Jewelry Organiser

Happy Sunday my lovelies.

My jewelry needed serious sorting out. I don't wear as much jewelry as I used to so it was a bit like a treasure hunt for me trying to find missing earring pieces in my house. I still haven't found some of them!

I used my old inspiration board for this project as I couldn't find the right frames for it yet. Please see this post. I am happy how it turned out. It's so neat!

I am a happy bunny.

Yesterday was a really lovely day. The sun was shining brightly (it's been so dreary the last week or so) and of course it would've been such a waste if I stayed at home. I headed off to my favourite cafe and met some really lovely people who were part of the Birmingham loves Photographers society. I was approached by a man who had taken my picture back in December when I was roaming the German Market and he asked if he could take more pictures. And so we did. I'll post it up as soon as I get them!

I know I promised a diy project that involved my rings. Unfortunately it didn't turn out well so I am going to leave it for now but do not fret my sweets! I have been busy sewing and altering a skirt that I have. Very excited on how it turned out and will be sharing it with you in the next few days so stay tuned!

Hope everyone is enjoying their weekend xx

my diy necklace

hello there lovelies,

thank you so much for the lovely comments. I am feeling heaps better now.  I realise there is no point in moping around feeling sorry for myself. I should just get my life back on track. I admit watching Bridesmaids have something to do with it. If you haven't watched it, do it. It's hilarious!

I decided to be more productive and got my jewelry kit out and started making the diy geometric necklace i talked about before.

Instead of long tubular gold beads, I used short white ones. I like it but I might spray paint it a different colour. Neon perhaps? We'll see.

I apologise for the poor quality of the photos. My webcam is a bit rubbish.

Today my necklace and I went to IKEA for a couple of hours and all we got was a measuring tape which costed 29p. Money well spent I thought! I was slightly embarrassed when I went to the cashier though but the guy was nice and very professional. Didn't get any odd looks from him at all.

We are gonna have homemade pizza for dinner today. When I say we, I mean Stuart and I. Not my necklace. It's main purpose in life is to hang around my neck and make me look pretty. That's all. Oh and sometimes for an all night girl talk session.

diy jewelry storage

I always have a problem with storing jewelry. The jewelry stands are never big enough to hang my long and chunky necklaces or there are never enough space to store all of them so when i saw this diy on pintrest I was sold!

I love the mini earrings assemble. I am always losing my earrings so this is perfect!

It's such a clever way to organise your jewelry and very easy too!

the new year is approaching fast and i need to rack my brain and think about new year resolutions. I've got a few goals I would like to achieve. And one of them is to actually keep new year resolutions!

Planning on going to the shops today to buy last minute presents for my trip to Cornwall and perhaps get some nice frames in the sales for this delightful project too.

Have you thought of your new year resolutions yet?

DIY Geometric Necklace

i saw this fantastic DIY on this awesome blog and just had to share it.

Gold is one of my favourite colours and I also love funky shaped necklaces as you can see from my old posts. So this is absolutely perfect for me!

I will definitely be making these soon.
