and so the countdown begins...

Yay!

It's December 1st, 

officially only 25 days until Christmas 

(or 24 if you are a crazy Norwegian)

and now 

It is totally okay for me to be listening to Christmas songs everyday!

My new favourite is

It is time for advent calendars

and Christmas displays

also i may have gone a little wild in Ikea a couple of weeks ago!

cute Christmas tea towel

Christmas themed tumblers

Totally useless gifts after Dec 25th 

but 

whatevs they are CUTE! 

can you tell  i am super excited for the Holiday!?

are you guys as excited as me???

I got Crafty for the Holidays

I feel like now the holiday season is rolling around my craftyness has gone into overdrive

In the past few days I have done a ton of new bows for my etsy you can see them here

I have  made some cute fabric roses for a top secret project of mine ;)

Also i have made an awesome Christmas decoration made out of shiny red and gold lucky stars and it is the perfect size for our tree (as it is going to be mini)

sorry for the super duper crappy photo quality there! (bring on the pro camera TP and I are getting each other for xmas!)

I also felt very inspired by British Girl in Norway and decided to make my boyfriend his very FIRST stocking!

Obviously this isn't the finished project i just bought some fabric from ikea this evening and have cut out the pattern! tomorrow is sewing day to see if it all worked out! the pattern is kind of made up so i hope this works!!

also I kind of went Christmas mental in Ikea this evening and came home with lots of adorbs stuff for our apartment including this beauty

and yeah i realise i could probably make this without too much hassle instead of spending $25/£16 but it is effort and this one was just so perfect!

Have you guys been Crafty recently??

Hair Help!

Back in 2008, just before i started university i thought it would be a genius idea to bleach the shit out of my really long hair! not discouraged by the massive amounts of damage it caused and constant re dying it needed i carried on bleaching 

and was left with a very shiny brassy yellow - not pretty :/

Around March/April time i decided it was time for a change and chose a deep purply reddish brown colour

which was okay if not a tad boring...anyway the colour started to fade into a strange dirty blondish brown i guess

Untill eventually it turned this BEAUTIFUL colour!!

Which i miss dearly!

and desperately want back! but i have no idea what i would ask for at the hair dressers as i came about the colour in such a round about way.

so my dear readers i have 2 questions for you...

1. what colour would you say this is??

&

2. Would it be wildly innapropriate for me to take in the 2 photos above to a hairdresser (as they are the only pics i have with this colour)

also i hope you enjoy the photos, as all of them show me either on the way to drinking or actually drinking #studentsdrinktoomuch!?

one more thing...i would like to remind you that you can find me on Twitter and Facebook, i would love to see your faces around there!
