I made a bunny!
A while back I bought a baggy of bear's eyes at my favourite second hand shop, Matchbox. Having never made anything resembling a bear or plush toy before, I held back on using my bear's eyes. So two weeks ago I won a bunny necklace(which I'm still waiting for) and now all I see are bunnies! Last week I had an idea hop into my head and by Thursday Bunny was made!

Fase #1: Done
David and my dad, hard at work. My dad made the pickets with recycled wood. It took quite some time as he made them one by one and then put them all together. Then began the hard work of putting them up. And not even to mention the paint work! David and I made turns painting the different coats, we still need to do one more coat on the pickets around the tree and then that's done!
Oh, it looks so yummy...and edible!
Dogboxstudio has proven to be more popular as a mobile studio (which is understandable in the photography of pets). That is why we have come to the decision to convert the studio into a little shop:)

Just a little taste of what lies ahead...
Everyone keeps asking me "so, have you open that shop yet?" well just about... David and I are opening a small shop in Hermanus. It will be an Art, Design, Gift shop. Our aim is to get local suppliers, artists from South Africa and mainly from our surrounding area. I put this collage together of images I collected from all over the Net. This is my inspiration for the atmosphere and decor of our shop.
more will be revealed soon...
Please forgive me if I cannot remember where I got the images, as I went through a lot of them. The only image I do know, is the top middle one which is from Cupcake Couture.

Look what I scored! Yay!
I was visiting my friend, Irma, at her little second hand shop called Matchbox. As we were chatting my eyes were scanning the shop for something that would jump out at me, but nothing did. So as she got busy, I took a more thorough look around. And under a heap of old handbags I found my little Leather bag's soul mate! The handbag, I had bought from a second hand shop a few years back. I can't even remember where that was.
It was just waiting for me to come and take it home:)
