music...illustrated

a couple of my favourite music clips of the year that just happen to feature awesome artists and, though it isn't illustrated, i think this one will also make you smile:

fantastic mr. fox

heralded as one of the movies of the year (or next year if you're living in oz like me) fantastic mr. fox by wes aderson is probably a must see. i know that i can't wait for its release, evident as i appear to have foxes on the brain:

cross stitch fox badge

lucky day - aquamarine gemstone (14k gold filled)

Grey Poupon Fox

Fox on Sunday

Vintage Fox Pendant Necklace

currently i'm working on some special things to share- with studies over for another year this is a good cramming time to get organised for the next!

feeling folk stylings at the moment...

maybe its the heat, maybe its the gardens in full bloom, but waist-length hair and a beat-up guitar case are so appealing right now. exams are coming up, meaning heads down full-on study mode, but after spotting these folksy bags at katie henry likes to sew the other day, well, i just couldn't help but share:

(made by hank etsy shop)

oh, and i know this may not be folk related, but how cute is this not your granny's bunting no. 3 from wunderlust?

and this embroidered geometry art necklace from spinthread?
