"...Come out from
the attic Sugar!!! "

" OKIE!...Let's leave the 'Attic' & travel to
Nairobi - East Africa for now Darlingsss..."
.
....Don’t you want to have breakfast with giraffes? Would be just fabulous! …Yes-yes-yes!!! Certainly they won't talk about the ugly war nor the depressing economy! I think they would prefer to gently inspect the homemade jam and warm toast.

Well…~Welcome to Giraffe Manor, CHARMed*...
.
~Take a trip*...shall we...

.

.
.
Absolutely surreal... isn't it?!
The Giraffe Manor is an elegant, personally hosted, small exclusive hotel, famous for its resident herd of CHARMING* Giraffes! Ooohhh...really hope to visit this magical place one day...
.
...Can't seem to get enough of this CHARMING creature
~so here are More...Enjoy!

...I'm loving this tall & lean novel
by J.M Ledgard

...LENORENEVERMORE was inspired to do another quirky illustration
after looking at this very tall model :
.
its neck—longerrrrr...than Gisele Bundchen's!!!
~Sometimes I wonder how the food travels from its mouth down the long throat...to the stomach & out from 'where the sun don't shine'-anus!(errr...am I alone here? Wondering about this looong dark journey??!!)
.
" Whahaha......"
~this is so WRONG yet so RIGHT!!!
"sniff-sniff... I can smell weekend* coming!
Just half way there darlingsss...am I bad or am I bad?!"

  4. That would be so cool! I wonder 2 things though:
    1) Do you think the giraffes ever drool on the table?
    2) Would it be a complete fashion faux pas for us to go dressed head to toe in luxe giraffe print?

  8. This is fantastic! With the giraffes in the windows, it seems like it's right out of a Pippi Longstocking adventure...
    I actually think that giraffes are quite beautiful and majestic animals, but have you SEEN their tongues?! Those creep me out. And I wouldn't want to wake up with one drooling over my bed! Of course, some people (Ladies...) might use that sort of thing to their advantage. Ahem.;)

  20. I WANT to go there sooooo bad. I will share my toast and jam!!! They have the prettiest eyes and those shoes, those shoes....gasp.
    I am ferociously in love with this giraffe post Lenore. Standing Ovation,dahlink!

    hahaha...I never thought of the long dark journey from the mouth and out the tushie...heehee...that would be quite the ride. Maybe you could design a roller coaster based on that venture.

    Have a wonderful day sweets!

  38. Giraffe Manor...YES PLEASE.

    Only you could post about Giraffe's and make it fabulous.

    I think I'm going to dress up my lil pup like a Giraffe. She'll hate it! :)

  39. Giraffe Manor must be heaven. At a great safari-type nature preserve thing in Texas, a giraffe walked up to the car, bent all the way down, and ate from my hand. It's gentle little nuzzle from it's mouth to my hand is one of the best feelings ever. Giraffes have always been my favorite wild animal!
