I couldn't help it ...I did it again.....it was really cheap.... and it's vintage ...sorry Mr VL I won't buy any more...I promise! (unless I see a really really cheap one in a thrift shop of course)
I have the same problem... I am completely unable to resist a globe, especially if it's only a couple of dollars! I just picked up my 7th (or is it 8th?) globe this week at my local Goodwill for $1.99. I just love the scholarly, geographical feel, combined with the graphic punch of the seemingly infinite different color combinations! :)
Hi Meg: I know Australia isn't New Zealand, but have you heard of "Weiss" art designs? Yesterday I bought a set of coasters with Weiss art designs in Richmond, Virginia, USA, and wondered if they are popular by you? Thx, Karen
There's a photo of the coasters at the top of my blog post:
The Weiss brand is a fairly iconic brand in Australia not N.Z ( Adele Weiss is a fashion designer and I think her branding was sold to a large company) They have a good website if you google the name
Hiya Meg :) Sweet finds and I love that globe. Too cool! Hope you are enjoying your weekend.

ReplyDeleteI've been wanting a globe too and just found one for 15 dollars. I'm so excited about it. I may paint it, not sure yet.
