Fantasy Film Flower Ring
Remember how Beads Unlimited sent me a box of crafty things to play with a few weeks ago? I came up with a how-to for a Fantasy Film Flower Ring, which looks a bit like stained glass.

Shake It Up
After work today we headed to Westfield. We then headed to Camden where we took minature-style photos. It looks so cute, like a toy-set complete with miniature drug dealers and punks.

New Camera
My new Canon camera arrived today. It has a wide-angle lense, so all my photos will be 16:9. Tom's also been teaching me how to play my new bass.

Old Orleans
We started our adventure today with some chips from Mr Fish in Queen’s Park, which Mitch had told us were the best chip shop in London. They were very good and I managed to nab 20 chip forks so I c...

DIY Shoe Box Polaroids
We’ve been doing lots of de-cluttering and I finally organised my shoes with DIY Polaroid Shoe Boxes. Because the film is so expensive, I came up with a super cheap DIY solution. I can’t tell you ...

Owl Cushions
I sewed a flock of Owl Cushions. I don't really want to have any cushions I haven’t made (apart from the awesome tube fabric one). The owls were made out of two tweed skirts and pieces of Liberty p...
