Since I decided to make a 'map bag' I have seen maps everywhere!You can find this one in my shop. It all started when I went into a quaint secondhand book shop here in Hermanus and found an old atlas. I couldn't resist and bought it and then came up with the idea of a map on a bag. Now everywhere I look I seem to see maps. These are a few I have found on other blog sites.
These are the most stunning tiles from style files. I would love to have these in my bathroom so instead of reading my book in the bath, I could travel the world!
What fun to find your blog! I know the bookshop you are talking about - I spent ages there earlier this year when I was visiting my mum who now lives in Napier! We spent many holidays in Hermanus when we were young - it's very different nowadays!
I am a textile designer,beader and crafter. I live in the beautiful seaside villiage of Hermanus with my husband, two boys(who are both working away from home now) and a ginger cat. I love creating things and have always worked with beads,fabrics,design, colours and yarns. My 'proper" job is working as a Literacy & Numeracy facilitator for a local NGO.It is also creative, but in a completely diferent way and most rewarding.
