More Lovely Ugly Keepers

 Yes, yet another post about one of my favourite things, West German goodness. You may remember when I first confessed to my addiction in this post. The tall brown one at the back above and his lovely friend in the front are two of my latest.
I love the touch of red on this one.
The chap at the back is also a recent find. Lovely orange and super lava texture.
 This one was on my dining table recently in an earlier post. I used to have a rule about the colours I keep so as to keep my collection under control but I have devised a way to keep a few greeny ones I love by putting them in another part of the house. I know what you are thinking..."she is out of control" and you are probably right but I did say this is an addiction.
My hallway is new West German virgin territory and will be home to a few green chaps. This guy is now on top of my linen cupboard. If only the hallway was bigger but thank goodness for high ceilings.

  1. In your line of work it must be so difficult not keeping everything. I like your lateral thinking to add the green to another room lol.

  3. How could you not adopt a few? My house would be full of this and that if I had your job. The green ones make a nice change :)

  10. My nana would be sooo jealous of your collection! And I mean that in the best possible way, she has a house full of goodness and it's my favorite place to be in the whole world.
