I've been hunting for patterned sheets for a few years now and they just don't seem to 'do' them here in England.  I still wish I had bought the ones I found in New York a couple years ago b...

It's that time of year again.  The time where I want to watch all the episodes of Gidget back to back or at least have it on in the background while I get on with other stuff.  It's so ...

Living in England makes tiki collecting difficult (and even more expensive) but I guess that's part of the fun.  I thought I'd post about some mugs I would like to have in my (admittedly sma...

Original 1952 caption reads: "As Jernquist puts a finishing touch on one of the last dots, his neighbors (foreground) gaze in wonder at his multicolored home" Now THAT takes commitment! I saw thi...

While casually browsing Pinterest, I found a picture which made me 'laugh out loud' literally. I don't really know what to say except that look on the kid's face is priceless! I clicked through a...

I see the Billy bookcase from ikea is now available with an orange backing... I like this a lot.

I'm still being slack at posting.  Sorry to anyone who misses me.  I guess I just have so much on my plate at the moment. Well, actually, in reality I have less on my plate because I've...

I am big into genealogy.  It ties in with my love for history. I'm not so much one for collecting names - I'm more into finding out about how people lived. Researching how my ancestors lived...

I miss my little blog and am determined to devote some attention to it. Until then... Have a very TIKI Christmas!

As a big Tintin fan in my youth, I was overjoyed to see this familiar rocket adorning the front page of spotify. Tintin fans should recognise it but those unfamiliar with the graphic novels shoul...

Further to my Tea for Two post yesterday, I want a really cool teapot to go with my really cool tea infuser.  I have a couple vintage coffee pots but they're not quite what I'm after.  ...

I have been a bad, bad blogger... *hangs head in shame* So to get back in the swing of things I'm just gonna try to post stuff, even if it seems really random. For instance, I was in a tea shop t...

How adorable is this chair?  The jade green cushion is perfect for me and it would match my planters (which you can see in my home a couple of posts ago).  If only I had the space ...

I've been eyeing this little beauty off for a while - an octopus to hold all your shower time bits and bobs! At the moment my most used bottles (such as shampoo, conditioner, etc) sit on the bath...

I realise a Jubilee post is quite delayed at this point but I was thinking that I've been in my new flat for nearly a year now and I still haven't posted those pics I promised.   Every time ...

I came across these pics a while ago (via Miss Moss). Photographer, Arthur Shatz, took his camera to a high school in 1969 and now we are able to marvel at the time capsule images.  The phot...

I''ve never seen an episode of 'That Girl' but I'm still aware of its existence, largely due to countless references in other programs.  For a while now, I was on the lookout for cool paper ...

I was so sad to hear the news of Davy's death this morning. I had just pulled out of the driveway on the way to work - what a crappy way to start the day. Readers of my blog would be aware of my ...

I meant to blog about this fab little pad ages ago.  It was pinned to pinterest which led me to the tuovinen.net site which held the original 1971 brochure!  Designed in Finland as...
