feeling fruity
I think its definitely time for another DIY! This one’s been hanging around for a while waiting to be posted and I’ve only just got down to it. After my crazy work stint trying to get my etsy shop up and running I had a a day of light relief in the form of a creative fun Friday, where…

Last Thursday I spent an intense but brilliant day at New Designers Exhibition for The Design Trust creative start up talks. By the end I’d acquired a very heavy head, full of useful info and buzzing with ideas. There was then a chance to check out all this years design talent so I had a wonder…

Donuts! I haven’t met many people that don’t like them. My husband is in fact the only one I know which inevitably means more for me so no tears shed there. I basically needed an excuse to try out my unused donut pan and these seemed like a brilliant idea. Now I don’t advise these for…

Hello! I was about to say good morning and then realised it was somehow the afternoon! Don’t worry I’m not still in bed, otherwise this featured post would be highly hypocritical. Ezebee is a handmade and vintage marketplace for indie sellers and is committed to promoting creative community. They asked me to contribute a post about working…

Where did that week go? And why do I ask myself that question most weeks? I guess I just better get used to it. Well because it’s Friday and every one loves a freebie, here’s this month’s desktop TLC with a summery theme, of course. We really have been enjoying such nice weather! Let’s hope…
Read Moreoff to the beach
I thought I’d hijack the sunny weather and share this tutorial to turn a standard straw bag into shoulder candy fit for a fiesta. Unfortunately it doesn’t look like I’ll be jetting off anywhere hot and sandy this year (I’m still coming to terms with it) but I always love to take a giant, bright beach bag to hold…

Aahh finally some more DIY ideas to kick around this place. I’m not gonna lie, I wasn’t all together that hopeful that these plaster of paris pots were going to work. The last time I used the stuff was probably in summer holiday kids camp where there was at least an array of Disney characters in…
Read MoreThe Lovely Drawer Shop is here!
Well hello! Blogging has taken a back seat over the last two weeks but I hope you don’t mind too much because it’s all been in aid of getting my new Etsy shop off the ground, yay! I often get asked why I don’t have an Etsy shop and I’ve asked myself the very same question…

You certainly don’t have to be whizz in the kitchen to pull these bad boys off, instead the flavour combination does all the talking! We had a brie and walnut pizza in Belgium (authentic, I know) and it was so delicious that I felt inspired to do something along the same lines. You can find…
Read Moresomething for your screen
Here I am to deliver you this month’s free desktop wallpapers, packaged and sealed with love. There was an abundance of take away quotes from Blogtacular so it seemed like a no brainer for them to make their way onto some screen art. I picked these two quotes from Natalie Lue and Isa Maria…

I hope you’re all enjoying a long bank holiday weekend! Nick told my outright that if I was even thinking of doing any work over the bank holiday (which I might have been) that he wouldn’t let me get away with it. So that’s that then. I thought I’d just break into the long weekend…
