Dreamcats is my best-loved thing on the internet right now. A magical collection of soft-focus kitties, it’s twee as fuck and I love it.

Some favourites…

I carry your heart

Jason and I probably won’t be exchanging rings when we get married, but wouldn’t it wonderful if we each made something a little like this and exchanged them in the ceremony instead? Afterwards we could keep them in a beautiful box together, or on the wall in a vintage frame.

Oh ! Apparently I’m not the first person to think of this, as I just found this picture too.

All by the amazing Lyndie Dourthe.

And while I’m being gross and sentimental…

Via Le Love.

Kitten Envy

Serious kitten envy! Aargh! Need to move and/or decide what country to live in so I can settle down and get me some cat babies, preferably with racoon tails and curly-furred tums.

Back to my hangover now. Hope your weekend was as good as mine!

Via Code For Something

2. Kathryn Bentley Jewellery

Via Grow Fonder

3. Ann Wood makes wonderful things.

4. Ruby lookbook. I don’t care about models but I like Zippora and I want that hair.

5. Through my new blogcrush Commas and Clauses (now I am nervous about putting commas places) I found Linus In Hats and it made me so glad.

Lots of cats & a little tape

Oh hi! It’s just me, Drunkface McKittenshirt, hanging out at the end of the night of my 26th birthday. Wow, I always forget how much I actually dislike birthdays until about the day before, it’s ridiculous. But I did have a really great day aside from the minor tantrums. Cupcake for breakfast, new skirt, lunch at Duke Carvells (so good), afternoon naps, bad tv and a southern bbq-style feast pot luck. Not bad for a tuesday! I was about to say that for my next birthday I’ll be either hermiting or throwing a crazy dress up party but I realised we’re intending to be road-tripping across America this time next year. Fingers crossed.

P.S. Do you like my crazy-ass tacky painting? Best thing ever. My flatmates all hate it.

Oh wait there’s more I must show! I think you know what’s inside this pretty package:

Wait for it…

Colourful Japanese washi paper deco tape! Thanks Simmonne & Keir! My dreams have come true.

When I was in Auckland my friend Kelly gave me these great zines about recognisable neighbourhood cats around Wellington. Made by The Water Bear Appreciation Society, it’s available at Madame Fancy Pants & Juniper. I’m excited about submitting a few of my own favourites for the next zine. The world needs to know about Bubbles, Hieronymus & Mister Purrpants.

Picture gifted to me by the lovely artist I interned with, Bekah Carran.

Just thought I’d mention that blogspot is having technical problems with comments from non-blogspot people. Have been trying to comment on lots of people’s blogs but it won’t work – so annoying.

On a more positive note, today I’m grateful for..

1. Being back with my lovely boy.

2. Having such wonderful friends and family.

3. Spring, oh you are my favourite.

4. Cups of tea in my favourite pink and white striped mug.

5. Braids.

6. Awesome cat-themed zines (will post about soon).

7. Finding my perfect skirt when I thought it was sold out.

8. Coming home to clean sheets, a tidy room and even a clean bathroom (!).

9. White painted fingernails.

10. People reading and commenting on my silly blog – never thought that’d happen!
