Confession: the following has nothing whatsoever to do with sewing, knitting or fashion, but it is just too good not to share...Go to Google Maps. Get directions. Put in Japan as a start point and China as an end point. Go to step 43. Lol!
Now this one is even better. Enter Perth, Western Australia (my home town) as your start point, and USA as your end point. Check out step 32. Totally priceless!!!!
And now back to business, this is my Dad's shed... built entirely with his own two hands from scrap mostly found at the tip.. isn't he a clever man? The front door was from a house in Peppermint Grove, this being Perth's swish-est suburb... this fact gives my parents endless amusement...! Can I just say, if there was a house-building and household goods Refashion site Dad would be member numero uno...
Details:
Jeans: Burda 7863 with modifications, rust corduroy
Camisole; Country Road
Cardigan; Metalicus (secondhand)
Thongs (flipflops); Mountain Design

Okay, those directions are hilarious! But, I'm thinking there has to be a better way to get from Perth to the US. :)
What a hoot! Somebody inputting those directions must have a sense of humour. Can't be all machine-generated.
That is too funny! I think I'd prefer to fly :))
What a wonderful shed. That sort of hands-on talent must run in the family.
Now THAT'S a shed! Very funny directions - they make sense really!
Your Dad's shed should be registered with the National Trust. It is amazing.
This looks exactly like how I imagine the australian outback structures to look. I'm married to a man who similarly scavenges. :)
Hahaha. Let's kayak across the big blue ocean. How fun. How did you find out about this? :D
Lovely seeing you in the weekend. The shed has many happy memories of us all camping in it while building our house.
I've got a kayak! I'm on my way over! Mind if I bunk at your place? :)
Now we know where you get a lot of your craftacular nature. You got the double-whammy of a creative Mom AND a handy pop. Lucky girl!
I wonder why one is Jet-ski and another was kayaking? hmmmm ...
and your dad's tales from med school are a riot. A coach I worked with years ago had his athletes put his little car on top of the concession stand once ...
What a relaxing weekend you must have had!
Oh, so funny! I love this shot of you and your Dad's shed. What a wonderful place that must be.
