I wish I was a punk rocker

 with flowers in my hair

Beautiful sunny day again today so I thought I would use the chance to get outside and take some photos of the latest necklaces and hair accessories that I've made. It so lovely out, I'm definatley not wishing the weather away but it was unbelievably hard to get decent photos of the headbands! The sun shone off everything making me look like I was wearing a shiny reflector headband in the shape of a flower instead of the pretty fabric that was on it. So if I haven't modelled some of them and they are just hanging off branches in my garden, it wasn't because I couldn't be bothered it was just they didn't want to photograph on me :) Anyway enough rambling.

Green sequined flapper style headband. I photographed this one previously but not on me so I thought I would show you what it looks like on.

Flower headband. 

This didn't take long to make at all but I really like it (though I say it myself)

I like big statement accessories the bigger the better :)

I don't wish to sound arrogant but I bloody  LOVE this necklace. (ahem)

Its actually goes with so many outfits for nights out  so I tend to wear it quite a lot :)



Pale green and cream flower necklace. I like the colours on this one as it pretty and girly

and I like pretty  things I'm like a little magpie

Flower headband

(I really need to come with some names these aren't very imaginative)

I really like this headband I think its my favourite one I have made. I didn't know weather or not to include the last photo as yeah, its rubbish but I wanted to show people what it looks like in. So you kind of get the gist just about lol. You can pull the headband to the side more and wear them lower on the head they don't have to sit as high as I had them

This one I've photographed before but I've added some material

to the sides as I thought it looked a bit plain

Vintage flower & button headband. I love buttons :)

I couldn't resist taking a few pictures of the tree in our garden.

Everything is so much prettier in the spring/summer

I would like to sell these one day either through an etsy shop

or at craft fairs etc. If you have the time I would love to know what you think

:)

love and kisses

Flowers in the Spring

EEeeeee I'm feeling quite excited at the moment :)  I finished my new necklace that I was making yesterday. I think its my favourite one that I have made so far I really like the colours its really pretty and girly and its the kind of thing that I would wear quite a lot or would buy if I saw it in a store. I wore it out today when I went in to town and when I went in to Lipsy, the girls in there asked me where I got it from, and when I said that I made it, they asked me if I sold them, and I said it was something that I would like to do, they said to come back when I did and to let  them know about it :) :) :)

Its always  really nice to hear other people say nice things about things that you've made :) My mum and my sister always like the things I make and say lovely things, but I guess its different when other people comment on it, as they don't know you and don't have to say anything nice :P haha. 

It was so warm today it really felt like the start of summer :)

Now that the weather is finally getting a bit warmer I can leave my coats at home and start wearing lighter dresses or cardigans out. Some of my coats are in a suitcase under my bed during the summer, but a few are in my wardrobe and when you don't wear them for a while they get a slightly dusty smell to them from having not been worn. This always drives me crazy as it means having to wash them, to get the fresh smell back when you take them back out of the wardrobe, and it makes the wardrobe smell a bit dusty sometimes too which I hate.  Yesterday I found a good solution to this though :)

Instead of just taking all the clothes out and hoovering inside, I ran a lemon scented bacterial wipe over the inside of the wardrobe and it smelt lush :) I love the smell of lemons anyway it makes everything smell so fresh. I added a few drops of Lavender essential oil to the wipe because its quite strong, and now everytime I've opened my wardrobe I get a nice waft of Lavender. If anyone has the same problem as me with storing coats and the dusty smell they get during the summer I would definatley advise you to this :) The wipes aren't expensive to get hold of and they really do make your wardrobe smell lovely :) 

Sorry for the blurry photo this was literally the best one I could get!

To help the smell to stay I added several drops of lavender to a fabric flower I wasn't using and tied it to the back of my wardrobe

I hope its lovely and sunny tomorrow too :) Me and my friend might go to Bristol

shopping, possibly good for my wardrobe but not so good for my bank balance

love and kisses
