So recently I purchased a house, actually settlement was only a day ago so this excitement is only very recent. It's been dubbed 'the haus of poop and doom' because it's one heck of a reno. Check out these photos of what it looks like.
So now I've bored you with my squat, I mean new house I can go on to tell you about the fun and exciting news. I had discovered when I first walked through this house a few weeks ago that there was heaps of cool old lino, so who else would I call but
Betty Jo Designs to come rescue my cool lino and turn it into beautiful art work as only she can.
I'm so excited, Betty Jo came for a visit, so like every good crazy fan I took some photos as she wandered through selecting pieces of lino. And even got to pose for a photo myself :)

These are only three out of about 8 different lino designs that we found in the House. Each room had multiple layers and some weren't salvageable but I am so pleased that Betty Jo was able to take some home and could see a vision for it. I can't stand seeing stuff like this go to the tip, to see it upcycled is so much more satisfying. Everyone should checkout
Betty Jo's blog or come into
Red Brick and see her wonderful creations. Here's some examples of her work. She is so very very clever.
