Mischief & memories jar

April 24, 2017April 21, 2017 Lipstick and LibertyLeave a comment

In my eyes, no birthday party would have been complete without a craft station. You know how at weddings people get guests to write slushy messages to the happy couple? Well that’s exactly what I didn’t want, but I did want my pals to be part of my evening and have something to remember it… Continue reading Mischief & memories jar

30th ‘birthding’

April 21, 2017April 21, 2017 Lipstick and LibertyLeave a comment

So I just turned 30. Yup, that happened. It’s a tricky one when you’re single and been made redundant two months previous. Oh, and now have as many spots as I do wrinkles. So I decided seeing as so many of my friends are getting married this year, I would have my own major celebration. I’m… Continue reading 30th ‘birthding’

Tilda print perfection

December 21, 2016 Lipstick and LibertyLeave a comment

The first Christmas after I bought my first house, I was just getting in to sewing. I bought a pack of fat quarters from eBay and set about making some festive pretties. First up was a string of bunting, which, to be honest, is a mess. I only had a £50 mini machine then and the… Continue reading Tilda print perfection

S is for…

I was in Hobbycraft for something completely different, but couldn’t resist this MDF letter. It was only £2 after all. I decided to decoupage it with my favourite Pip Studio wrapping paper (which features a lot in my flat) and paint the sides in hot pink (obviously!). I think it looks nice on my shelf… Continue reading S is for…

Watermelon cactus pot DIY

May 20, 2016May 20, 2016 Lipstick and LibertyLeave a comment

My friend and talented designer colleague Sam has a mild obsession with cacti and her desk is covered with sketches, so for her birthday the whole team decided to paint a little ceramic pot each and pop her favourite plants inside. As you may have noticed from my blog, I kind of love pink and… Continue reading Watermelon cactus pot DIY

Around the world quilt

March 21, 2016 Lipstick and LibertyLeave a comment

My first ever quilt was a beautiful Liberty strip quilt from The Liberty Book of Home Sewing (£20, Quadrille). It took me months to choose the fabrics I wanted, and then several more buying a metre at a time. I needed five metres at £22 per metre, plus wadding and thread – eek! Anyhow, it… Continue reading Around the world quilt

Vintage glass frames

February 18, 2016 Lipstick and LibertyLeave a comment

Having started work as assistant editor on a homes and interiors mag at the start of the year, I have had a serious case of what I have come to call, ‘the I-wants’. Surrounded by inspiring images of beautiful houses and style ideas is pure torture (OK, it’s pretty darn great), but when you’re a… Continue reading Vintage glass frames
