laughing with your husband over shared, inside jokes can make your day.
I marvel that I have become messier. That clutter all of a sudden means that my life is full.
That I no longer crave a "perfect" home, for that might mean it is empty, that my little birds have left the nest.
I love that I don't know all that lies ahead, but I feel better equipped to embrace it for what it is.
That I don't need to be surrounded by people to be content...that I can entertain myself.
For you can still, at times, feel all alone amongst a group of people, no matter how old you get.
I am okay that I will never conquer my curls and my freckles have merged into age spots.
I still dislike what I have always disliked about myself, but I like more things, too.
In essence, I am happier than my 20 year old self, and that is all I need to confirm that my forties are not going to be so bad.
Despite the cackling of my sister as she welcomes me into "the club."


The End



(Whew! I guess I had to mark the milestone somehow on my blog, right? 
And I am not having a big Fortieth celebration, That is not who I am at all. 
I can't think of anything more uncomfortable, actually!)

Then:




Now:






In a nutshell, being a good mum is all I ever truly wanted to be. 
Everything else is a bonus...!

Hello

My uncle just got this Tattoo and I was curious to know what it says. I'm hoping he didn't get tricked and got something ridiculous.

Similar tattoo with same mistake was posted here in July.

Saturday Projects...

 (this project can be found in HOLIDAY with Matthew Mead and is one of my favourite new decorations!)


It is a beautiful sunny Saturday which is perfect for:


Bringing in the remaining outdoor furniture, etc. for the winter
Tidying up the flower beds


Painting the Murphy bed (yes, I'm still working on it!)


and, my favourite project, making this garland for my tree:
