Quote of the Week- Roald Dahl

Hello everyone,

How are you all ? Hope that you have had a lovely weekend :).

Thought this week to start the week I would share a quote from one of my favourite authors of all time....the rather wonderful Roald Dahl. Did anyone else spend their childhood reading his books?......actually.....silly question.....EVERYONE spent their childhood reading his books!!! This quote made me smile today so I thought it was the perfect one to share.

And above all, watch with glittering eyes the whole world around you because the greatest secrets are always hidden in the most unlikely places. Those who don't believe in magic will never find it.” 

― Roald Dahl

Have a great week everyone :)

P.S - What is your favourite Roald Dahl book?

Summer is here!!

Hello everyone :),

How are you all? I hope that you have been enjoying the sunshine. Hasn't it been beautiful?! I have been sat out in the garden making lots of earrings and photographing some new bits and bobs for my shop. I have had such a lovely day. My freckles have seen the sun and have come out like crazy hehe :) ! Anyone elses done the same?! I am so excited about summer, can't believe it is June and summer is finally here. It is my favourite time of the year.

Trying to list lots of new items in my shop and yesterday I listed some little watermelon earrings. Today I was really thrilled as they got featured in the most beautiful summer treasury by a lady called Kate who is from Gloucester. So happy that my earrings have already been featured in a treasury and such a beautiful one as well. Big thank you to Kate for featuring me. Please be sure to take a look at her shop, she has some lovely things.

Thought I would share the treasury with you all so that you can all enjoy it. Doesn't it just make you want to go on a summer picnic!?

What I have been working on today

Hello everyone :-),

Thought I would share with you all what I have been working on today. I have been rather busy making some new fruit earrings. There are all different kinds; watermelon, grapes, apples, grapefruit etc and then I put them onto my stand that I bought for my craft fairs :) What do you think? My favourite ones are the watermelon slices I think. I have also been loading some new items onto my shop

Wordless Wednesday- Sunset over Brighton

On Wednesdays all over the internet, bloggers post a photograph with no words to explain it on their blog. Hence the ‘wordless’ title. The idea is that the photo itself says so much that it doesn’t need any description.

Hope you enjoyed this week's Wordless Wednesday. If you enjoy reading my blog I would love to hear from you, please leave a comment in the comment section below, it will make me smile :) !
