treat yourself {discount code}
A while ago I did just that and got myself some sweet earrings with a very unique back, it's been a couple of months and I can tell you I only love them more!
JewelleryBox carry these fabulous studs that have an Andralok closure. It's so ingenious, making it incredible easy to put the earrings in and they stay put. I find the normal butterfly backs fiddly but the thing that annoys me most is I always seem to catch them and pull them out. The Andralok fastening makes the earrings so comfortable, I even sleep with them in and don't feel a thing.
With prices starting at £5 they are so reasonable priced. I honestly can't recommend them highly enough. You also get free UK postage with orders over £10! It all comes so cutely packaged too:
JewelleryBox also has more than just these fabulous earrings, I got this adorable Sterling Silver Origami Crane Pendant Necklace:
It was hard to take a picture of and it's SO pretty in real life, to do it justice here is the website photo too. The necklace is £7.50 - £9 depending on the length of chain you want. Yes, that's right, you get a choice! JewelleryBox know how to do it right!
Here are some more things that take my fancy from JewelleryBox:
Sterling Silver Winged Keepsake Locket; Designosaur Toucan Acrylic Necklace; 9ct White Gold 25mm Sparkle Twist Creole Earrings and Andralok 9ct Yellow Gold Clear Crystal Small Faceted Stud Earrings
I'm thrilled to be able share a discount code with you. JewelleryBox know I love their products and hope you do too, so they are giving you all a 10% discount with the code charmaboutyou - just enter it at the checkout! The code is valid until the end of August 2015.
Go ahead and treat yourself :)
working on it
I feel like I'm working on a lot of stuff right now, not just quilty or sewing projects but my life and myself. Paying attention to what I want to do and what I need. Going through hard times and determined not to let them get the better of me - literally. Trying to not even make the most of things but make the best. I'm a work in progress too.
Anyway no time for philosophy, there's crafty work to be done and my mojo is gaining momentum. Here's what I've been up to...
I was very excited to see my Hanging Triangles Bag in Quilt Now (Issue 4) - this is my first published project and seeing myself in a magazine was all kinds of funny!! If anyone makes one I would absolutely love to see it!
This is the same as the buggy bag I made a while ago, and we use it everyday!
I totally have a thing for zip bags (or maybe quick finishes?!) because I knocked up a couple more using a couple of mini charm packs. One is Caroline Friendlander's Favorites, mixed with a little Best Day Ever by April Rosenthal, and this is already stuffed full of my stuff :)
I did simple straight line quilting because it just looks so clean and pretty
I used the rest of the Best Day Ever mini charms to make another little bag, fun and girly:
I've been cracking on with my le challenge project, obviously I chose cross stitch for the X theme...
but sadly it hasn't all gone well and, despite me usually recognising mistakes quickly or being able to fudge them, this time there was serious unpicking required:
I will press on though and hopefully get it finished in time for the le challenge link on November 15th. Oh and you must go and read the guest post by Mr X Stitch, very interesting read and it totally motivated me!
I treated myself to some cute little bow earrings this week, from BK & JIO. Quick delivery and super sweet packaging. If you're looking for gifts, they have a gorgeous selection - perfect for all ages and you can get 15% off orders over $20 until 14th November using code HOLIDAY2014. (Not sponsored in any way just sharing the joy because I love the earrings I bought!)
And finally, since it's the half term holidays here, most of my time is being spent doing stuff like this:
Fun and games!
