Blog of a veggie lady who can't stay in one place for too long, loves to dumpster dive, loves to craft and can rant about feminism for hours! Just little notes and photos from my travels and the qwirky, fun, arty and ridiculous things I've seen! (and things I've found in bins.)

I use lots of maps in my crafting, they’re great for everything!  Origami, collage, book covers, artwork, maps are great!

I’m super broke right now so I’m having to sell of all my maps on ebay.  If anyone wants some please bid!  They’ll all be super cheap and if you want I’ll post you some fun craft ideas too!

I’m a wrapping pro today!  I had no normal post paper so sending and owl and things out to Australia in a map of Manchester!

I got sooo many maps off freecycle!  Origami time!

Decluttering my life by selling maps on ebay.  It probably won’t work.  But then I’ve got old maps of ebay before… you never know!

DUMPSTER DIVING HAUL OF THE CENTURY!  (or at least of the week)

I found out if I go to the second hand market at about 4 and try to go through the bins people will come and just give me things.  Like, all the traders were so friendly.  It’s the first time I haven’t been given dirty looks for dumpster diving!

AND WHAT A HAUL.

A man kept bring over boxes for me to go through.  I got looooads of books, about 8 mugs, a Jesus plate (that I’m looked disgusted at), a guide to Yorkshire with maps and stuff (that I’m over joyed at), an easel, a typewriter (which I gave to Elisa as payment for her picking me up… I had too much stuff to carry.) and all other sorts of joy!

AND I JUST MISSED OUT ON A HAT STAND.  GUTTED.

But still, that made for a good day.  I love Hudd more and more at the moment, it feels like my home now.
