Things are getting busy round here, my calendar is more full than ever, that's weird for someone who needs to spend a lot of time doing nothing! I'm enjoying not watching TV so far, I barely miss it (except the new series of Mad Men, of course). I've been listening to a ton of music and podcasts and doing some embroidery, fun stuff.
I missed a WWW or two so this isn't all from this week, it's all stuff I've been loving though.
I must start with the Gocco Workshop Xtina Lamb of Printed Wonders is running. I did one of her workshops this time last year and it was so, so good. Read about my experience here if you want to see what it's about.
Totally love this mug holder spoon thing (technical term) DIY from Grrfeisty.
I think this is an important read, on not saying sorry for who you are, by Gala Darling.
The way Rachel (Smile & Wave) transformed part of her basement into a dressing room is inspired, I think we can all learn a thing or two from her. It will certainly help me to look at how I utilise space and how even the ugliest of rooms can be made pretty with some imagination (and a vintage sheet or two).
I want this Cath Kidston Diamond Jubilee bag, and I want it bad. But I Must. Not. Buy. Anything. It's only £6, but really I mustn't buy ANYTHING.
That mug wall is a fantastic idea, I might have to do something similar when we eventually redecorate the kitchen (my mug collection is getting out of hand again...).
Thanks for the heads up on the Gocco workshop, have booked my place and am looking forward to it :)
