We´re On The Road To Nowhere

admin | December 29, 2011

……….

One thing is certain in The Vintage Fairy Tales,

even if we´re on the road to nowhere,

this is the year we will be wearing fancy dresses and funny little hats.

HAPPY NEW YEAR,

and thank´s for all your lovely comments.

Much love/

Becky

……….

Paper character made by Julie Arkell.

I´m A Man Of Constant Sorrow, I´ve Seen Trouble All My Days

admin | August 7, 2011

“For six long years I’ve been in trouble
No pleasure here on Earth I found
For in this world I’m bound to ramble
I have no friends to help me now ” (traditional American folk song)

……….

No sorrows in The Vintage Fairy Tales.

The fact is that the fairy tale protagonist,

The Skating Monkey,

is happier than ever.

He will soon tell you why.

………..

The embellished clothing is an installation

made by artist Julie Arkell,

photographed at Les Soeurs Anglaises, France.

Have a GREAT week all of you and thank´s for visiting!

Love/

Becky

Do You Remember

……….

“Do you remember when we first met?
I sure do
It was some time
In early September
You were lazy about it
You made me wait around
I was so crazy about you
I didn’t mind
So I was late for class
I locked my bike to yours
It wasn’t hard to find
You painted flowers on
Guess that I was afraid
That if you rode away
You might not roll back
My direction real soon
Well I was crazy about you then
And now the craziest thing of all
Over 10 years have gone by
And you’re still mine
We’re locked in time
Let’s rewind “(lyrics Jack Johnson )

……….

Anniversary in The Vintage Fairy Tales,

and actually over twenty years have gone by.

……….

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

………

Happy Happy weekend to all of you,

I´m heading off to the cottage now!

……..

Paper characters are made by me inspired by Julie Arkell,

The Hairless Mexican And His Friend

admin | November 30, 2010

…………

……………

…………

………….

In The Vintage Fairy Tales we like being creative,

it´s a lifeblood.

“The Hairless Mexican and his friend” are new members of our fabulous community.

The Hairless Mexican actually resembles my father,

although he is neither hairless or mexican.

(The secret is, THE MUSTACHE !!!)

…………..

The papier maché characters are made by me, with inspiration from Julie Arkell.

The “Pigfly” is now living with my dear friend and pen pal Helen in Yorkshire!

Love to all of you, new and old visitors!/

Becky

You Can Wag Your Tail But You Ain´t No Real Cool Cat

admin | November 26, 2010

“You told me you was high class
But I can see through that
Yes, you told me you was high class
But I can see through that
And daddy I know
You ain’t no real cool cat” ( Lyrics Big Mama Thornton )

………….

In The Vintage Fairy Tales it´s the opposite.

We have cool, high class visitors.

Two “Devon Rex”, with impressing artistic interest and good taste are staying with us for a while.

When I came home the other day they did an in-depth study

of a Julie Arkell brooch.

…………….

The beautiful sculpture is made by Lisa Larson a Swedish ceramic artist.

………..

Happy weekend/

Becky

Take Me To The River

admin | September 25, 2010

………..

“Take me to the river, drop me in the water.” (Talking Heads )

…………

Well, can´t we just drop the “river thing” ,

and go to the Farmers Market instead ?

I need to buy some tasty apples for the apple pie party

in The Vintage Fairy Tales, this afternoon.

Come and join the party!

……….

Love to all of you/

Becky

I´m Going Up The Country,Babe Don´t You Wanna Go

admin | June 27, 2010

…………..

“I´m going up the country, babe don´t you wanna go

I´m going to some place where I never been before

I´m going,I´m going where the water tastes like wine

We can jump in the water stay drunk all the time” ( lyrics Alan Wilson, Canned heat)

…………

Oh please do not worry about me.

I´m going,I´m going to the promised land,

and I would be very surprised and even upset, if the water tasted anything but water.

The Skating Monkey is slightly worried though, about “the jump in the water thing”…

There is no ground for anxiety,

I will probably be stitching and knitting all night long.

…………

See you soon my friends,

I´m going to travel to France for attending a workshop with Julie Arkell.

Love/

Becky
