lush

I love Lush products. Although I don’t actually own any yet!!
But I go into the shop and smell their soaps and float to heaven! I really want to buy Rock and Roll soap, also American Cream shampoo and a conditioner, and a face moisterizer. But I can see myself spending more in there definitely needs be!

Paul likes his bath bombs so maybe I’ll treat him to a couple or three.

My new thing at the moment is decorating boxes. I needed more storage in Emma’s room so I bought her a storage tower and then decorated the box it came in with Peppa Pig wrapping paper, so now she has a big box for her big toys :-)

Also, I’ve been working on “Photo frames” they’re not actually photo frames, they’re just the cardboard borders you get to place infront of a photo to give it a boarder… but anyways, I’m buying some cheapy ones from wilkinson and decorating them to use as photo frames. I rent my house privately and I don’t think the landlord really wants me putting a gazillion holes in his house so I’ll just use these boarders, blue tac my pics to them and then blue tac them to walls :)

Of course, you do run the risk of having that awful blue tac stain- but what parent doesn’t want pictures of both their children around their house [currently, theres only picture of Emma and not Holly!]- however “thankfully” emma has already drawn on some of the walls and they were really dirty when we moved in so we plan on repainting when we eventually move out.

painting

so I decided to get backinto painting. Art runs in my family. My mum, dad and brother are all great drawers with each unique individuality. M brother paints, he’s great at adding depth to a picture with shadows- something that isnt a good strong point on me haha!

I grew up watching Disney classics, so i would, and still do, base human faces to those of the films. But over I have been trying to find my own style… turns out that i dont have one lol!

but ive gotten into acrylic painting, just messing around with it really and really enjoying it.
