Sophie has recently discovered that the spot inbetween the computer stands is a good place to hang out.

For want of a better name, this little display case is called a cubby house. Full of funny little things I've collected over the years.
Felt I needed some Bear therapy as really missing not getting out to Alaska this year to get up close and personal with these magnificent animals,one of thousands of pictures I took from Silver Salmon Creek including these inquisitive cubs and their very tolerant momma made it a fantastic visit.....Wishing my life away but roll on August next year!!!
Got a little bored last night so decided to do some lightpainting with my son's cubbyhouse. Tried to paint some "people" on the swing, with little success and then include the night sky over Bathurst. 5 layers for the cubbyhouse, 3 shot panorama to include the sky, F2.8 ISO 3000 15 second exposure for the night sky, ISO 400 F.7.1 20 second exposure for the light painting effects. Adjustments in lightroom 5, panorama blended in Panorama Pro
I liked the idea of cubbies because they can be easily rearranged to fit the need. I left a small space for play in the middle.
This is the shoe cubbies for Jia's class, with the students' name in each unit.
Guess which one is Jia's shoe?

Cubbies are your friend. Somehow this cubby-style bookcase makes all my “stuff” (that would otherwise be strewn around the room/apartment) seem ordered. You can group like things together, conceal smaller/messier items in bins/boxes, and have pretty things on display. All without labeling a thing! And it only comes out from the wall 15”, so it’s a major space saver. (Expedit bookcase from Ikea, various sizes/prices). -- Kate, Real Simple Home Department
Shots taken of the exhibition – BANKSY in the Canterbury Museum.
December 30, 2013, Christchurch New Zealand.
A collection of prints and canvases by the world-renowned artist will be on display at Canterbury Museum as part of a major street art festival opening in December.
The RISE festival aims to make Christchurch more colourful by commissioning international and New Zealand street artists to showcase their talent on up to 10 central-city walls.
RISE will be one of the largest exhibitions staged at the Canterbury Museum, with work by international and local street artists on display across 1000 square metres on three levels. The exhibition will also feature the Banksy collection and new work by Australian artist Ian Strange.
Nelson art collector George Shaw amassed the collection of about 22 works by Banksy, which have formed the centrepiece of successful street art shows he has staged in Nelson and Adelaide.
The collection was also the centrepiece of the Outpost festival in Sydney.
British artist Banksy first emerged on the streets of Bristol in west England during the late 1990s and has gone on to global success, an Oscar nomination, sold-out exhibitions and his work selling for millions of dollars.
Shaw is looking for a permanent home for his street art collection in Christchurch and hopes to stage the RISE festival every year.
"Our vision and dream is to turn Christchurch into the street art capital of the southern hemisphere," he said.
"In a short time, we could have a beautiful surprise around every corner, turning blank walls into beautiful vistas."
Shaw said street art could do for Christchurch what art deco did for Napier after the 1931 earthquake.
"Street art is the art of this generation. It is an opportunity for this city to create a new identity for itself."
Museum director Anthony Wright said the festival would be a celebration of street art.
"RISE has not been designed to glorify graffiti, encourage or promote vandalism. This exhibition will profile the very best of street art, a recognised genre celebrated worldwide - most recently at the 2013 Venice Biennale," Wright said.
Australian street artist Vans the Omega yesterday started work on a wall in Madras St. The artist, known for his angular and colourful style, will spend the next few days creating his large artwork on a CPIT campus wall opposite the Countdown car park.
"I don't have a drawing or a colour map.
"I feed off the environment, people coming past and the surroundings to create the work. I just let go and go for it," he said.
