Dragons!

By in Art!, caitlin's crap, making stuff is good

I found another dinner size plate yesterday, not by Johnson Bros, but close, it is Stafforshire. It’s a dark brown transfer and the plate is in pristine condition.

I also got these on a whim. Well, more as a knee jerk. I mean, for $1.99, how could I resist?

Amazing! No, they aren’t Lacoste alligators, they are dragons, and I believe they are the Canadian version. The cooler version.

And after some very careful consideration, I’ve decided to sew them onto everything I make, as a tag. I don’t know how many there are but I do plan on counting them, right after my coffee.

    I believe it was Sears that used them on their version of the Lacoste polo shirt?!

    I think you’re right, Jay. I tried googling them and only found a couple on etsy. Weird. Every boy wore them when I was a kid.

    WAIT! Which ones had the fox on them then?!?!?

    I am picturing you tossing and turning thinking about fox and dragon shirts. I think I might visit VV today and do some sleuthing.

    Retro Fox, I dont know where they are from. There is also Le Tigre with a tiger. I’m sticking with the dragon is from Sears theory until someone proves otherwise.

    Cute!! How many were there?

  7. Caitlin Jane says:

    Gah! Stop calling me out, Collette! I haven’t counted them yet and now I feel ashamed, haha, way to go!
