I’m going about this all wrong…
I’ve had a good think over the weekend and decided that this is no way to go about things. If something is troubling you or you’re not very well then you don’t give in, at least that’s what my mother always taught me! My mum is queen of the ‘pull yourself together’ life motto so [...]
Porter Brook Studios here I come…
I thought seeing as I had some good news today I might as well share it – it’s not often I can post about something positive recently! I got my studio acceptance email today and I’m well chuffed! Thanks to all those who wished me luck! xx

Guess what? My purse was chosen! I even spotted it on the homepage… Can you see me? Very tiny [...]
Pretty things…

I was so envious of all the beautiful things she has collected over the years. I collect a few things myself [...]
