Snoop my stuff…

March 2, 2011 25 Comments by Kirsty

Lot’s of stuff for you to poke through here. I wonder what it reveals about me & the crew? Plenty I guess.

If you want to play iSpy you can take a closer look at the pic here.

General observations…

i like red
i like junk
i like coffee
i make stuff

but you knew all that already!

Further observations…

jamie oliver is where it’s at “whack that in, toss that, bang that there”… i love his attitude
my kids are growing up … quite a few books on that & how to parent
I’m not just about the look … much of the stuff on these shelves is in daily use.
i’m lazy … the date on the apple calendar is Mon 10 APR OCT.
i’m into nostalgia.
i like grey lead pencil.
the dog’s on sentinel.
ikea for inspiration!

There’s probably heaps more you can read into this if you can be bothered.

Are you keen for us to snoop your stuff? Pop in & add your link if you’ve got a pic to share.


PS: Does anyone know why these pic links are so small? MOST annoying.

    You have a sun jar, I love those. And also an owl pencil holder/mug, which caught my eye from the first glance.
    How cool!

    Red is where it’s at & you’ve just reminded me I have a view-master like that… somewhere…

    Junky? Maybe.
    But it all works so well. So much delicious red! So many little snippets to peak the imagination.
    A great space Kirsty!!

    Lovely! What a cool little place to snoop around. Unfortunately I forgot to take a pic yesterday and now it’s dark and gloomy at my place. I had a stab anyway! Thanks for hosting this.

    What a great pic – and i do love a good snoop! Love the red vintage apple toy and the apple repetition and i love the pull down desk – such a great idea. Nothing from me unfortunately as our shelves have been dismantled and boxed up for our renovation.
    Will this be a weekly event?

    Loving the random fabulousness… you have some great objects and they come together so well! My kind of bookcase. Thanks for giving us all an opportunity to snoop and to be snooped on!

    For someone who likes ‘junk’ it’s all very neat and orderly to me! My junk just looks … like junk really! Would love to play along but might need to style it up a bit first.

    Great idea – I love the desk flap on your shelves, I think I may have to look into that, getting bored of using my laptop in the kitchen all the time! Thanks for sharing!

    Yay, love open shelving units which reveal all. I am about to fill a 25 pigeon hole shelving unit in my studio, it’s a freebie from Shop Handmade but LIFE altering, will save for next week’s post (it’s currently in the garage with motor oil on top. Love Posie

    I liked looking through your books and seeing which we had in common. I like your glass bottle collection. And I can see by your fingers that you’re part smurf.
    I echo Kate’s question – will this be a weekly thing? It’s a really cool idea.
    And as for your image links question..I’m no expert and I haven’t used that linking thing before but I’d say the thumbnail size is written into the code. Does it give you an option on what size to have the thumbnails?

    You are just unique in every way. And I’m impressed for admitting who you are without the fear of being judged by others. By the way, I find your blog so influential and this eco-friendly fashion might interest you in inspiring others to be eco-conscious. Thanks a lot!

    Ooh, like that little slide openy sewing basket thingy. Does that piano belong to Tom Cruise?

    I definitely relate to the liking of junk and red. I just wish my junk looked as organised as yours.
