Stranger photos...

Just saw this from A CUP OF JO. It was inspired by this, where a these people left a disposable camera attached to a bench in Atlanta, and encouraged people to use up the film.



Here are some of the results...










There is also a Tokyo version...hee hee. Maybe i should try one in my local area?

Be my Valentine?

Saw this gorgeous card today on this Etsy site. It features one of my most favourite poems.






All of this Etsy seller's profits go directly towards an adoption fund for her sister and brother-in-law as they work towards adopting from Ethiopia and to AHOPE, an orphanage in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, that cares for HIV+ children. Beyond basic care, AHOPE provides a curriculum of music, art and dance lessons. Plus her name is Amy (which makes me instantly a fan)!



The husband and I will not be together tommorrow as I am working a twelve and a half hour shift. We will be doing something special on Sunday though (plans to be decided)! He has been spoiling me with gifts for the last couple of days. Wednesday i opened some chocolate plasters after an awful day at work (see them here).



Then today I opened a gorgeous photo frame. Check out the gorgeous wrapping...







Cuties









































Came across this on A Cup of Jo. Aren't they cute and just a bit funny. They are from a series of photographs by this photographer. See more about this series here.

He photographed 50 newborn babies in their first few hours, straight from the womb. Aren't they hilariously gorgeous.

Kisses





















The images above are just a few from a series by photographer Holly Wilmeth. She travelled across 5 continents and 18 countries in search of the perfect kiss. Inspired by a photo of a friend puckering up, she set out on a 3 month long journey, asking the people she met to blow a kiss into her camera lense.

Stunning jewels

Isn't this jewelery soooo beautiful...



They are also completely fairtrade. They are by Cred jewellery.

Vintage loveliness

Saw this shop advertised in a magazine to day, they sell lovely lovely things...















I'm gonna try and persuade the husband, to take me there just to have a browse around....bliss. The shop is called The French House

Love seat


Came across this seat when walking through Portobello, London in the summer...
Stumbled across it in one of my photo albums today and it made me smile, perfect for upcoming V day.

Excited...


Tonight we are going to see this, at the Lyceum theatre in London! Can't wait!

Just hope the snow holds off so we can get there ok!

Image found here.
