Cool greenhouse/shed make from old plastic bottles
I saw this cool shed/greenhouse made from old plastic bottles up at the Tennantry Down Allotments. It's a nice idea - I wonder how good it is at keeping the rain out and the warmth in?

Today's charity shop bargain...
Unworn 80s Clarks shoes...just on the right side of the Granny-chic scale if you ask me.

I went to see Lost in Lace with my Mum today at Birmingham Museums and Art G,allery. It's a visually arresting and theatrical exhibition which takes lace and lacemaking as inspiration. These photos and the video are rubbish - you should just go and see it instead.

Look at the awesome coffee table my brother made...
This is what my brother gave my mum and dad for Christmas. It's made from beautiful oak beams and weighs a ton.
He makes and sells stuff like this to order if anyone wants one like this or something similar. (No, I don't get commission, but I am angling for a heavily discounted shoe rack!) He'll have his own fully content-strategised website next year too.

Neon boneyard: where neon signs go to die
Photos from the Neon Museum in Las Vegas.
The museum/boneyard is where a lot of the signs from the old casinos end up. I thought it was amazing - an atmospheric, evocative, rusty slice of Americana. Well worth visiting, especially if you have even a passing interest in design or typography.
