Daydreaming . . .

I think I have found the tattooist I would like to get work by, yay! I just need to send an email to see when and what I can get done . . . but I feel kinda silly because I dont have a specific design that I want, I just know the kind of things I like. I have been putting this email off for weeks . . . silly I know! Any advice from you fellow tattooed ladies? Do you always know exactly what you want? or are you happy to let the tattooist come up with something if you know they are the right person for the job?

Remember that fabric I found a few posts back? Well I have turned it into a couple of items . . . one of them being this playsuit, yeah! I copied the pattern from one I already own, im all about re making things I like in different fabrics. Part of me loves it, part of me feels like a walking bedspread, any opinions?

I am very much recovered from my cold from hell which is awesome, and I have been crazy busy the past week or so. I cant complain, I love having lots on the go but I would really like a full day of creative sewing as soon as I have a spare one. Iv got a playsuit making bug.

Oh yeah, the belt and shoes are thrifted too!

bleurghh . . .

Oh dear I am ill again :( im feeling rather poop and frustrated because its been super sunny and summery and I have absolutely no get up and go whatsoever. Last week I was totally on it, organized motivated and getting stuff done and this week, boom! sickness, not impressed. And to top it I have a lot of custom orders to get on with. Typical ay!

Anyway this was an outfit from last week. Whatdyathink? I have a little side project in the pipeline. I have also reduced tons of items in my etsy shop so take a peek! im pretty generous when im ill so take advantage lol :)

Right I am off to eat ice cream and watch trashy T.V, goodnight! x

Etsy favorites . . .

I spied these a couple of days ago and someone has snapped the first two up  already :( 

They are super sweet though, so im going to post them anyway.

Whah! where does the time go! I have had a crazy couple of weeks and I turned 27 . . . yep thats right, 27 on the 6th March. I can not believe I am this old! Anyway I have neglected the blog for too long. Heres a brief catch up, I have gotten a few more hours work at the pub so I am trying to adjust to working late and getting home at 5am on the weekends then waking up early and doing my sewing job  during the week . . . . Its kinda tough but I have made myself a timetable to organize my life. With naps included and everything. I feel like im back at school. But so far so good, im being super productive and I like it!

Its only my first week testing my timetable out and it will need a little tweaking but so far I have managed to spend less time online (im sure we all get sucked in and distracted on the internet) I need to cut my browsing down and be more productive when im online. Im limiting internet work to the evenings. So the past few days I have gotten some sewing projects done. I have made 2 dresses, cut out a 3rd, drafted a pattern for and made up a playsuit. Sewn up a custom order, photographed a batch of items and even spent a morning charity shopping. . . . thats quite a lot.

Oh and did I mention I have been doing yoga every morning! just call me superwoman! 

Heres some of the goodies I bagged on my shopping spree.

Oh and last but not least I had a super sweet birthday eve with some wonderful friends. Yummy food at a local noodle bar then lots of chit chat and cups of herbal tea at a swanky cafe/bar afterwards. I wish I would have taken a camera out . . . . I really need to photograph more. Here's a snap of the lovely handmade and thoughtful gifts I received.

My friends are the cutest!

I think im in love!

That is all.

The sun is shining . . .

I can feel summer is just around the corner and I am excited! I went for a mooch around some charity shops today and picked up a few random bits . . . you've got to love a good rummage. Car boot season will soon be here too, yay! I just need to wake myself up early enough to go.

Anyway I picked up these two tops last week and I finally bought some vinyl to use as a backdrop for photographing, so I had a bit of a play. I am super happy with the background I think it looks so much more professional dont ya think?. I hate being in photos though, I feel really vain taking pictures of myself. Im not vain I promise, although I did photoshop my face, if you ever see me in real life beware lol. And the point of todays post is? I love vinyl, yeah!
