Sunday Brunch

Posted on January 27, 2013 | Leave a comment

Hello friends. How has your week been? I’ve spent much of it curled up keeping warm and nursing a bad back, but have been pleasantly surprised this weekend by the nice weather and rise in temperature.

I went out and purchased a vintage Art Deco desk from a charity shop near where I live yesterday (pictures to follow when I’ve picked it up and brought it home!) There seems to be an increase in charity shops specialising in vintage clothing and homewares recently – something I’m more than happy about!

See below for links to a few fun things that have caught my eye this week….

Etsy Shop Announcement

Posted on October 8, 2012 | Leave a comment

I’m happy to say I’ve finally started to stock some items in my little Etsy shop. I hope to get creating more and have a fully stocked store soon, but for now I listed a few pretty collage packs.

I found an old copy of ‘The Country Flowers of a Victorian Lady’ by Fanny Robinson and have handmade little envelopes out of them. Each envelope is then filled with a variety of ephemera and paper items. I hope they’ll be well received. I think they’d make original gifts for friends who like to make collages and craft projects.

I’m always making little cards and finding new ways of decorating gifts so I hope to share some of these with you. What do you think?

Fall into Autumn – Etsy Treasury

Posted on October 6, 2012 | Leave a comment

Autumn is well and truly here in the UK now. I want to wrap up warm and go for country walks, ending in bonfire parties and later drinking mulled wine in front of a toasty fire. I want to dress in tweed, wear scarves and pick harvest fruit.

I’ve curated a little Etsy treasury featuring some of the fabrics, textures and colours that remind me of this mellow season. What do you like about Autumn?
