Delightful Desktop Fun | Martha Stewart

Hello lovely people!

Sorry I haven't posted for a few days, I had a very busy weekend with family events!

I'm one of those annoying people that likes her room to look spotless - ALL the time. I get a little obsessed. I just can't bare walking into a messy room, with an Un-made bed, things on the floor and the side. Sfnsfnslgnslkngois - thats how it makes me feel....

So, yesterday my Mum and I went to Staples as we had to get work bits, so I dived straight into the gorrrrgeous Martha Stewart Section!! Yes, i'm one of those weirdo's that loves the little things in life like, stationary... After watching Louise from Sprinkle Of Glitter's (make sure you watch, she is fabulous!) Vlog on her 'Stationary Haul' I have wanted to go to Staples for a little look round.

I wanted to buy the whole collection but I controlled myself and went for one desktop divider and one of her lovely note pads. Oh and some pretty coloured pens :) I love the Desktop divider, it's fab - and allows me to stack my notepads, and as you can see in the photo a Magazine - this was just lying on my desk, so it now has a place! It can also hold my diary, business cards and of course, my new pens! When my business hopefully develops and I get a bigger desk, I will definitely be buying more of these as they stack on top of each other, so you can just add, add, add - how fab! 

  

I hope you like the photos - oh and isn't the colour and texture beautiful?! 

Thank you for reading!

Recent Buys.

As it is pouring with rain, I thought I would start on a little post. These are probably my three favourite things at the moment! 

Ok,  as you will know if you read my first blog post Snippets Of My Summer I went to Portugal. Now, I don't know about you, but every time I go away, especially to foreign countries, I love finding new bits of jewellery. These usually tend to be rings and bracelets. However this year I found these two necklaces which I just love. 

The first one (that intertwines) was from a Harbour we went to. It's a gorgeous place and has lots of shops, bars and restaurants around it. I came across a little shop set back from the rest that was just full of necklaces and bracelets, it was gorgeous, there were so many different colours crammed into this one tiny shop. But this one caught my eye the most. I don't usually go for this sort of thing, but I am so glad I tried it on. This was 10 Euros, which could sound like a lot, but it was worth every cent! I wore it a lot in the evenings, and found it really dressed my outfits up. However it can also be worn casually, like in the photo above.

The second necklace which I also love was from a flea market. It was huge, with so many stalls. Most of the jewellery stalls always seemed to have the same sort of style on them. But again, this one caught my eye, and can you believe it was only 3 Euros!? I was a happy girl! Again, it can be worn smart or casually.

Lastly, this lovely little candle. I'm really loving candles at the moment, especially now the weather is changing. They can really warm a room up. I love the detail around the actual holder, it really lets the light shine through it as well. My favourite bit of it is the little pearls, I think they are so cute and pretty and they fit right in with my bed room. This was only £2.99 from a local Garden Centre. I was shocked at the price, so I picked it up straight away :) 

Have a gorgeous weekend :)

Snippets of my summer | Iphonography

Soo, this is my first post, so if you are reading - thank you! I thought I would start of my posting some snap shots of my summer. I had SO many photos on my phone, this is just a small selection...

I had a wonderful summer, and was lucky enough to go back to my favourite place as a child, Cornwall. It was a real trip down memory lane for my family and I as we used to go there every single summer for the same 2 weeks each year! It's amazing how many tiny details of a place you can remember, and how they form your memories. We even sang 'I see the sea the sea see's me' as we drove down the hill to the hotel (I know I know, but it's a family tradition!) Needless to say, I had the most amazing time re-living my child hood holiday, and made more memories to add to my collection. I was then super lucky to go to sunnier climates in Portugal with my family. It was so nice to get away with them and my boyfriend, and again, had a wonderful time!

What did you all do? I would love to know :) 

Here are just a few snaps - I hope you like them!

Thank you for reading!
