..through the keyhole.....


...this week i had a playdate with my crafty partner in crime
...now i don't know about you
but i love a good ol' nosey around other people's houses...
....especially ones that are as inspiring and colourful
and original as daisy's
....around every corner
is something to admire...
....a quirky object..
...a vintage delight...
...an amazing collection...
..and her array of crafting inspirational books
is second to none...
...but what really took my breath away..
(and stirred a little green eyed monster within)
....was her creative space...
....i just had to share it with you....

..for starters just look at her lovely stash....
.....such amazing storage....
(with a vintage laura ashley prairie dress
thrown in for aesthetic good measure!)


***sigh***


...a certain type of girl could go crazy in here....
so much to see....
and love.....
and inspire....
....and...well.....
WANT!!!!!

oops....i just so happened to find this little cutie
sitting quietly in a corner....

.
....i'm afraid my unbridled joy in her discovery
led to this little lady coming home with me!

....not exactly 'stolen'....
...shall we say 'passionately adopted with kind permission!!?'
(thank you so much- i LOVE her!)
he he!

....there were quite a few little beauties 
i could happily have snaffled...
....look at this little basket of wooden people....
....the squirrel fell in love with these too of course!
....oh and this lovely doll is made by the talented
'the cat in the shoe'
....such a fabulous and creative space.....
....you see she really can't be a 'lazy' daisy after all !

..secret love...

in a special little cupboard
at the top of my stairs..
..hides a squirrel secret
that now i'd like to share..
...it looks like any other..
but when you peek inside...
...a hoard of tiny teddies 
have chosen to reside...
..i'm not sure how they got there
or how it came to be...
that all these little teddies
have ended up with me...
they are so good and tucked away
i can forget they're there...
..but if i pass i peek inside...
and tell them i still care.
