last week's market and another give away!

oxfam markets


well it is giveaway time on this blog! Lies is doing some this week, which I am sure you have all seen. Very generous, thanks Lies.

Just so you all have something to look at while you are holding your breath and waiting to win, here is another mosaic I made from photos I took at the Oxfam charity market. Loads of good stuff was sold.

Guessing game from last mosaic:
I asked who could guess the only interior space that was put together by a man (my brother) and NOBODY got it right! the unmade bed in fact belonged to melissa (her flickr here). And by the way I LOVE the unmade bed photo! Joel's room was the red living room, see it on his flickr here.

And just to let the good times roll, here we are back in the early 90s. That is me in the white and navy sailor dress, brotown joel is looking dapper in the blue collared shirt, and little miss Carling is the wee sailor in the red and blue number. Thanks mother for coordinating so perfectly that we have something to look back on and laugh at.


Okay now next mosaic question!
Of the oxfam charity market photos, which one pictures something/s made by my boss? For a little incentive; if anybody get this right there is a prize! You can win one of my fully lined tote bags (with pocket! oo la la). Pictured in the market mosaic.

and just in case there are masses of right guesses, I will award the first 2 who are correct.

Cheers!

ps. I am loving mosaics right now, can you tell?

Can I guess though I don't know you in real life? I'm guessing it's the adorable monsters in the top left.

Lovely pics, were you restrained or did you buy?

I'm going to guess the candle tea cups, because they are the thing I liked best :)

Given your last mosaic, by guessing the obvious I will set myself up as least likely to win....hehehe!

My pick is the illustrated cards.

I'd love to come to NZ to check out the Anemone goodies and your markets. Maybe a trip I could make with my frequent flyers one day.....sigh....

PS - Kimberlee, I hope you will be crafting some pinnies and dresses for the store whilst Lies is on maternity leave? Maybe if I can magic up a couple of extra hours a day for you??

Hi love! That market looked great! I will guess the home made jams/preserves since no one has guess that yet!

Kirsten said...

Oh my goodness just have to add that those sailor outfits are totally fantastic!!! I love all things nautical!! So great!

I have no idea but I have to say that the family pic is ADORABLE - I love those 80s and 90s portraits, so funny and touching and nice. (And you look like you're very mischievous in that photo) Also, the market wares from the various vendors do look rad.

My guess, the biscuits and lovely easter egg cupcakes. Only because I want to eat them right now!

Hello! I guess the candles, I love the family photo, I want a grownup-sized sailor dress and I guessed the right boy room but forgot to comment :)

hanna said...

I think it's great that your parents staged a 'time capsule' photo; we should all do it so our kids can have a little laugh later on :) My guess is the toy animal necklaces.

melissa said...

ha! that photo is so great- and reminds me a lot of similar ones of my family, circa the same time. love your dress- awesome!
i'm guessing the candles... maybe? they're beautiful.

I recon the little rabbits who look like they're in snow suits ...
but my favorite would have to be the candles in the tea cups, such a great idea!
Thanks for your blog, it's always interesting and beautiful.
