I'm very pleased to share with you all that Buckets & Spades has a new contributer, say hello to Yasumi of Stranger London and her first post!
I am prone to flights of fanciful wish list making; it doesn't matter what season it is either. I often flit from one website to another seeking out interesting things. So when Mat asked me to usher today’s list towards Buckets & Spades, I was both delighted and humbled that my curious nature had got approval.
Now, I am not much of a gambler, more of an occasional “if I feel lucky” kind of dabbler, though I must admit to having a thing for scratching off the top foil on scratch cards. It feels so satisfying somehow. I also love world maps and was that weird kid who would memorise capital cities and which country shares a border with which. So when I spotted Luckies Scratch Maps on the Journal Shop’s website, I did a happy jig in my head (trust me it is safer that way).
They are basically massive scratch cards and a fun way to log your globetrotting adventures by (satisfyingly) scratching off the top foil of the place you have visited to reveal a colourful map beneath. I really want one, I fancy the Deluxe Edition that I saw on Luckies website. It is black and gold and oh-so-scratch-ably lovely. Luckies are a UK company that seem to spin out some really unique novelty items aside from these brilliant maps so it is well worth visiting their website for some great gift ideas.
Luckies Scratch Maps available here.
