If you love illustration and short films or movies, then you MUST take a look at a group known as the Blackheart Gang. The above image is a still of their short film titled "The Tale of How" and in my opinion is a real must see. Learn more about them and take a look at their latest work on their website - www.theblackheargang.com

There is no better feeling than setting off on a day of "antique exploring" and finding something beautiful. I found this little gem in Long Street Cape Town, at the Antique Arcade and bought it for a mere 50c! People used to bye this to thread/string pearls way back before we could buy sliced bread! The design is just gorgeous & I LOVE IT! It is amazing what things may inspire a person and by looking at this I must say, I feel inspired!

And so it began...

With the start of a new year and a mind full of plans I start this journey of experience. What lies ahead is unknown, scary and yet strangely exciting! I challenge anyone reading this to do something out of the ordinary this year, to be less of a control freak and a planner and to enjoy the simple things that cross your path. Take note of the happy, pretty things in life and never let them pass bye unnoticed! Just take your shoes off and walking on the grass (Smile)

I will try my utmost to keep my blog up-to-date and hopefully it might just become somewhere to go when you're needing some inspiration or just wanting to spend some time looking through stuff!
