Kitsch and Curious: January 2012
http://kitschandcurious.blogspot.com/2012_01_01_archive.html
Saturday, 21 January 2012. Come Fly With Me. It's 1969 and Swinging London is buzzing about the glamorous jetset arrivals at Heathrow airport. Wait, who's this? Is it Liz Taylor and Richard Burton with their entourage? I love this photo, not least for my cape (which my mum sewed herself), but also for my mum rocking the sunglasses-and-fur-coat look. The coat was fake fur, and I inherited it when I went to art college. My wrinkly-kneed tights are rather less cool, though. That's me on our front lawn, but ...
Kitsch and Curious: March 2012
http://kitschandcurious.blogspot.com/2012_03_01_archive.html
Monday, 26 March 2012. A Very Vintage Weekend. Goodness me, I really love the Vintage Jumble. I had a stall there on Saturday, and it was lovely to meet up with all the other 'vintage ladies' and basically swap stuff! There are so many bargains to be found - most of the stuff I bought was 50p a go. How good is that? Quite unintentionally, I seem to have bought quite a lot of pink plastic things. I suppose it's inevitable, given my kitsch leanings. Yesterday, I found a nice dress that fitted me! The sunsh...
Kitsch and Curious: Hello? Is anybody still there?
http://kitschandcurious.blogspot.com/2015/05/hello-is-anybody-still-there.html
Sunday, 10 May 2015. Is anybody still there? Now, where was I? I just popped away from my blog for a minute, got distracted, and now it appears three years have gone by. How does that happen? I'm not really sure. I've posted occasional weirdness on the Kitsch and Curious Facebook. Page, and I have pinned like the very devil on Pinterest. But I just haven't really been in the mood to write much. A few finds I just couldn't resist. Has waxed and waned depending on how ruthless I was feeling. No, I'm not.
Kitsch and Curious: December 2011
http://kitschandcurious.blogspot.com/2011_12_01_archive.html
Thursday, 8 December 2011. As you can see, I went a little overboard buying old toys at the Vintage and Handmade Fair last Saturday (a wonderful day, as always). But look at those wonderful old packets! I also got some barmy kittens. And I got quite a few vintage kitschmas decorations too. When I was photographing them, a tragic scenario appeared. Snowbaby forgot to look both ways while he was crossing, and was knocked over by a a reckless reindeer. He was very nearly trampled underfoot! This blog is whe...
Kitsch and Curious: Who is Elsie? What is she?
http://kitschandcurious.blogspot.com/2015/07/who-is-elsie-what-is-she.html
Tuesday, 28 July 2015. I have just revived my Elsie Jones Etsy shop. With a batch of handmade felt brooches, above. (What do you think of them? I've decided to stick with my 'nom de plume' of Elsie, which as some of you know is not my real name. I'm actually Elaine, but Elaine Jones is a pretty common name and there is a rather good artist by that name, so when I set up a website for my art, I decided to call myself Elsie. I still have my Kitsch and Curious shop. I'm also loving the opportunity to use vi...

Curious Objects: July 2012
http://curiousobject.blogspot.com/2012_07_01_archive.html
Monday, 16 July 2012. This charming recipe leaflet from 1959 was designed to promote Baker's Angel Flake Coconut as a cake decorating ingredient. Basically, whatever you want the cake to resemble, you cover it in coconut flakes. This makes sense for a lion's mane, or a teddy's fur, but is less obvious for a reindeer, giraffe or fish. The cakes are ingeniously designed by cutting up a basic cake shape, and reassembling the pieces. Myrtle and Milton are nothing to do with Mickey and Minnie, of course.
Curious Objects: Indifferent Luck

Saturday, 1 September 2012. Click on image to see large size. 65279; If only Marina of Mayfair could have foretold for me that I wasn't going to be able to blog for a while. She's spot-on with my being 'Tired of Indifferent Luck'. Right at the moment, I'm concentrating on 'real' work, and my time is too short for blogging. Sigh.

Curious Objects: November 2011
http://curiousobject.blogspot.com/2011_11_01_archive.html
Wednesday, 30 November 2011. I pity the poor child who got given this Spock costume. Let's just gloss over the fact that it says 'Super Hero' on the packet, it's definitely meant to be Mr Spock. So you get a promisingly large box which contains a costume and mask. No, Mr Spock does not go around wearing a picture of himself on a bright yellow plastic tabard affair. Nor does he wear cheap blue nylon trousers. Tuesday, 29 November 2011. Monday, 28 November 2011. OK, let's just do a pompom mascot roll call&...
Curious Objects: December 2011
http://curiousobject.blogspot.com/2011_12_01_archive.html
Saturday, 31 December 2011. Random Victorian Greetings of the Season. I don't know much about Victorian greeting cards, but some of the ones I've collected seem to indicate that the Victorians were much less conventional than one might think. Let's look at a couple of Christmas cards from my collection. The one above shows lush tropical greenery and a pink parrot, the one below has roses and a butterfly. Not exactly traditional English Christmas scenes. Or are they meant to be dancing rowdily? This last ...
Curious Objects: Smoking Monkeys
http://curiousobject.blogspot.com/2012/07/smoking-monkeys.html
Tuesday, 10 July 2012. Back in the 1980s, when I was an art student, I used to love going into joke shops. They had such wonderful stuff, often in very old-fashioned packaging. It was brilliant when I was able to get a card like this, that the novelties were attached to. Just look at that packaging, with the monkeys in all their different poses, but all with fags hanging out of their mouths. And did they have health insurance? Were you never tempted to open the packet and see the monkey smoke?

Curious Objects: March 2012
http://curiousobject.blogspot.com/2012_03_01_archive.html
Friday, 30 March 2012. Friday Postcards - Signs of Spring. I thought this week's postcards should reflect the feeling of Spring that we're enjoying here in Britain at the moment. Of course, in Dollyland, it's Spring all the time. The sky is always blue, the grass is green and sprinkled with flowers, and animals are always young and cute. Thought I would just share the message of sisterly love on the back of one of the cards, written in a child's hand-. Thursday, 29 March 2012. A lovely lace dress? But I ...
Curious Objects: April 2012
http://curiousobject.blogspot.com/2012_04_01_archive.html
Monday, 30 April 2012. Serious with Confidentiality and Quick. This little flyer came through the door of our previous house, about 6 years ago. Why did I keep it? Well, not because I thought I might use the services of Mr Dal, that's for sure. I certainly admired his enterprise - most of the flyers we received were for plumbers or builders, and I can see people might not think this was an appropriately spiritual marketing method. But Mr Dal scoffs at such naysayers. Friday, 27 April 2012. The thing that...

Thursday, 7 April 2016. Button Trees - They're back! Exactly 6 years ago to the day, I posted this photo in this blog. Of the button tree I'd made. Much to my surprise, that photo got pinned and repinned many times on Pinterest and elsewhere. At one time, if you searched Google images for 'button tree' it came in about 3rd. Now it's slipped a long way down the page, and its heyday seems to be over. There were a few copies, but nicely credited ones, which I'll call 'tribute acts', here. Just as a footnote...

Saturday, May 1, 2010. I just don't have anything to say right now. Friday, January 1, 2010. To begin, I will not attempt to plan the whole year at once. I will focus on one month at a time, with the plans being made on the first of each month. Here is the plan for de-cluttering my home, my health, my spirituality and my sanity for January. Kitchen, one drawer and one cabinet at a time, starting today, January 1, 2010. I will walk a minimum of 10 miles per week. I will start now. Sunday, December 27, 2009.
