These knitted snail and slugs are super sweet!

Go Snails! What better than to have your house on your back :)

Recycled doodlings of my cute little mind




There were a few boxes laying around my room in London, so instead of being incredibly un-green and simply throwing them in the bin, I've saved them for a new artsy project involving a lot of biros and even more doodling.

Being artistic makes me feel cosy inside <3

3. Knitted hat projects

This is my current project, however...I've run out of yarn! Halfway through as well, can you believe? Must remember to get in touch with the lady who runs the shop I got it from, hopefully they'll have some left! Pattern can be found here...

I like London: I heart the little boutique's

My Mr took me to Camden Street for a spot of shopping on Saturday and I came across this gorgeous boutique store, Dahlia. Everything is vintage inspired, I really could have bought all of their stock it was so pretty. I bought a cute dress and fell in love with a pocket watch on a chain which I desperately want. Unfortunately if I bought it I would definitely not make rent at the end of the month! So I was good, but only just.

Day and night in the city

The product of a bored evening in.

In London town

I've been away for so long I've forgotten how to blog. I finished uni in May, but since then I've been on a frantic job hunt which is proving not to be very promising at all; so far I've have been asked to zero interviews. What a great way to build self esteem.
I've come to London briefly while my Mr is working here, although I feel very out of water here having spent my life in a small town in the countryside. The city is so big and driving is near impossible, I actually fear having to get in my car incase someone scratches it. My little turtle car was not made for the city! The Tube was a lot of fun and I am proud to announce that I went on multiple downward moving escalators! Now, I must explain that I have a slight aversion to escalators that move downwards, up ones are fine, but the down ones are a nightmare and for many years I have refused point blank to use them.

Trip to London
1. Overcome at least one fear. CHECK!

At Land's End
