So I've been asked for "art" from a couple of my friends this Christmas & after weeks of oogling through etsy I now realise it's too late for anything to be delivered from America. So for inspiration I was looking at this amazing blog & came across Casey Burns, who has vaguely entered my conscience once before. The prints are pretty expensive but maybe if I start with the ideal I can then at least head out into the overpriced world of Clifton with some idea of what I want to buy for people...
Sorry this blog has taken a beating of recent as I've been swamped with Christmas presents & protest. Very conflicting thoughts so not being able to put together cohesive internet rants is unfortunately, one of the side effects. It does mean though that I spent yesterday making gingerbread decorations, putting up the tree, watching 2 Christmas film (Christmas with the Cranks & Serendipity) & managed to make flyers for the anti-tax dodgers protest this weekend. Now if that isn't multi tasking I don't know what is.
Please please please reblog this flyer if you're in Bristol. You can e-mail me (neonpeg@gmail.com) if you want the .pdf to print off flyers to hand out. There's more information here about protests all around the UK & if you've found yourself alienated by the student protests then let's refocus the target on the people who are really taking the piss & focus our anger in a more productive way!
We must sing, we must sing.
I will definitely reblog, though unfortunately I cannot be there myself because (it's a lame excuse, I know) it's my sister's 21st and we're doing stuff for that all day. I'll make sure I tell lots of people to make up for my own rubbishness. Oh and lovely posters!
ReplyDeletei so very agree.
ReplyDeleteand love the blog xx
fuuuuuuck, went to look at how much the joan jett one was. safe to say i regret it now. you really weren't lying when you said that they're expensive! and impressive multi-tasking skills you've got there, girl.
ReplyDeleteps, i'm having a christmas jumper giveaway (:
Oh your blog is brilliant.
ReplyDeleteAlicia: thank you! It's ok, I can't actually be there either because I'm skint & have to work. Trying to ease my conscience a little...
