curious keys

Hi!

I am busy in preparation for my little ad going live on Thursday, trying to get as many products done as physically possible! I'm aiming for 50! Eek! I was already at 40 but I sold three lol... anyway, I'm hunting for resources tonight, I've given myself some money to spend and I'm very excited to spend it! I'm looking for old keys at the moment...i love them so much! Here are some lovely ones I've found.

This is VERY cute! Love the details.



Wow! Price tag on these is a bit scary though ($250+)

Mmm, such a lovely collection here!

Okay, so I'm off to search for materials and lovliness.

See you later

exciting news!

Hi guys! Had such a busy day again today, been updating my Etsy and making look all beautiful because.....guess what....I am going to advertise on my favourite ever blog... A Beautiful Mess. I can't even describe how excited I am to be able to see my little logo on that site. I can quite happily say that finding Elsie's blog completely inspired me to start my own, I look to her pretty much everyday for inspiration...you can't believe one person could have so much talent!

As I'm feeling pretty happy right now, I will leave you with some scummy pictures of cute cupcakes. Hopefully I will get to make some soon!!

I'm growing on the idea of a cupcake wedding cake! This one is sweet!

I really like the colour of these!


These just shout...love!!!


And I wanted to add these ones because I have a huge thing for cherries at the moment. I could do with some now actually...mmmmm reminds me of my childhood!

See you tomorrow!

playing nurse

Hi everyone, just a very quick little post to say I will be doing no crafting or proper blogging tonight because my litle boy is poorly sick. He has a mega temperature and a headache so he needs full time cuddles too!

Image is from here...purely for cute purposes!

See you tomorrow!

illustration inspiration

Hi, I was in need of some serious inspiration today, I felt totally drained and deserted by all creative energy. I had a little peek on the internet and found these super cute illustrations. They are so lovely, I need to get some original art for the new house...or maybe I need to take a few classes and do some myself.


This is so sweet, and even better it's on a moleskine! LOVE LOVE LOVEI really like the colours and style of drawing on this typewriter, I think if I were to do illustrations, it would end up in this style, not too serious and a bit fun!


I want to be in this garden!


And this is just lovely! I would like this on a canvas. Not sure where it would go though, hmmm.

Have a lovely evening, be creative!

thrifty buys, oh how I love you!

Oh my gosh, I got totally carried away in two cute little shops the other day! I got so excited thinking about my new house that I wanted all these things for it. On the whole it all cost less than £18 so it was a total bargain! Have a looksee!

I got this in a whole set for £2...wow! It's so sweet, I love that it comes with a larger cake plate!

This lovely lace piece will be going in my kitchen I think!

As will this cream lunch tin...gorgeous! (the colour didn't show too well in these pics)

I have wanted one of these for soooo long, couldn't believe my luck at finding one!

More tea/coffee pots for my collection!

And this one makes 4! woohoo

This will look so pretty with a red carnation in it! (also a lovely cream colour to match the lunch tin)

And this was too lovely not to have. And this also matched the cream colour exactly...lucky or what!

I'm so happy with my purchases? What have you been buying recently?
