Eclectic

The little girl in me still loves statues of animals (mostly dangerously on the edge of kitsch). My eyes for detail love the look of flowers on old crockery, preferably those very detailed ones like the one on the teapot above. I love colors, but I couldn’t live in a home with walls painted in every color of the rainbow, but I do love those bold and simple patterns from the 60s and 70s. I’m so very glad they invented that wonderful name ‘eclectic’ to cover my love for a hotchpotch of design!

Today I’ve been playing with my camera again. I love how those detailed patterns on old crockery come out even more beautiful when you photograph them from closeby. How the light reflects. And how on the picture the left side of this teapot almost becomes invisible with that bright Summer light.

I often feel that my blog is one big adverse mess of non-connected pictures of a lot of old stuff. But now I think about it, it is just really who I am. Eclectic! But would you please excuse me now, I have to go and stare at some detailed patterns and my animal statues are screaming for attention. So long!
