i love this

and its from here

best in show

OK so this wasn't an award that i was actually given, but my stall at the event i have just done was easily the most colourful and interesting... or at least i think it was... and it certainly helped sales as i sold lots of things...

who wants to win a prize

its a very special prize.. and you have 1 week left to enter... you see my favorite stockist carry me home is celebrating a big girl birthday and she is now 6 yrs old.. and i have been given a gift voucher for £35.00 to give away, and its easy peasy to enter, all you have to do is comment on this picture with a nice birthday message, and please follow this link to carry me homes face book page and like them... go on, what you got to lose... its £35.00 to spend online, or in the shop, which is in Londons ever so fancy Carnaby st area.. just about 100 yards from the world famous Liberty department store..

and your name will be added to the names who commented on my facebook page.. which i urge you to also "like".. who doesn't like to be liked...

could have should have

i love a good rummage around etsy vintage and put lots of things in my fave album hoping one day that i might have the spare cash for a bit of a splurge, but i always risk the chance of things selling before i can grab it, i accept this and have missed some lovely things.. but hey, if they were meant to be mine then they would be i guess... but look at what i could have and should have bought, and this will most likely give you an idea of the kind of things i like..

i love cushions

i like making things, i LOVE fabric and i love having a project on the go and have many things on my to do list... but i really really like making cushions.. from lovely lovely fabrics.. and i have just finished some for my new shop, and they are real happy accidents.. i didnt think about it too much, i just got a mix of fabrics and sewed them together and then got my bag of ribbons out and like a lucky dip just kept going until the edges were trimmed in a frilly ribbony splendid lovlieness... and they might just be a bit too much.. but i love them...

i love this

this is so lovely, and a perfect gift. i want one ... wanna buy me one ?.. its from more than words, a place where you can personalise lots of text based art for your walls..

i love this
