Oct from Juliana - Mid-life bag

 


This one, from Juliana, is delightful. I like the way the scull is hovering in the background and the clouds are hovering in the foreground. Very nice effect. The details are so good. I'm going to put this in the steal worthy category even though it seems unlikely that I will ever have the time to devote to something like this.

Yesterday was my daughter's birthday. Nov 27th was on Thanksgiving day in 1980, so, no matter what the date is, on Thanksgiving, I always feel like observing her birthday. 

Remember those very clever stamps I posted yesterday? I followed a link to the designer and found that the company is still turning out very clever stuff. Since my daughter is 44, I thought the bag on the left  would have been an ideal gift for her. I wonder what kind of person would want the one on the right.


This is the flip side of the green bag. 

There are many clever and well designed items at the website if you feel like surfing. 
The name of the company is Dorothy - and they had this to say about themselves:

Spoiler! No-one who works at Dorothy is called Dorothy. <snip>

Prior to setting up Dorothy we worked in an ad agency together before taking a leap of faith to see if we could make money out of our own ideas. We started selling our own designs in 2010 and quickly realised that this crazy notion might not be so crazy after all.
