Planet Ruby Starrs

This weeks project included more market place finds... although I think Facebook market place has had its time - nowadays it seems to be full of rip off sofas and cheap nasty furniture sales and more and more 'underwear' sales which I haven't clicked on as I'm pretty sure they are special services sites.... I've had a few scam messages when I've had stuff on for sale so I'm steering clear mainly but every now and again I have a gander... So this time I was looking for, and found,one of those glass topped Ikea tables which you display stuff in.  Since we emptied our storage in Leeds we have got so much more stuff which needs a home - we have got rid of quite a lot but also we have discovered new treasures so I've been looking at inventive ways to give them a home.  As usual I forgot to do a decent before picture.... The coffee table I found was quite tatty and very white - but cheap and shouted ''buy me buy me I can be beautiful I'm a potentia...

I absolutely love the Natural History Museum... its crammed full of everything!  its art, nature, science, beauty, gore, history, past, present, future and everything all combined under one amazingly beautiful building  - always a joy to visit! I traveled to London with a fellow student and we did manage to see and do an awful lot of things  in the three days and two nights we had there.  We went to New Designers in the Business Centre Islington, The Royal Academy, -I went to Chelsea Harbour to look at Designers stuff, we took a boat ride down the Thames and saw Tower Bridge opening to let a big boat through.  And as an aside we  learnt that Waterloo Bridge was built entirely by women during the war!!! We had a curry on Brick Lane and on our last day we spent it at the Natural History Museum in my continued search for the right concept to concentrate on in my final year at  college. This concept is an issue for me - I really want to get it ...
