Animal Series - Wombat

Wombats are my favourite Australian animal. They are so cute but are also really fast and feisty. 
I would love to cuddle one.

Mother's Day Gifts

I hope all the Mother's out there had a wonderful Mother's Day! My husband and I took my Mum out to lunch and we had a really nice afternoon. Here's the gift we got for her

 We got her some Ro's Argon Body Conditioner from Lush and a cute mug.
We saw this design one day while we were shopping and my Mum loved it! I found the mug on  
Hard To Find and knew I had to get it for her!
 There are lots of cute designs!

 I always get my Mum funny cards and this year I found one on etsy at fluidinkletterpress
 And I may or may not have got one of these mugs for myself! Hard To Find
Have a wonderful week

Book Jar DIY

I've seen these book jars in a bunch of places lately, and decided to make my own. I have 94 unread books on my shelf...that is terrible! Everytime I finish a book, instead of struggling to choose a new book I will pick one out of the jar and then I have to read it. I thought it would be a good way to get through books I've been putting off*. Here is how I made mine!
 
I started with a big clean jar I bought for $5 (it might be a bit too big - oh well)
I used coloured MT tape to wrap around the jar, then I used glue and some Martha Stewart glitter for the knob on the lid of the jar for a bit of sparkle. 
 Next I got some sharpies and post-it notes. I wrote 3 books on each post-it, folded it in half so it stuck (no peeking!), then cut them up!

Thank you Nathan for taking this photo :-)
 Once they were all cut up I put them in the jar and placed it on my bookshelf. 
It looks awesome and I think it will make my book choosing way easier!

 P.S I believe the original idea was by Alex In Leeds and now every booktuber is doing it!


*note - I did NOT put War and Peace in this jar because I know if I chose that I wouldn't read it haha!

Animal Series - Cats

I've decided to do a series on this blog, maybe weekly or fortnightly, a post highlighting a different animal. I will post homey things, jewellery, fashion, funny things and anything really, that has that animal on it! The very first installment is of one of my favourite animals...CATS! Here are some of my favourite feline finds.

And that's it! A few of my favourite catty things. I will be back next week with another installment of this series and I will probably have to do another cat one sooner rather than later because let's face it, cat's are the best!

Book Haul

OK...so my book buying ban isn't going very well! I bought a few books from The Book Depository and a couple at my local bookstore! Here they are -

So excited for this new comic by Lucy Knisley. I love her work!
 Book 2 and 3 of the Chaos Walking trilogy. The Ask and the Answer and Monsters of Men.
I loved the Knife of Never Letting Go and these two are at the top of my to read list!
 The final purchase from the Book Depository is City of Bones, the first book in The Mortal Instrument series. I've been hearing so much about this lately so I decided to jump on the bandwagon.
 The last 2 books I got at The Turning Page in Springwood, which is my local bookstore. It's such a nice little shop!
I've been eyeing this off for a while, the cover is gorgeous! 
Would you look at that *swoons* 
And finally I got this rug bookmark. I have no idea why but it really appealed to me!
And that's everything! Have a great day

Music Monday

Merriment - I Give Up

I fell in love with this song when I heard it on Jessethereaders April 2013 Document Your Life video. 
It's such a sweet and relaxing song and she has such a gorgeous voice, I adore it. 
I bought their EP on iTunes and I listened to it all day today! 

Places you can find them:


Have a great week.
