A beautiful site. Just lying in wait. Something I've been waiting for. A beautiful sight.
The Domestic Soundscape is out of Oxford, and I haven't even begun to discover the depths of this woman's ideas and images. But who can argue with a hand knit Sonic Death Monkey?
I heard this gorgeous phrase, 'drastically odor-free laundry' on the radio today. Here's the story, from KQED's The California Report, if you want to listen to it yourself. All about Borax and Ronald Regan. Amazing. (The photos are from Wikipedia, thank goodness for them.)
And, if that weren't enough, I also found this website: Old Fashioned Homemaking, Traditional Values for Modern Homes. And this beautiful phrase: 'ten frugal tips for the laundry room' -- who wouldn't love that alliteration? And when I tried to copy a photo from the site, the site politely thanked me for not copying. A polite website, with pink roses, about laundry and home values. I can't decide if I should laugh or cry. What do you think?
We do need a photo, though, to give you the idea. So, here's a similar hat photo (click for attribution).
And who knew there was a Museum of Domestic Design and Architecture?? I shouldn't be surprised that it's in the UK. Thanks for being out there for me to find.
Now back to my thesis (talk about a major distraction!).
