In my Wonderland..

Good Morning Starshine..

My Starshine wig, as worn in the park with my cute new sunglasses. I really hope this posts, cos I haven't been able to post any photos so far. :( yay! It worked! Hopefully the app will start working, and I'll be well away. That'd be nice.. 

Right, I said last time that my next wig would be vanilla and mint Icecream. I was half right.. I've ordered Vanilla.. And Galaxy. So pretty. <3

Wigging Out!



Hi. 
Again, long time no see! This is probably going to mark a change of direction for this blog, as I barely do any crafting any more. :( I'll still post when I do though. Anyway.. New Direction!

Wigs! And Lolita style, and punk, and music and dance and domestic bliss and stuff.. I am now the owner of three wigs, and they are rapidly becoming my babies. One is pink & blue with twin tails, the second is pink with white and the last is a long brown curly one with a fringe. They're all from Geisha Wigs (coffee cake, Baby and Starshine if you wondered!)
 Next on my wish list is Mint Icecream, and Vanilla! I always wanted to know what I look like blonde. Also, I'm in Calendar Girls in September and I fancy being blonde for that. I keep my clothes on (playing Elaine if you know the show) so no worry about people knowing I'm not a natural blonde! 
Just finished a production of Oliver! I played Widow Corney, it was my favourite role I've played, I actually got to sing solo in front of 400-odd people. Terrifying, but I'm so glad I've done it. :)  

For some unknown reason, I can't post any pictures on my iPad.. I don't know what it's doing. I'll show you when I've worked it out. :)

Christmas.. already?!

I'm getting a bit randomly excited about Christmas today. Me and Kirk started talking about how we're going to handle the various family commitments, balanced with our desire to have time together. We've already planned an activity for the first of December (which happens to be a Saturday) of friends, small amounts of alchol and mince pies and A Muppet Christmas Carol, which is a favourite for us both.

I'm quite excited about this. 

This will be my first Christmas in My Own Home. Mine. My choice of decorations, lots of baking, christmassy films and music. Won't be doing a christmas lunch this year though, that'll be with a family. But, I've got a pudding from last year, and several jars of amazing mincemeat.

P.S, sorry for any 'o' related typos.. the key's gone really stiff. Having to hld it really hard to make it work!

Hello! It's been a while, has it not? can't remember when I last posted, but essentially I got a boyfriend, got distracted and went a bit punk/goth.. Most of my craft stuff fell by the wayside. I now live with said boyfriend, and am still a bit more punk/goth than I was previously. BUT.. I've moved out of my parents, I have a space of my own which I can put my own stamp on, and I think maybe I should share some of this. It's not gonna be quite as crafty (although I still love my papercraft) and it might have occasional hints of naughtiness (much like me) but I shall try and keep these inoffensive.

Right! A couple of images (some edited with Instagram)



So, do feel free to say 'Hi', and I'll post (probably irregularly) on my house & home related antics! As well, as images of life out & about.
It's good to be back! x x x

T.G.I.F

I have a weekend off work. :-O


This is unheard of, and I sit here on the Friday evening giddily contemplating the three (YES, THREE!) days ahead of me. I have time to do many fabulous things.. tomorrow (Saturday) I have to do a little shopping, a little card making and attend a party in the evening. Sunday I plan to visit Snowdrop Valley, as we did last year and we're going out for lunch.. I will not be hungover. I've decided. Monday is going to be a day of blissful domesticity.. I hope, with much baking and crafty-ness to be undertaken.


On the subject of craftiness, I have a CUTTLEBUG! Those of a paper-crafting persuasion may well understand my excitement at this.. as yet I don't have enough dies to make it properly fabulous, but this is something to work on. :)


We need a photo now.. what've I got..

Something to make me think of the summer to come.. I am so looking forward to Summer! I'm one of those people who is always looking forward to the season to come, never enjoying the one we've got. There's not a great deal to enjoy outdoors right now. It's cold, and largely grey. Hopefully I can find some things to enjoy on Sunday. Pip Pip! xx

Oh, Bother.

Hmm.. I havn't quite managed to keep as up to date with posting as I intended. It always seems that other things happen, and I never have much interesting to say. Ho Hum.

Pantomime has been and gone, and it was F.A.B.U.L.O.U.S!!! I havn't had that much fun in a very long time, and I don't want to wait another year until the next one.. which is why I'll be back on stage in May, all being well for a production of High Society. I'll probably be in the chorus. Since the week of Panto I have acquired the Mother of all colds, coupled with a minor chest infection.. so tomorrows auditions could be a little interesting :S

Right.. we need a photo. Let's have a lookee..

Ahh, yes. Someone suggested posting the view from the kitchen window. As we don't have a window per se, this is taken from the back door. Yep, we have a building site literally on the other side of the fence. It will eventually be our towns new Medical Centre. Joyousness on all fronts. At least the tree is safe. And yes, our garden is very scruffy. :)

No crafting has happened lately, except I made coconut macaroons. They were yummy, and blue! But they didn't get photographed.. I shall photograph something more picturesque soon. Promise. And I'll tell you about it.
