Today, I want to show yous things I LOVE from little shops and markets around Nairobi. It's my version of pinterest if you will - given that I am hiding from that website because I'm sure it will make me even more covetous than I already am and waste more of my precious time on this planet looking at things that don't matter much.
And please - If yous have the time, could yous leave me comments about the items that yous love the most??

First, you are doing a good thing staying away for Pinterest. It's a little confusing and certainly a time suck.
ReplyDeleteSo I'll be your first commenter here. I guess it's time to start hoarding things into your suitcase if you'll only be there a little longer. I love just about all of it. I'm not a jewelry person, so I can't speak to that, except that it's small and easy to travel with. But I do wish that I could have all the fabric stuff there. I have a thing for fabric.
As for the wooden spoons in the banana leaf basket. It makes me want to go make some banana puddin'. That's a good thing. Love those. Great conversation piece, beautiful, story, cant be overlooked. That handbag with the funky b/w design. Awesome. Could go on. Get it all!
Thanks Holly - There are some amazing fabrics here - loads of colors and prints. I wish I was more creative with my ideas of what to do with it all.
