It's all about the little things!



So here's the thing! Well two things really. I'd like to say I 'just happened' to spot this quirky stencil in Leederville on Sunday, but truthfully it was a bit of a search.. and by that I mean myself, P, sis and bruv-in-law had to really search :) The irony of the weed killer spray surrounded by weeds was not lost on me when I saw it on a website, especially after a morning pulling head high weeds out of Aimee's garden, and I was determined to find it, just didn't realize how tiny it would be, can you find it on the wall below? (sorry about the sunspot)


Oh and the other thing.. when eventually we did find it way down there, there wasn't a weed in sight. So like any other enterprising photographer I pulled up a weed from a little way off and 'transplanted' it for effect.. you would have done the same right :) Not a mind blowing mural but it tickled my fancy! Happy Tuesday, take care and stay safe..

  10. Even funnier because you transplanted the weed. The Weed Kill stencil may have done its job.

  11. That was funny, but as you said hard to spot in that huge building...

  18. Attack the high cost of weed killers. Make your own. 1/2 water 1/2 vinegar mix. It works!

  21. Tee hee! You do have a bit of the devil in you, Grace. We're not supposed to use weed killers her in Ontario, Canada. So I pull a LOT of weeds.

  23. It's even funnier when you imagine the artist crawling on his belly to stencil an image so close to the ground. I wouldn't have told on myself. I guess that makes you a more evolved person. Thanks for contributing to this week's Monday Mural.
