Happy Easter

Happy Easter! We've enjoyed celebrating with friends and family! As part of our celebrations we've dyed eggs but I forgot to photograph them! They looked a little like this but ours were all plain colours. We had plain colours and glittery colours. Hope you enjoy the day whatever you do! Blessings x

It's here!!

My Red Domino A5 is here! It's lovely! 


I've already been moving things in and she's already looking fat!


I made some dividers out of the Riverbank Revels paper. 


I haven't finished sorting it out yet but I have some sections in mind. I'd like a daily gratitude journal, a scribble/smash journal, quotes that inspire me, verses from the Bible that are important to me and I'm not sure what else. 

Really excited to have a journal again that encompasses I like!

Paintastic!

I work from home quite a lot and my office is tiny. I love it though, it's my space. This weekend I have painted it all and then decided to get creative. I had some white ikea shelves that needed tidying up so I cleaned them all up and then painted the back board of the shelf teal to match my colour scheme. Then I grabbed the wooden shelves painted them white and the back teal and now it all matches! 

This is one of the ikea shelves...




I'm really pleased with it and happy that now all my furniture matches and the colour scheme works. Makes my small office seem more spacious! Yay!

Riverbank Revels

Have you guys discovered Riverbank Revels? They're so cute! I'm thinking of using them to make dividers to decorate my filojournal. Everytime I go into the Range I stop to have a look at them!

Spontaneous fun!

Been on a spontaneous trip to London with a friend this weekend, it's been amazing! We were part of the audience on The Last Leg on the Friday night and then on Saturday we visited lots of shops we both love! We went to Paperchase, Artbox, Chinatown, various other arty places, the lego shop and Hamleys - so much fun!

I'd never been to half these places in London before. I love Paperchase but London Paperchase had 3 floors! We actually went twice in the 24hours we were there :p

I bought the stickers and the page clips at Paperchase and the notebook at Artbox.


and my first ever washi tape! I've been reading blogs and watching videos of people decorating their filos with washi tape and haven't worked out what I think about it so thought I'd give it a go!



We had an amazing time, chatting non-stop as normal and putting the world to rights! I told my mate about an idea I'd got for turning an A5 into a journal with a section for a gratitude journal, smashing, journaling, quotes, verses from the Bible etc. She said it sounded so cool she wanted one too. Think I'm going to have to work on her! Having mulled this idea over for weeks I may have to actually do it! I miss journalling and scrapbooking and this may be exactly what I need! Watch this space! :)
