The Happy Rizzi House

I love searching the net for strange and unique buildings
I recently came across this building in Brunswick, Germany
It was designed by James Rizzi and built by architect Konrad Kloster
And it's called The Happy Rizzi House!
I know it's a bit over the top, but it's so cheery and bright
I bet it'd make you smile everytime you walked past it!






























































































If you know of any unique buildings, please leave me a link!
I'd love to know!

♥ Monday Etsy Loves ♥ La La Love You! ♥

So, tomorrow it's March
Seriously, wasn't it just Christmas?
I need to get a caffeine drip and work through my To Do list (I actually really love making lists!)
Last week when I went to Hampstead Heath it felt like Spring was upon us, now it's freeeezing!
What's going on?
I was starting to plan day trips and picnics!
Never mind
As a typical Brit, I'll probably start moaning when it gets hot!
Let's get on with this Mondays Etsy picks!
Hope you find something you like!

1. Q Works

This adorable little spool necklace is perfect for sewing lovers!

















2. Cindy Mars 7
This bag is perfect for Spring













3. Janet Hill Studio

4. Welcome To The Doghouse
I've posted before about Alexis' work before, it's so cute!
And this little one caught my eye!
And I really want those glasses!

















5. Wonderland Room
These would make organising much more fun!













6. Ugly Kitty
Little Quasi was adopted from Cool Cat's Rescue Center, a No-Kill adoption center
Now Quasi's owner raises money for the shelter through her Etsy shop!
Since Oct 2006 she's raised $3,000!
That's a lot of little kitties helped
I think little Quasi is a cutie!

















7. The Ringleader
These earrings are so detailed!








8. Dirdy Birdy
I've got a bit of a thing about wood jewelery lately
And these earrings are gorgeous!














9. Nina Friday

Straight away I bought one of her gorgeous prints!
Check out her work, it's dreamy!


















Well that's it for this week

Start of Spring on Hampstead Heath

Hi there!
Can you believe it's Friday?
I know, I always say it
But the week has flown by!
On Thursday, the weather was beautiful, so we headed to Hampstead Heath
By the time we got there it wasn't as sunny, but still pretty warm for February
It was lovely walking around, planning what we want to do this Spring and Summer
Spring has never really appealed to me much
I'm much more a Summer/Autumn girl
But after the dreary weather we've been having, I'm really loving Spring!














































































I love Snowdrops!
So pretty and dainty!







































Isn't this gorgeous?













See those two little pigeons in the photo below?
They were walking along in front of us for a while and sounded like they were having a bit of a heated debate
I thought they were a couple having a row, Paul thought I was over thinking!







































Check out that little guy with his funky hair-do!




























Just a little photo update!
I can't wait until Spring!
What's your favorite season?
