We holidayed! (Stuff we bought)

We loved The Aviary.  All our holiday shopping happened there!  There wasn't a lot of it, but it was cheerful stuff.

Both of these are for Antonia - the print is by birdinabunnysuit, and the bear is a ceramic money box, because her original money box is full and it needs to be smashed to get the coins out.  The bear is a very cool replacement so hopefully she'll forgive us when piggy meets his maker, as it were. 


This duck egg blue and natural wool and cotton rug, because it was right there on sale just as we were talking (again) about ripping up the lounge carpet and putting down rugs instead.  And then the store offered us another 20% off the sale price.  We were powerless, I tell you.


This house shaped toast-rack-for-paper-stuff.  Or possibly a magazine rack.  Either way, it's doing the business on my desk, right now and it's an interesting way to organise my paper-based life.


It was a toss-up between an off-centre shot or one that was on an angle.  I decided that off-centre was less terrible.  I should really have taken a third photo that was neither off-centre nor on an angle, but ... lazy.


And that was it!  Aside from food and coffee, which doesn't count as both are necessities of life, that was all the shopping that happened!  (I am a new woman, determined to pay off my Mastercard, once and for all)
