Flowers...

Soooo its a colleagues birthday at work tomorrow and since I made one person a card I now have to make everyone a card because otherwise it is just not fair!! I quite like doing it anyway as it shows people that I am a little more creative that they think ;)

So here it is... would love to hear your feedback.

CROCKERY ADDICTION!!

So yesterday I decided to go on a charity shop hunt, it was late saturday afternoon so I didn't expect much of it BUT to my delight I came across some beautiful pieces. The only problem is that I now have such a mixed collection I think my home may make people think I am a little mad but hopefully the beauty of each piece will be appreciated.

Why stick to one theme when there are sooo many to love. Well here they are, my retro teapot which came with 7 pieces incl bowls and plates and I also bought a couple of beautiful lace plates which I think are very 'now'.

Fiest your eyes...

Bombay Duck

Oooh last week was so tiring, the Spring Fair was hard work but full of amazing and inspiring homewares it was like being in homeware heaven!!!

This week iv been so ill and stressed and I havnt been myself. I received some not so good news yesterday, I can't tell you what but it has given me a push to move forward and pursue my dreams. :)

Now I know what to do.

Anyway, today's beautiful eye candy is from Bombay Duck...

Tweet tweet...

So tonight I decided to jump on the sewing machine and see if I could whip up some work and I did!!! My creative block somehow disappeared and I did 2 bird pieces, hope you like them...

Pink paisley

It might possibly be my favourite thing in the world. Ever since my mum bought home a beautiful pink paisley duvet set from ikea I've been addicted, so to find a phone case to match was amazing!!!! It came with 2 other colours and it cost £3... For the lot!!!

Beautiful bed linen...

I recently trawled the Internet for far too long looking for a duvet cover and the search was frustrating and unsuccessful until 1646775 bed websites later I decided to try notonthehighstreet.com and there it was, the one i had been searching for all along!!

I hope you share my love for the colour and pattern of this set as it is definitely not for those who like to keep things simple...

Sewing doodles...

Freehand embroidery is my favourite thing to do, drawing with the sewing machine is so effective but only when the sewing machine plays nice! when the tension plays up or the machine chews up the thread etc etc there is nothing worse!!! here is just a little 'doodle' I did the other day...

Wedding fever!!

So it seems everybody got engaged over christmas except me, not that I want to get married anytime soon (honest). So I have been asked to design a wedding invite for a vintage, whimsical country themed wedding... IN FRANCE! how beautiful does it sound!?

So here is what I've made so far...

Cupcake collage...

So I discovered a new iphone app that easily lets you split images into segments and creates simple yet effective photos that are really cute, the app is simply called photo collage. For some reason I just love playing about with photography apps on the iphone. Here are a few of my makes all put together as a little cupcake collage...
