Inspired by: The Giant's House

I was never a huge fan of mosaic. That is, until we visited The Giant's House in Akaroa. The house (and garden) owner, Josie, has spent the past 12 years (yes, years!) creating the most amazingly fabulous original artworks all around her little garden, all covered in mosaic. Now, this is an ode to the craft if there ever was one. It just looks amazing, check for yourself.

How about an apple honey?

Bees flying over some beautiful (real) red flowers.

"Le Cercle des Amis", where it all started...


Some bigger than real life musicians and my mum ready for a boogie



crawly spiders along one of the paths

The Sweet Patooti. It has real music coming out of it too!
