Take a picture for me


We have actually had SUNSHINE for the last two days :) I get cold really easily so its nice to able to wear an outfit without having to layer hoodies on top. Happy days :) Maybe the time has come where we can finally put our gloves and scarves away and skip around in shorts and flipflops? :) I feel like I haven't blogged for a while (probably because I haven't) but I just wanted to say thank you to all the lovely people who left me comments on my last post, It really means a lot to me :)

I added to my jewellery collection yet again last week, but I don't feel too bad as it came from asda and primark


I love anything heart shaped and floral and this was £1.50 from Primark so I couldn't leave it there :)


I really really like these earrings. They're from Asda and I think they were about £2. They look really pretty on and they're nice and summery. I've always thought supermarkets were a bit crap and if I'm honest, a bit old granny ish when it comes to the clothes and jewellery, but actually they do have some really pretty little things in sometimes and at a fraction of what you would pay in River Island or Topshop. Lesson learned :)



These earrings are from Topshop £8. I've always been on the fence about weather I actually like
 feather earrings or not but I do actually quite like these.


I love theses earrings they are really pretty. My sister brought me the matching ring for christmas so when I saw these a few weeks in River Island I decided to get them. Think they are around £6


This ring is also from River Island but a few weeks ago.
Its all heart shaped and sparkly :)
 and it goes with my earrings that are like this from New look :)


These were kind of an impulse buy from New Look as I thought they looked
really nice and summery. I'm to sure if I like them all that much now though. I think they look a bit
tacky but we'll see.


And lastly just had to include a picture of these little bird earrings.
 They where a £1 from Asda I love them.



This is what I'm wearing today, I get cold really easily
so its nice not to have wear several layers  :)
I really like the green top its from Topshop and it I think it was £16



You can't see it underneath my cardigan but it has pretty scallop straps







My new necklace I made last week. This one didnt take as long and
 I managed not to prick my finger with the needle once :)
I added birds to the bottom of this one. I wasn't sure if it would work but I quiet like it

love and kisses

Lets paint the town floral


I love adding to my jewellery collection, I could do it daily, perhaps hourly if only my bank balance would allow it :) Sadly it does not. Lately I've started to make some more of my own jewellery as a way of trying to possibly counteract the amount of money I spend on buying it but it hasn't really worked. I love making my own things, but I still can't resist buying bits in the shops either. I think I will just have to be written off as a hopeless addict

This was the first flower necklace that I made
I love the colours , its a perfect summery necklace to wear with shorts
in the summer



*Uhhhh...bad photo of me! please excuse me in the picture, I hate having my picture taken but this was the one that showed the necklace the best. Sigh. Just ignore the girl and look at the necklace :)*
I just finished this necklace last week. It took blody AGES to make all the little flowers but
it was worth it in the end. I love the colours in it and it goes quite well with most of my wardrobe so thats a plus :)


I made this one back in the summer :) I love the blue and cream fabric and the little hearts in the middle of the flowers. This one I attached to a silver chain that I wasn't using.







Little accessorise style purse I made back in the summer. I love accessrize purses they are all so pretty and sweet, but I can't justify buying heaps of them as I would no doubt forget to use some. This was kind of like a trial and error type purse, I wasnt sure how it would turn out, but I do actually really like it for a first attempt. Just the right size for putting my bank card, lip gloss and some loose change in for summery evenings in a pub garden :)

I love this headband because I love the colours and the shape to it :)





 I love all the floral headbands that are around at the moment. I would love to wear them but I always feel a bit wierd with headbands in my hair I'm not entirely sure they suit me :|  This is my little sister  modeling it for me. She was really patient bless her as it was absolutley freezing outside and as you can see shes just wearing a t-shirt. Thanks megs :)

Fabric flower bracelet that I made in uni. I don't really wear this I just keep it on my
dressing table to look pretty :)
One of the flower necklaces I made for uni

I would love to have this as a full time job :) I think I would have died and gone to heaven; working with pretty sparkly things for a living :D
love and kisses
