lists- songs that make me cry

Because sometimes having a little cry feels so good.

in no particular order

1- Goldfrapp - A&E

2- The Beatles - Blackbird

3- Joni Mitchell - River

4 - Elliott Smith - Angeles

5 - ABBA - Slipping through my fingers. 

 

 I don't think these songs are depressing (I left those ones off the list because, well, they were just too depressing), I just think they are sweetly, sadly, beautiful. Sob.

 Having a good old sing-a-long to one of these songs when you're in the mood can feel great. 

 Have you got any to add?

 

Zig Zag

My new Zig Zag print! I'm very happy with how it turned out. It took me a while to get the perfect shade of grey but I think I nailed it. It's a slightly washed out shade but still dark enough to have some impact. Love it in the white frame! It's up on Etsy as we speak. Perhaps I could produce it in some other colours? Any suggestions?

painting for a little girl

 It's not finished yet but I've been working on a little piece for Edie's room. She's seen it and she's very excited! I love having such her as my little cheerleader. As long as she loves it I'm happy.

5 on the weekend

We painted our faces with black kohl and meowed and grrred about the house.

We hung a new light-shade. And it looks just fine and dandy.

We went to the theatre to watch this and cried along with almost everyone else in the audience. Such an utterly amazing play.

I painted a little. For Edie.

 We made our home that much more homely with a ton of sorting, a little tinkering and a lot of love and attention. 

Hope your week is turning into a good one too. X
 

new drawings

 I've been experiment with my paper, my pen and my MacBook Pro and I'm pretty happy with the results. Pretty patterns!
