“Never believe in mirrors or newspapers."
The quote is somewhat ironic since the frame of the mirror and the jug are made of newspapers, designed by artisans in a third world country. The objects are in a shop called 10,000 Villages, a non-profit free trade store in St. Paul where I volunteer one day a week.
Theme Day has come around again. This month's choice is "reflections": Click here to view thumbnails for all participants.
And a silver-blond haired lady reflecting on the correct camera settings too...
ReplyDeletebeau reflet et belle photo graphique
ReplyDeleteA nice reflection, but the things I like more are those objects: they are so unusual, vreative and beautiful...
ReplyDeleteIt's a nice mirror and a nice reflection. I think it would even look good in my house!
ReplyDeleteHappy theme day.
I love the quote;never more true!
ReplyDeleteI love that we get the tip of you in the bottom of the mirror.
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful way to recycle newspapers. Clever artisans.
ReplyDeleteVery clever, the way this is made. Your quote is perfect.
ReplyDeleteMirror, mirror on the wall,
ReplyDeletewho is the greatest of them all?
Why - GREAT Kate of course!
Nice reflection!
That is an interesting mirror! Great reflection too.
ReplyDeleteUnique and most interesting. And what makes it special is that special person peeking up with a camera!
ReplyDeleteGreat idea and it looks good too.
ReplyDeleteArty items and a good choice of photo to the theme day.
ReplyDeleteShe's the fairest of us all! Fun to see you a little bit in the mirror, Kate. Thanks for sharing about the shop and the work of the artisans. You must have fun seeing all the beautiful items. It would be dangerous for me to work in such a shop as I'd want to take a lot of it home :-).
