Tuesday treats

The giveaway below really is getting some great interest which I cannot stop smiling over. I loved reading all your comments and I am thoroughly looking forward to announcing the winner on Saturday. If I could, I would totally give one starter kit away to each and every one of you as you seem like such keen knitters!

Onto other news, hello Tuesday treats!
So onto the topic of knitting, I thought I would bring to you all something on that same thing... knitting needle jewellery :D Yellow Bear Wares makes handmade jewellery from recycled vintage knitting needles with a lovely variety of colours to choose from.



This is such a fun and unique little craft that I really cannot get enough of all these creations. I also find the background props very fitting... they somehow make the items look even more cute! Eeee.

I must dash to have a quick nibble of some food and then head off to Bath so see some friends :) See you all tomorrow with some amazing goodies I was recently given, they are awesome!

A little recap.

I probably should try and get to sleep but I find the excitement of so many upcoming things getting the better of me. One of them being the new release of Animal Crossing tomorrow which I have started to get extremely excited about :D 

This may be quite a late post in terms of recapping on last month but I am going to go ahead and do it anyway. You know why? Because this year, May has been the best. I found myself meeting up a lot more with fellow friends and enjoying the start of my Summer holidays. I also handed in my last project for this academic year where I have been given the opportunity to work as an intern for Jenny Packham... yep, I am still currently in shock myself. So because of this exciting news mixed with some lovely weather, I really cannot help but smile. 









So as you can see there have been lots of happy memories on my phone from last month. First off being getting my lovely skirt from Vintage Style me which I am still completely in love with! As well as getting everything bought and prepared for the crafty blogger meet where I also made a few floral goodies. My studies have been super important to me towards the end of the month where me and Ben had a mountain of books from the library... all I can say is that they were crazy heavy. And then getting a little sweet treat from a fellow student who made adorable little cupcakes on our last day at College :) Oh, to only have another bite right this instant! ANNNND that last image is of a beetle I found when I was opening the gate to get my car out. Just wow. 

This month has already been off on a great start where me and Paige held our first blogger meet. Something that I will look back on and remind me of YES, I CAN DO IT! I also plan on spending a lot more time with my family this month and onwards down to the fact I have a lot of free time on my hands. This starts with a trip to Sheffield to see my Aunty, Uncle and Cousin who I haven't seen in over a year? Gosh, if it really is that long then I cannot wait to make up for this in the next couple of weeks :) 

P.s I am currently in the midst of getting Photoshop back on my new laptop so bare with my photos while I get this sorted. They are completely in their raw state, ahh!
