Hello 2017!

It's been a while since I updated the blog, I know. But boy did the end of 2016 get a little crazy! I'm not going to blab on about what's new, what's been happening, and all that jazz, as I did a video a week or so ago explaining most of that! So if you missed that, you can take a look below:

An update I didn't mention... I have recently changed all my social media profile photo's. I'd had the one of me wearing glasses for quite a while and thought it was about time for an update..

Funny story, my new profile photos weren't taken intentionally for that purpose. I had a phone interview for a BBC article about stationery, and they'd asked for a photo of me 'doing my thing' so I roped Jack in to get some photos. The editor ended up cutting my section out of the piece, so I wasn't featured in the end, but hey! That's how things sometimes roll, and at least I got a new profile photo out of it.

As for content on the blog, I'm hoping to get things back on track from now on. Since moving, I have so much more growing room regarding my crafting, not just the fact that I've got more space to buy more stuff *evil laugh*, but I've got more time to get on with things, and really make the most of my channel, my crafting, and my job! I love what I do and I'm looking forward to fully embracing it in 2017!

Just a few things I hope to achieve in 2017...

• Finish getting my office & creative space organised!
• Get a routine in place regarding my self employment & job.
• Finally bring Saffy home (That beautiful little blue bird you may have seen in some vlogs).
• Find a new furry family member!!
• Meet as many creatives as possible, whether that's at big events or little meet ups.
• Start on the DIY homewares list I've got, and add some personal touches to the house.

I hope the start of your 2017 has been lovely! If it's not, then at least you have 11 more months to get it where you want it! - FYI mine started with catching up on 2016 jobs still & a stinking cold, so I'll be in the 11 months category haha!!

Design Team Intro & September Happy Mail Brimbles Box!

(My desk, ft. my boyfriend on my desktop! Check out my intro on Mrs B's blog for more exclusive snaps! X)

So first of all, I wanted to take the time to announce/celebrate being chosen to be a part of the Mrs Brimbles Design Team! Excited is most definitely an understatement!

I know it's been a few weeks since the Design Team was announced, but I've not yet had a chance to mention it on here, so I thought it was about time!

If you would like to have a read of my official introduction then take a nosey over on Anna's blog, by clicking here.

Since I'm on the Design Team, I will be sharing lots of fun projects, stationery goodies and unboxings on here and on my YouTube channel!

I've always loved the products Anna sells and the boxes she puts together, so I'm really happy to be working with her and the other wonderful ladies on the team!

I thought I'd share a couple of snaps of this months Happy Mail Brimbles Box! 

The Brimbles box is a stationery/planner/happy mail subscription service (though you can buy an individual box if you like), this means you get a box full of stationery goodies sent to your house every month! I have done an unboxing of this particular box over on my channel, which you can have a look at by clicking here.

There were plenty of gorgeous products in this box, but my favourite is most definitely this 'hello' stamp. I have legit been using it on everything haha! Love it love it love it!!
That's all for today, I just wanted to pop on really and share a little update and a few photos with you guys. If you aren't already following Anna's blog, then head over there and do so! She runs a lovely blog full of all the crafty/planner related adventures she gets up to :)

I hope you are all having a lovely Saturday!
