Behold the new things that have come my way. First – and I know I’m so late to the party with this – pill bottles. My godmother – Big D – is having her bathroom redone, and so these little bottles she’s collected over the years are on their way out… and over to my house.

I love the two doors in my house which have glass above them. This one, the front door, has just been waiting for some green and brown bottles to go on it and allow light to pass through them pleasingly. The one on the far left has a label saying ‘Vinyl Ether: Not for use after Oct 1961.’

And this, a birthday present from my wallpaper buddy. Isn’t it beautiful. And as she pointed out to me, the stamp on the bottom says, simply ‘FOREIGN’.
