...do you ever get distracted
from the task in hand?
...well i do...
...all the time!
yesterday i woke with a mission...
i needed some fabric..
...i knew exactly where to go
(the dorchester curiosity centre - i've taken you there before)
but it was high risk...
...because there are so many lovely things...
...it can be very distracting
for a squirrel on a mission!
...so it comes as no surprise
that 'en route' to my fav fabric stall...
...i fell in love....
...with this amazing retro kitchen unit!
it was perfect...
in an 'orla kiely' kinda way
that made me just stand and sigh for a bit...
...after coming to terms with the fact
that i was there for fabric...
...and that my love would have to remain unrequited...
....i pootled on only to be confronted with this:
...yup another amazing retro kitchen unit...
this one was a lovely pale blue...
...just look at those compartments!!!!
(i also loved seeing fred there too)
having never particularly contemplated
a retro kitchen unit....
...suddenly there i was...
...finding beauties at every turn...
...and contemplating:
(a) how i needed one
(b) how marvellous it would be to have one
(c) what treasures it could hold
(d) how stunning it would look in my home
(e) where it could go
(f) how i could possibly afford one!????
..it was at this point i remembered....
what i was actually there for...
...and contented myself with this teeny basket
of treasures...
(which i was very pleased with indeed)
...and the fabric of course!
(phew i remembered)
does this ever happen to you?

p.s. do keep an eye on my etsy shop as i am adding new things all the time!
