Falconwright - The Greatest Clutches On Earth!

Like I said in my last post, I've been pretty ill the past week, I'm not entirely sure what is up, I have all the flu symptoms only without the mucus. Gross - I'm sorry.

Anyway to cheer myself up when I'm not sleeping I've been oogling pretty clutch bags from Falconwright. 

Falconwright is a handmade and hand-screen printed two-woman company based in Toronto. Sandi (see her amazing illustrations here) and Danielle (who sell beautiful jewelry here) are both incredibly talented in their own right but come together to create something special. They use their own designs and prints to create these gorgeous clutches, card holders and mini-pouches.

I've chosen my favourites to show off here and it was really hard to not add it all:

Witchboard Ouija Print Clutch
I LOVE this!

Ghost Print Mini-Pouch
Because everyday is Halloween!

Zodiac Print Clutch.
I'm obsessed with Zodiac symbols and this is amazing!

Snake Mini-Pouch.
There is something about the way this print sits and the gorgeous yellow that I am in love with.

Cactus Clutch.
This is my other fave actually available on ASOS (as is the Ouija print and Zodiac print.).

So what do you think of these beauties? I feel like these ladies have incorporated everything I love and put them onto cute clutches!

I'm back off to lay on the sofa and re-watch the American Office on Netflix.

Peace

Make Your Own Terrarium.

Hello!

You may remember in a recent post of mine where I featured Urban Outfitters Grow collection that I featured the cutie Make Your Own Terrarium kits.

Last week UO had a 25% discount code over the weekend which I took full advantage of and bought myself this little beaut:

Make Your Own Terrarium - Deer.

Here is what you get in your mason jar:

Pebbles, moss, a flower, a mushroom and a plastic deer.

You have to add your own plant and soil. I was going to add a cute plant however I know that I don't get much sunlight in my flat so had to have a low maintenance plant and what better than a cactus?! (p.s you can check out my cacti collection here...)

Then it was just a case of arranging the props, here is the finished thing:

He is so cute there! I adore the tiny mushroom it's perfect.
I've place my first terrarium proudly on my living room table with my other cacti and miscellaneous items.

Hope you are having a great week! I've been a little under the weather but a few days of rest and I should be ok again :)

Urban Grow.

Good Evening! 

Today I want to share some little gems I've come across via the Urban Outfitters homeware section as part of Urban Grow which is all about indoor gardening (my fave): 

Large Cactus Planter.
Everything about this is perfect! I love how huge it is and how it fits thin plants in it looks awesome.

Cat Strawberry Planter.
This is probably my favourite thing in the world ever, you fill the cup with water and the fabric tail soaks up water to feed the Strawberry plant in the kitty's backpack :')

Dolphin Watering Can.
This is so fun! There is also a duck, pig, hippo and poodle!

Lavender Egg Planter.
This cutie egg also comes in Mint and a Cactus. You simply crack the eggs top, water and wait for it to grow. I love the smell of Lavender ♥!

Make Your Own Terrarium.
This is so so perfect! A mini terrarium. I love this little deer version. 

Two-Tone Planter.
This huge gorgeous planter would look amazing in a corner of a room. 

Diamond Terrarium.
I'd love this huge terrarium - I'd do it up so well ;)

What do you think? I lovee home-plant accessories! With this weather its so hard to get out into the garden to do anything and as soon as it rains the weeds just grow up again! Hopefully next time I move I will have loads of natural light (my biggest issue at the moment!) so I can have tons and tons of indoor plants! 

Hope your weekend has gone well, I've literally spend it doing NOTHING!

September Round-Up

Autumn is in full swing now and I love it!

Here is a roundup of my September and what's to come in October: 

My boss-eyed buddy has been sitting in the bath with me again. I love his little face so much!

I love this ugly fish transfer tattoo (I almost wish he was real) which I was sent along with a few other cool designs from Fickle Tattoos.

A few new home additions.
The butterfly/moth ceramic coasters (I mentioned them here) from my Auntie, A cactus letter holder from my Mumma and a cute little trinket box c/o Casey English.

I re-did my pink and purple hair.

I was asked if I had any festive baking tips for Rodda's to feature on their packaging leading upto Christmas. I gave them a tip and they decided to use it! I got this amazing package as a thankyou and my tip is in-stores now! I really hope I find it on the shelves!
The pack included clotted cream and Cornish butter but obviously they went right to the fridge.

I got a pin-board for a bargainous £3 in WHSmiths. I added some mermaid looking sequins and some cute patterned fabric as a border to jolly it up a bit.  

October is right here and it is my faveourite month! I will be decorating the house in a Halloween theme and also have lots of Halloween DIY's and outfit posts at the ready!

Hope September has been awesome for you!

August In Review

September is definitely my fave month, the tree's start turning, it gets a little colder but the sun shines on and Autumn kicks off. 

Here is a re-cap of my August:

Space Girl Bath Bomb - LUSH £2.25
Moving into my new house mean't I had a bath that only me and Ross used and I decided to treat myself to my FIRST EVER Lush Bath Bomb (I know right!)

I had so much fun in purple, glittery water - I even made up a song and Prince joined me - see the video HERE.

Prince turned 1! The post for that is HERE, it's full of pictures and our little story. This is the latest picture I have of him.

Ross's Birthday.
We went for a meal in Chapel 1877. The food was great, we sat in what I can only describe as a confession booth.

DIY Pressed Flower Sunglasses.
I made a DIY for these cute little pressed flower sunnies, it's super easy to do and so personalised! 

I went to see the band Merchandise. You can check them out HERE - they were rad. 

My cactus collection grew. 

I got these two awesome pin-badges for £1!

Well that was my highlights from August, so far September has treated me well with shopping and nature surprises which I will share with you as soon as :)

Hope you had a great August!

My Cactus Collection.

I have internet! Woohoo! It was a long old weekend without it :p

I thought today, seeing as my whole life is still in boxes/between houses (today I had to walk to work in an oversized cardigan and leggings as I left all my clothes in the old house :'( ) I would share with you one of the loves in my life - my Cactus/Cacti collection! 

I love them! They come in all sorts of shapes and sizes - I even have a tattoo of a Catctus on my leg (you can see it at the bottom of the post or HERE) I've been learning alot about them and how to take care of them and what the different types are called. I found an awesome book on them in a charity shop which has been really useful.

 So, here they are:

When this one bloomed I almost wept with joy!

I stuck a birds skull that I had cleaned up in this one to give it that old desert feel.

Heres my a picture of my tattoo from right when I had it done, the colour has come out alot better since it's healed:

And for added house-plant greatness - my Venus Flytrap!

Do you like plants? What if your favourite type?

July Roundup

July was a pretty crazy month!

It kicked off with a mad weekend in London for my housemates birthday, a whole bunch of my pals came up and we all stayed in the same hotel. We ended up at an Industrial Goth night in Camden - it was mental. I've never had so much fun! 

The there was the crazy heat-wave we had here in the UK, 3 weeks of sunshine was brilliant plus I got myself a little tan ;) 

Here are some other things that have kept me smiling in July:

Tentative Decisions Bullet Necklaces
I was gifted these by Tentative Decisions and haven't stopped wearing them! They are also my blog sponsors for August so check out their site :)

Rainbow Lightbulb!
I got this from dotcomgiftshop - I love it so much! My whole room is a rainbow!

I added 4 more cacti to my terrarium! 

Me, Ross and Prince went back down to Devon for the weekend.

We took a trip to Buckfast Abbey (home of the famous drink) it was so beautiful!

My mum bought me this amazing teapot for my new flat.

I've been reading loads this July I will do a separate post on the books I've bought (there are SO many)!

Don't forget to follow my Instagram for more up to date pictures of what I'm getting upto :)

What was the best thing about your July?
