One of the best things about wearing a swing dress is the gorgeous petticoats you get to wear underneath! ☺️XXX

I'm back from Spring Break...and back to sharing what I wore in the art room this week...if you like, you can see more here:

This is most of the upstairs of my little house. The bed, pillow, rug, blue and red-lined cubbies, ladybug, mushroom, clock, and bunny are all from the Megahouse Retro Style Collection (Happy Story Series, 2004). The rest of the items are from the Re-ment room series, which I have heard called "Room Data," "My Petite Room," and "Room Collection." There are five sets in the room collection, and this photo shows items from four of them, the Scandinavian room, the modern room, the princess cabinet, and the Japanese room.
By the way, I got the idea of putting the Retro Style/Room Data furniture into this house (Sylvanian Families Rose Cottage) from these very cute Flickr photos of the "Figumate House": www.flickr.com/search/?q=figumate house&w=all. So it's not my idea at all. : )
Typeface in use:
Ricardo Marcin’s and Erica Jung’s (PintassilgoPrints) ultra-bold, cool and funky typeface »Manicuore«.
Manicuore is a hand-drawn typeface inspired on Italian movie posters by the prolific movie poster artist Symeoni (a.k.a. Sandro Simeoni). Being a talented and skilled painter, portraitist and illustrator, Symeoni enjoyed a long and fruitful career and was remarkably productive during the sixties and seventies. He counts over 3,000 works to his credit, which truly fed the imagination of several generations.
This all-caps font brings different lettershapes on upper and lower case slots, which work as alternates, providing handy options to spice up your compositions. When using it in OpenType savvy applications just turn on contextual alternates feature to instantly cycle lettershapes – a one click way for adding spontaneity while also preventing neighbor double letters from using the same glyph. To put the icing on the cake, Manicuore brings a cool set of graphic elements that match the typeface look and feel. An inspiring toolbox for creative lettering designs.
Race the Waves is one of the UK’s most exciting vintage motorsport events, held annually on the sandy beaches of Bridlington, East Yorkshire. It's a celebration of classic speed, style, and seaside culture, where the roar of engines meets the roar of the crowd. Hosted by Backfire Promotions, the event brings together a vibrant mix of vintage and retro vehicles in a dynamic beach drag race setting.
You'll see an incredible variety of machines, from pre-1950s hot rods, bobbers and custom motorcycles to military vehicles and American classics. The cars and bikes aren’t just for show, they race head-to-head in thrilling sprints across the beach, kicking up sand and nostalgia in equal measure. There’s no official timing, it’s all about style, sound and spectacle.
Steam enthusiasts have at least four opportunities a year to ride a steam train in Thailand. These day trips take place on 26th March (anniversary of the opening of the first public railway), 12th August (Queen’s birthday), 23rd October (anniversary of the death of King Chulalongkorn) and 5th December (HM The King’s birthday). Sometimes there are additional trips. Each trip has a different destination. The steam trains are usually kept at the workshops near Thonburi station when not being used. I have been there before to take pictures though officially it’s not open to the public.
