Friday Finds

Every morning on the way to work it's the same daily routine... Hop on the 44 bus into town, weigh up whether I have time/cash to grab a quick, small 1/2 shot mocha from Esquires Coffee House, before jumping on the 62 out the west end. This happens every Monday to Friday. BUT, last week I started work at 1pm on SATURDAY. Who knew there were so many quirky little shops hidden behind normally closed shutters?! Out the corner of my eye one little shop front caught my attention: "The Shop of Interest..."


Yes! I thought, I am interested...

So, on Wednesday evening after work I made the point of walking a few bus stops further than normal to check out what little things of interest might be lurking behind the shutters. Here are a few of the things I found:

 silk scarves, kimonos and cusions by Morag Macpherson

Queen of Hearts ring by Rentaro Nishimura

Hand painted sailor matryoshka dolls by Hole In My Pocket


Punk mugs

Thoriac necklace
