Monday happy things

This morning I’m still catching up on sleep from attending the amazing event that was Blogtacular. I found it totally exhausting but fun and will hopefully write more about it another day.

Back to my weekly Monday happy things post. As usual lots has made me smile this week.

– Last week I took myself off to Chesham to scout out the local charity shops. I haven’t done it for ages and I loved every second, especially the tube journey through the beautiful Chiltern Hills.

– The article I wrote on tips for creating a fairy gardens has appeared on Craft Seller which I’m really happy about.

– This week I’ve been loving my pretty terrarium. I’m so desperate to add a miniature Playmobil figure or something to it though.

– Rediscovering my amazing Lumix G1. I’ve had this little camera since my son was born 5 years ago and I literally blew the dust off it to go on the Photowalk with Xanthe Berkeley as part of Blogtacular. I’ve become lazy and reliant on my iPhone 6 Plus but my Lumix takes better photos and fits easily in my handbag. I have to start using it again.

– I couldn’t decide what to wear to Blogtacular and bought some lovely new clothes, including a gorgeous Cath Kidston dress and cardigan. There may also have been some trousers and a new top. Now ask me if I wore any of these new items to Blogtacular? Of course not!
