What have i been up too...


So i haven't blogged for 4 months ! 

That is a rather long time. I'm scrolling, in my head, through all the things that have been going on in those 4 months & i can't comprehend that time period passing ! It's crazy how fast this year is progressing. 
Actually, i'm getting married in less than 6 months ! 

Since i've been absent, the main milestones have been: 
- M's brother got married 
- I got a new job in events 
- I discovered Netflix & 'Orange is the New Black. Obsessed ! 
- I started planning our Honeymoon to the West Coast of the USA 
- I attended my first dawn service 
- We had our engagement photo's done
- We saw Ed Sheeran
- I completed an InDesign course & began a Photoshop course 
- I threw my sister in law a kitchen tea 
- I've been working a second job doing catering, to help me with event experience 

I know i say this every time but i'm really keen to start blogging again ! 
I've felt a hollow lately, i often think of my blog & feel sad about it's state of neglect ! With my recent design course it’s sparked my interest in creating a beautiful digital space !

So this is my goal ! For now i will work on restarting my blogging, slowly but surely

Can’t wait to once again connect with you all

With These Hands


Recently i have been struggling for ideas of things to blog about, you might have noticed the lack of posts...it was really starting to worry me

That was until i came across 'With These Hands' 
A weekly blogging theme, based on DIY projects, created by Ash (of Miss Directions fame) & Rhi (creator of Vanilla Bliss), Sophia (the girl behind Je m'appelle Sophia) too




If you feel like joining in, let me know 

The Idea: A weekly theme, released on Fridays, to which we create something (with our hands). 

The Rules: (There aren't too many)
- No nail-art (because there plenty of girls out there who can do that better than us!)
- Anything else goes really, whether it's as simple as a drawing or as complicated as a quilt so long as you can make/create it and it fits the theme it counts.
- The project has to be started before the following Friday - but not completed if it's a big one
- We have to blog about the project (well duh!)

The Theme: They've picked an easy one for week one, Valentine day

So with that said, I have officially joined up with Ash, Rhi & Sophia
Look...i even have my own badge !!

I am so excited to show you all what i have planned ! 
This is going to be the fun-est kick start to blogging 

Love x
