Hanging Frames


[hayleygeorgephotog.blogspot.com]

A cute and alternative way to hang your photographs, from an old fence post. A random mix of frames would look best with this, rather than uniform frames. I'd also like to try this with ribbon.

Our Exquisite Corpse


AS A FAN OF DECORATIVE TAXIDERMY I LOVE 'OUR EXQUISITE CORPSE'. JUST A BIT MACABRE, BUT IN THEIR OWN ODD WAY, BEAUTIFUL. 

"Our Exquisite Corpse worked with the Huichol people of Mexico to create these beaded skulls. Each beautifully patterned and brightly coloured skull features intricate craftsmanship and are uniquely different from one another.
The Huichol people believe in the power of the Sun God, ancestor spirits and the four principle deities - Deer, Corn, Peyote and the Eagle. They live in the Sierra Madre Mountains of Western Mexico and habe a long history of creating beaded art. These unique beaded skulls are not only part of a limited collection, but remain a treasured piece of Huichol culture." (www.ln-cc.com)

Pin your memories

A great, easy way to brighten up a bare wall. Polaroids, scraps, articles, fabrics - you name it. I also love the photo frames on the floor, who needs nails?
