Doodles

Nothing on tv....no plans......



.....pass me the sharpie!

I have always loved a doodle and am totally into turning things into something different and a last weekday evening is the perfect time to do this....! :)

Interior Inspiration | Bathroom

A girls grooming room.....

....needs to look as good as she does!

I think that sometimes bathrooms are the one room that can get a little neglected when it goes to doing something a little bit different or putting our own spin on it.....feature walls aren't just for bedrooms and living rooms people.

I love the idea of having a quirky bathroom.....wallpapering with old maps or vintage music paper etc. Having quirky storage (another blog post coming on this), and accessorising with pants and vintage item.....oh the possibilities.

Monochrome | Nails

No grey areas.....

.....it's all very black and white.

Have been experimenting with this years prominent trend....monochrome....and enjoying it.

I have used nails inc. in black and a Rimmel nail tip whitner for the white. For the delicate details I have used WAH nail pens, but have also discovered that you can use a marker pen or even a liquid eye liner to do the more delicate parts which is so much easier....just make sure that you use a top coat to make sure that it locks it in place.

Crafty arty week

Whoop whoop it's easter......this means 2weeks off!!! What am I going to do with all that time......?? Hmmmmm...!!?

3. Makes little paper star to pass the time away

4. Colouring in can be so therapeutic-no going outside the lines!

5. More easter inspired art

Future thinking

Home is......

my ideal home

......where the heart is....! I love home interiors and most of my time that I spend on Pinterest is looking at my dream interiors and ideas for my dream (and I really do mean dream) home.

My love of interiors got me thinking and about a year ago I embarked on an interior design course with the regent academy in London. This is a distance learning course, which for a normally unmotivated person such as myself is a bit of a challenge. I started of pretty well, very enthusiastic and sending away an assignment every couple of weeks......unfortunately my motivation (not my enthusiasm, I hasten to add) has some what dwindled in recent months and its DEFO time started to pull my finger out again. This 'pulling of finger' came in the shape of signing up for another interior design course at a local college in my area (not quite solving my problem but none the less I am enjoying).

My dream job would to be to work in interior design.....hint hint anyone out there :).....so this, I am hoping, is a step in the right interior direction. Until then I will fill my days with coming up with ideas for my dream house, reading interior blogs and perusing through beautiful images on Pinterest.
