All the Frills: Curio Bowl

I picked up this awesome deer bowl in Scotland and, upon lugging it home, proceeded to fill it up with all manner of little sparkly things and other baubles and curios that I’ve amassed over the years and really have no where else to put. Replica coins from the reign of Henry VIII, little tiny portraits of Elizabeth I, an Anne Boleyn pill box, random bits of rhinestone jewellery, etc. Basically just the debris of my life. I sort of love it.

Weekend Reading:

• Want to test your knowledge on a small fraction of Greek mythology?
  
• The story of this gorilla raised by an English village is a little bonkers.
  
• The New York Times looks back on its marriage announcements – this is a great read.
  
• Hidden places are my favourite kind of places.
  
• This piece about being the boss, rather than the #girlboss, is wonderful, found over at Orchid Grey.
