Very Small Feet

If you are a friend and a reader you know that I love a subscription box. Like a lot! There have been good few I have already tired and wrote about and so here is a new one in series: Daria loves a subscription box. I don’t know if you seen the Boxcitement advert, basically it’s what it’s portmanteaus implies, a lovely gifts in a box via your postbox. Jewellery, stationary and suprises is what the website promises.  The Ausgust edition which I got is also donating money to marine conservation society. And after entering a code I will be getting a special mystery box.  So here it is! The packaging is cute and postbox friendly, so no trip to neighbors or post Office Depot!...  a little touch that what is in the box is actually hidden and there is a very cute illustration. Definitely pleasnet surprises and well thought about and executed!  However the content is a bit ... well alright I guess. I liked the note cards with different ...

I was very much looking forward to this week, this week I had shows to see.  Guilty feminist tickets were my birthday present last year! And hubby did good Look how close we were!  We sang, we “orgasmed” (you had to be there really) we also found out about local poet, and two amazing organisations for women. And we realised that Bristol feminists came out in force. And most of all we laughed so much! I think might have peed a little.  Also I am regretting not going to see Grace Petrie when she was playing a tiny venue in Cardiff. But I shall not make that mistake again!  Next day I went to see Scummy Mummies. These tickets I just had to get. I saw them last year with mother in law and it was very very good fun!  But this year I took a mummy friend from school. And we agreed that faces were hurting from laughting so much. I loved the new material! And that song if Cbbies were for adults ...  And extra bonus I discovered that Scummy ...

I always enjoyed making things... No matter what, earrings, clothes (skits and bags mainly), I'd like to think that I have this craftiness from my gran and perhaps mom. But mother mainly knits and crochets, I'm more of sewing and other DIY kind of gal.  So after watching tons of DIY videos on YouTube, I finally managed to learn about jump rings and now I can use them properly.  The cute poison bottles went to Sarah and I made little gun earrings which I gave to Rhian. However these skulls things, look a bit to white... Need some more work to them. Speaking of giving gifts, I also made a hair band for Rhian, since she is so fond of them. It was super easy to do... Ribbon came as a free gift with my Cloth Magazine . By the way this is one very inspirational mag, love it!   So measure your head, and mark the ribbon length accordingly. I left approximately an inch on each side, so I would have some space to make litt...

For Christmas since I have a been a really good girl this year I got Kindle Fire HD... How could I live without one before?! Thank you Santa and hubby for getting it to me:) And the free books one can get... I'm currently reading few things I would never actually get in the actual shop!  Alice in the Wonderland is waiting it's turn. I only read it in Russian before! Yes, we are all mad here!!

When I went to see my friend Charl  to model for her  she gave me leaving present.  I didn't know I had one:)  I love it! Husband loves it! These guys are just too cute!  Thank babes x So she did say that it would have been super cool to have one of them in 3D.... Well... Here to please really... So Charlotte when are we meeting next so I can give you this dude?  But then again, if there is something being made another hand-made thing is coming too... Took me absolute forever to remember how to do this, but I think results it great! Must make some more... Would you buy them? I think I can take my Esty shopping into selling... 

When I was little mum use to knit a lot of my clothes, I was head to toe in knitted goodies. People even used to joke that she knitted me too... Later she decided that knitting was boring and stopped... now she's crocheting like crazy. She made us a beautiful blanket to cover the bed... the only problem with it is the bright yellow colour... I never liked knitting, takes too long and looks so complicated, however I always wanted to learn... So I choose easier way of making something from yarn... crocheting! Last time I was off I made this blanket for us Hubby has some reservations against it... looks too much like a "Granny". Well yeah, it's a giant granny square! And it couldn't be easier to make!  This pattern is stolen  from here  but mother taught me how!  And now I finally finished the baby boy blanket... it took me so long to make, but it was so easy in the end when I got into my crocheting zone... I actually need to be in...

Remember how after my last race I was going to do lots of things, make stuff, tidy the flay and watch films... My plans were so exciting!  Well another epic fail!  Somehow that days just went away from me.  Me and my friend Owen went to the cinema and beer after.... We saw Lawless... Well he saw it again and me for the 1st time. Before you watch the trailer got to tell you its a bit... well graphic! It is a very very good film... But I don't think I will be watching it again. Too real! I like to think that the world is full of rainbows and unicorns! This was too real... It's like film with Casey Affleck (coincidently my favourite Affleck brother) Killer inside me. It is a very very good film but too graphic and too real.  Both of the films a must see... but just be prepared...  So after this I did not do much...  I was going to make a make-up bag for Dessy so she can stop walking around wit...

My hubby was out all day helping our friends Dickie and Karly moving house. I was stuck at home since I wasn't very well past few day... But  this blog  was super inspirational... So next thing I know I did this...  And then... I got the felt, made paper pattern and start hand stitching year and fox's face.... Dusted off my sewing machine and completed Mrs Fox! She us now living in Dicky and Karly's new place! I was actually sad to see her go. It was very quick.... finishing stitching the head and body together... skyping with mother. She said I should give Mrs Fox to her.... and then Dickie brought hubby back, fox was gifted and Dickie left.... Bye-bye Mrs Fox, you should look after Dickie and Karly now! Well she did make super cute intragram picture...

Well I have been asked few times at work to stay longer... Last time I was asked to stay "for a bit" a bit turned out to be extra 5hrs of work. So I jokey asked for a pair of Jimmy Choo  shoes .... Last week hubby called said that my lovely general manager Jamie  to ask if I can stay longer the next day. I said no. Then next day they both were asking me if I'd say at work longer... Well in the end I said yes... Next thing you know Jamie takes me outside and says "You know how I promise to get you a present?" and gives me tickets to see Mumford and Sons!! Yay! Best night ever! Pic quality is not great! But it was an amazing gig...Sigh no more they sang with no mics... St. Davids Hall has an amazing sound! Even my hubby who never heard about them enjoyed him self... But he did say that even with me bouncing up and down he could still see pass my head!

I do enjoy looking for presents... not done in the rush! My hubby's birthday is few months away and I'm already looking for presents... Found  this cool thing  on my favourite  Etsy . Don't think he has time to read me anyhow! On unrelated... I really enjoy my job! Hoping to get full time hours, so fingers crossed!
