It's Alice In Wonderland...

Like a billion girls on the planet...I loved Alice in Wonderland...and I love the
Sir John Tenniel illustrations that we most identify with the story...oh sure...Disney wrecked it tho it is a charming movie...it's old school Disney.......
No.
The real Alice is Tenniel......like this:




But I saw theeeeeese the other day....and wow.

Imagine my delight ! when I found this dress last year....in a thrift of course. It's a 90s babydoll....just barely vintage in about 5 more minutes......covered with Sir John Tenniel illustrations !!! oh yes.
I'll be wearing this in Portland this weekend...





I found this ...thing...what is it? a tablecloth? an antimacassar? I don't know...
It's a Hitatchi thingie....(its also says Castle)
I adore the illustrations, the secondary gothy colors, the whole mid 60s pop art take on Art Nouveau...
it's pen and ink line drawings like the Sir John Tenniel drawings.....with those lovely colors.....
it's just a length of white cotton with fringe at either end....




It's just big enough to make a bit of a skirt
...add some white lace and other gothy White Queen stuff.......



Gee, I do believe I have my whole Fall theme all lined up......
stay tuned funkoma fans and etsy shop buyers.......
I think it might be Alice I want.... is a Wonderland....kind of season...

When I say No Budget and Found...I meant it!

Now this is the kind of stuff that intrigues me...a sweet and lovely idea of a bed made with discarded pallets...oh do I know of pallets! A house I lived in in Steilacoom just before I opened the deli was made of pallets and Army ammo boxes. It was weird and stumpy.
From Design*Sponge comes this Before & After by Ashley Campbell of ashley ann photography. And a door headboard too. The simple white works well with the light wood and the punch of pretty colors. I especially love the coasters..Imagine the fun a child could have with this! Practical, hard to wreck and mobile too!

The Only MJ vid I will post because it has Angelica Huston who is perfect.

this has little to do with Tacoma, but I live here and I like this....Enjoy!!
