Free Jewellery! Come get it!

Since winter is my favourite time of year, I am celebrating the return of the winter coat with a series of weekly giveaways, where some lucky Facebook friend of mine will win a faaaaabulous brooch.  This week I gave away this bluetit brooch:



Next week I am giving away this rabbit brooch: 



And after that, who knows?  Maybe this one, it's an art deco greyhound brooch, and one of my all time favourites.



All you have to do is like my Facebook page, and comment! Good luck.

My daddy wouldn't buy me a pony

So I am making them and selling them to other girls who weren't allowed ponies when they were thirteen.  And do you know, they're going down a treat! All available from silkpursesowsear.com

Elvis & Brussels Sprouts

Celebrating the lush verdant work of my Folksy friends this week.  We have an ace brussels sprouts botanical print, a fantastic notebook made from an old bingo book, and my favourite has to be It's The Little Things Elvis Domino brooch.  I have slotted one of my own brooches (seashell botanical) somewhat incongruously at the bottom, but it's my blog and I'll be incongruous if I want to.

If All Saints were a man I would marry him

To celebrate the acquisition of one splendid Stallion Yavhi Dress half price in the All Saints sale, I have decided to show you all just a very few of the dresses I covet from there.  If I ever get married (which I probably won't) I am going to rock it in this dress and some turquoise shoes.  God, I love clothes.

Peep Show

I have been a very naughty, lazy blogger for the past few weeks, but I have been busy making lots of lovely new things.  I haven't listed these yet, but they will be coming soon to my shop...

Scaring the Bejeezus out of Me...

It's Royal Wedding Day.  What that means for me is my boyfriend is home for the day, when he's usually at work.  We're drinking coffee and eating toast while I search for creepy stuff on the internet.  And not a union jack or Keep Calm and Carry On cushion in sight.

I like you back.

So after doing a sum where I worked out I now have over 250 'likes' for my shop on Folksy (though never was too hot on my twelve times table) I had a nose through all the shops and sellers who like me... Here's some particularly fabulous stuff I found.

Play Time




It's Friday, it's Easter Friday, I am going to eat about a bazillion easter eggs this weekend and spoil my appetite. Then I am going to drink a bottle of red wine and scribble with crayons all over the sofa. Because I'm an adult, and there's no one to tell me I can't. 

Here are some toys from my folksy friends.
