Pretty Nostalgic


On a recent trip to Birmingham I found this magazine at New Street Station. Its called 'pretty nostalgic' which has great articles including DIY, cooking, shopping, interior design all in the chic/vintage style.  Its a bit pricey but I think thats because it is like a quarterly magazine and has quite a lot more to offer than your standard magazine. If you spot it anywhere give it a go! 


My mum recently found these teacups as a set of six at a car boot sale in Wales for a bargain price of £5! They were all in really good condition and I fell in love with the design when she showed me. However she is intending to give it as a gift to a friend so sadly they cannot be mine. Maybe I should give car boots a bit more of a go because you never know what you'll find. 





I visited the Stowe Landscape Gardens last Summer and wanted to share a few photos from there seeing as they tie in with the 'vintage' theme of the post.


Hanging herbs from the ceiling is the only way to go.








Chair made out of a tree, as you do.



8 legged sheep are being bred there.  


D'awww!

Wool House

I recently had the opportunity to visit London and decided to go to see the 'Wool House' exhibition at Somerset House. Brace yourself for a long post as there were so many amazing works with a lot of detail to take photos of.







They had a little plot with some sheep to tie in with the wool house for obvious reasons. 







I love this cream suit! Its so pretty especially with the large bow tie.

This room is by far my favourite.

I love this room's rustic feel. 





I love this Union Jack flag cushion. I may have to try and make something like it.
