Heatwave

So it seems my previous post was a little premature.

We have a heat wave in the last week of September...in Britain!




Here I am down Cardiff Bay enjoying a mint choc icecream yum!

One finished, one to go

So I finally framed my Home Sweet Home stitch and its hanging in the spare room.

This is the progress Ive made to the Sailing Boats for the bathroom



I messed up the highlights on the sails a bit but no one will notice when its on the wall :]

Embracing Winter

It wasnt a great summer but Im fully geared up for winter now as it is fast approaching.


I want some of these from Joe Browns £14.95 bargain!

Holiday week!

I was silly enough to book my holiday week just before payday which means I am so skint this week I cant really afford to do much!

However Cradiff is fabulous for cheap entertainment.

Sailing Boats

Got a bit crafty and started a new cross stitch.

Another Cath Kidston pattern, this one will go in the bathroom :)



so far...



Ive been thinking a lot lately that I would like to invest in a sewing machine. A decent one (not like the £20 one I bought which never worked!) I have a lot of home decor plans and I can't do them without a sewing machine!!

Anyone have a good machine that they would recommend. Im looking for something that does the basics and I dont really want to spend more than £200.

Purple and Gold

I was in Birmingham recently and went into Selfridges for a look around. I shouldnt have because now I can't get these shoes out of my head!

Gucci £540


Found a cheaper alternative in New Look £38


hmm lovely but not quite Gucci...

Chapatis

I made Chapatis for the first time ever last night.

They arent difficult but they taste great!


Ben took a sneaky photo of me in my pjs while I was cooking, I dont make much effort when Im staying at home as you can see, also had most of my hair cut off only reaches my shoulders now!

do you like my mental kitchen?

J'adore Dior

I love the Grace Kelly and Marlene lookalikes!
