Sunday Lazy Picks

Hello!

So today is Sunday and I am starting this new section in my blog whereby I select some pretty things I like. Today will be about things that I've had my eye on for a long time and that are on my list of purchases for when I am richer.

This first one is possibly the top of my list, they are lovely Mottled Brass Earrings  by Lila Ruby King.

Her things are amazing and she has been featured on etsy this weekend. You can see it here. What and honour! Congrats Anna!

I also love all of the Scandinavian Matryoshka Dolls by Ravenhill, but those colourful ones are one my very fave ones because they bring so much cheer and they are the cutest.

This is the Just a little boudoir mirror .... by Pamela Angus. This is very cute and almost irresistible. It is out of a fairy tale and very romantic with lovely soft colours and flowers, which are my favourite thing!

There are so many talented people out there creating really unique, beautiful stuff! It makes me happy to think there are people that are not affraid to use their imagination!
Well that's it for today, I hope you have enjoyed it!

Fairy Cakes

Mmmmmm these are some Fairy Cakes I made ages ago but that I remembered today while looking at my pictures. They were yummers and looked so cute in the cake stand. They didn't last long though there were a few of them. 

Swop Shop, Curved Street Cafe Market and Maybe TV3??

Hello!
Long time no posted, sniff sniff. But someone has to finish this bloody PhD and it better be me!

Anyway! Cool news, I am going to be selling some of my stuff at a Swop Shop in the Loft at the Powerscourt Center in Dublin and it's organised by Rough Gem "a new and vibrant collective, based in Dublin. Made up of bloggers, artists and musicians, it aims to bring fun and fancy to the Dublin arts scene"

On top of that at the end of the month (Nov 29th) there will be the usual Curved Street Cafe Market located on the first floor of Filmbase and this time there will be loads more stalls including things for the male couterparts! Will be posting the poster closer to the date!

Finally, I can't believe this! The stall-holders in the Curved Street Cafe Market will possibly set up the stalls in the studio of IRELAND AM in TV3 an Irish Television morning program! Exciting or what!!
We don't know it for sure bit fingers crossed!

I am on METRO

Oh my God, when Therese McKenna, the style writer from the Metro Dublin magazine contacted me asking if I would like to be featured I was ecstatic.

- Of course I want! I hasted to reply!

And the day has come, today I woke up early and on my way to work I picked up a copy of the METRO and there it was my face on the newspaper. How amazing! So far it has brought me 6 sales and I hope a bit of long term attention from local customers!

Anyway not only me was feature but also Bonzie, she makes truly amazing clothes.

Just take a look below!

Exploring

For the past few months I have been experimenting with new materials, new techniques and new products!!
Two of those are knitting, yes! I have finally mastered the knit and purl, knit and purl...and made various things one of them for sale on my etsy shop. This is my victorian-inspired cuff/handwarmer.



I have also designed some tank tops and tees here is my first:
