Home

Major apologies for the severe lack of blogging

Recently moved to Edinburgh

New city
New job
New life

Homesick

Returning home after finishing uni was like admitting defeat
Three years at home makes you proud of your heritage

Where do I belong?




Who knows



The plan:

AN INJECTION OF OPTIMISM
New year
New drive
New opportunities

ONE MONTH ONLY: FREE UK POST & PACKAGING

That's right....

My studio is currently stocked full and I end up feeling guilty when I make something new.

These items need to be seen and loved.  
And to celebrate their chance of a new home, I'm offering free UK P&P on my etsy.

Go on, have a look and share the joy.
Watch out for new items..it's taking some time.

Big Day


Brother's wedding tomorrow!
Finally all ready after mucho lastminute.com shopping for suits and sandals.
 Still no idea what to do with my hair. uh oh.



But...

Bruce and Jill loved their little extra gift. 
Hopefully Mrs Tweet & Mr Twoo will be just as happy as Mr & Mrs Gray.


Blogging and website updating will hopefully get into full swing after this weekend.
I've been on antibiotics so hello gin!

Cloud 9

I don't even know where to begin...


I'M ENGAGED!!!!!

Oh man, what a week.  
Went to Stonehaven on my day off with Luke which resulted with, out of the blue, being faced with a shiny ring at Donnatter Castle (in the pissing rain, haha).

As ever, the romantic.

I then had to go to work the next day and keep it quiet till family knew. 
I'm paid to talk..you may imagine the difficulty of this task!!!!
(got an engagement card from the lovelies at work..even signed by Ian, one of Chivas' brand ambassadors. Oh yeah. I hang out with the big wigs. Shame Colin Scott wasn't in that day. haha!)

I still constantly blush at any mention of it as I'm still in major shock.
Thank you so much to everyone for all your best wishes.



AND...

on top of this, I received the awesome news of the arrival of one of my best friend's little one.
Only a day late... he is as cute as his big sister.

Congratulations to Sayrah and Craig xxxxx

(I better get a move on with the pressie...was expecting a late arrival, whoops)

Wedding Gift

I am S.U.P.E.R. excited about my brother's wedding.


Dress is bought.
Avoiding shopping incase I see another one.
Days booked off work.

Feet are not prepared for heels.
But excited.




Decided to make a little gift for Bruce and Jill...
it is finished but you guys don't get to see until they do. 
If you know my work..you'd be able to guess easy.

I am totally chuffed with the result (which is very unlike me).

Flyboy


logo

 Just been looking through Flyboy's new website and I am so glad to have been part of this film production company in the early days whilst at University with John and Ailsa.  Hopefully my move to Edinburgh in a few months means I'll be able to help out in future productions (as I won't be hoooooours away up north).

Check them out here.

So proud of what they've all achieved in the last few years and miss freezing my toes off during filming.





I found a Stag.
