Saturday Shopping- Abigail Ahern and a Giant Thank You to Desire to Inspire


If your thinking about the portraits I showed you earlier but not entirely sold on their spooky embrace, may I suggest a rainbow bright alternative; these are done by the exquisitely quirky Abigail Ahern.


I've read that her collection is like a trip through Alice in Wonderland- an eccentric picture book, where each piece tells a brilliantly off kilter story.








Have a gander at Abigail's design work; totally the stuff fairytales are made of- at least in my wonderland.







As far as this story is concerned, I give Abigail an enthusastic thumbs up.

On a personal note, I was thrilled beyond thrilled to wake up and find my header on Desire to Inspire's reading list.  I die a thousand deaths of excitement and am honoured to be in such great company- sounds like a cheese sandwich but so true.  Thank you, thank you.

Happy Hallow's Eve!
