I just lost half an hour of my life perusing this lovely blog by San Fransisco artist / illustrator Lisa Congdon. She photographs, draws and sometimes paints a collection a day, mostly of stuff you immediately wish was on a shelf or wall in your own house (just me?). Unlike the photographed items, which belong to her, the drawn ones are imagined, which strikes me as a particularly good form of therapy for shopping addicts. If only I could draw.

Lisa started the project in January this year and intends to end it on 31 December. Knowing what a bunch of big voyeurs we are, she’s even included links to a tour of her amazing house and studio. Both full of those collections and enough to make you ball your fists with envy (just me?).
