New bling in the shop.



I love me some bracelets! These are my first batch of gold bracelets, made for the slightly kitsch, quirkiness within. I have been so busy in the shop lately, and swamped with endless tasks for uni! I have also been listing a few ideas for a DIY that I will be doing from tomorrow! 

As a student on a budget, I feel that it would be a great idea to show you how I save money and create such  great things that I hope you will enjoy. I will also be bringing back the much love mondays feature, so I'll be scheduling some posts to keep all you lovelies entertained.

Now, I'm off to eat some dinner- maybe some McDonalds, as there isn't much to eat in the house till tomorrow, which is a shame cos I went to the gym today as well!

Shop Updates//A DIY coming up.

Good Afternoon, Lovelies!

I have been so busy with life lately, I'm slowly becoming more organised with everything... but I still need to go to the gym- I've missed going there lately, and I feel that without going to the gym, my mood is just not as high as I'd like. Also, I seem to have put on all the weight that I lost in the past month, and I do NOT want to become a couch potato again! So as of tomorrow, I will get my bike fixed and get back into a workout regime, and maybe eat healthily as well! :)

Anyway, I have made some lovely new backpacks and bracelets for the shop. I got really excited with the drill I got for my birthday and my fabric box was overflowing with scrap fabric, so I got creative, and here is what is for sale:

Whimsical Backpacks




I made myself a backpack as well, and everyone I showed it to liked it, especially because it is handmade and one of a kind! I will definately be making more as soon as I can!

Button Charm Bracelet




I loved making these, they are a bunch of great pieces to wear... I love how you can just rock it with just about any quirky outfit, day or night! If you are one of those people who don't like to overdress but love having such great accessories, these are for you! This makes your outfit that much better because it is unique and no one else you know is going to have the same piece- EVER! :)


Do you like this? This is made simply from gems, glue gun, a large button, and a ring base. I was going to do a DIY video, but again, I'm so shy, so I'm going to do one through photos, which I hope you would be able to follow!

My week of shenanigans.

Hello!
New boxes for my studio re-organization 😃 (Taken with instagram)My initials! :) (Taken with instagram)
My recycled bag! :) it’s now a clutch bag as the handles are really worn out! Lol (Taken with instagram)Me loves my bendy straw from uni… Enjoying lazy day number 2 :) (Taken with instagram)
Seahorses! :) (Taken with instagram)Created this all through blowing into a straw… I’m quite breathless now! Lol (Taken with instagram)
My limited range of earrings that will be in the shop very shortly! :) (Taken with instagram)

I have missed writing such awesome blog posts lately! I think I haven't been as organised as I would like to be. I think it's just because I'm just really overwhelmed in life lately... I have done to-do lists, diaries and everything but I sometimes forget to use them daily...  So I've decided that I am just going to use my iPhone, as it's the one thing that is going to make me remember things. I don't particularly like relying in technology to organise my life, but it's gotta be done. :) 

I did take a few days break from Uni for my poor back to recover a bit, and just to really refocus my ideas for my dissertation as well as studio work, and now I'm so eager and ready to do a lot more things and get as much of a higher mark as possible!

Card windings for weave- I love this part :) (Taken with instagram)Got my weave onnnnnn :) loving it! (Taken with instagram)

I'm currently working on a collection at Uni, inspired by sea horses. I'm hoping to create a fashion piece, which is also inspired by my current fave designers; Basso and Brooke, Acne and Aquascutum. 

I have just listed a few more button earrings in the shop, so enjoy them! :). 

I hope that when I become more organised, I would be able to blog more and create more clothing for everyone to buy! I'm currently thinking up a new shop altogether in addition to my shop right now, actually, but more on that one another time when I have things under wraps.
