Good evening bloggers!

I've had a busy busy few days and I feel so much better for it. I'm one of these people who can't focus on things unless she's occupied by something else. If I sit on my bum and do nothing my mind stews and everything seems worse.

I'll do an update about the weekend and then create a separate post about Monday after I've done this one!

So, my weekend...

Saturday

Well, I'm a member of a wee group of people on Facebook and this week we decided to write each other letters. We did a randomisation of names and whoever we got we had to write a letter/card etc. It's such a lovely idea, it's nice to know someone has taken the time to make you something/write something especially for you that only you will read. It's so personal. I love it! I haven't got my letter yet, but will show you what I sent the girl I got.

A card, a wee goodie bag, a dog shaped photo frame and you can just see the bottom of my letter poking out the card!

A close up of the card, I took it on my phone so it's a little blurry!

I've gotten right into my card making recently, I've missed being creative. It's a side of me that doesn't come out very often.

A couple of my other cards:

Lover's silhouette - doesn't really take a genius to work out who this is for!

My old nursery is closing and the leaving party is on Saturday, they're having a big send off. This is my card for them.

My nursery was private, with my Dad not around my Mum had no other choice but to send me to a private nursery as it had longer opening hours. They were a big help throughout my childhood and I have some lovely memories of being there. They were a very hands on nursery, they would do things that my Mum often struggled to do such as providing swimming lessons, taking us out to the museum and Botanic Gardens etc. They were also a big help to my Mum with things like my skincare. When I was a baby I had chromic eczema all over my body. I had to be bandaged from head to foot every morning and every evening. Mum didn't often have time for this in the mornings so they offered to do it for her. Just lots of little things like that, they're all amazing people and it'll be nice to see them all again next Saturday.

This Saturday I did a few other things, I ordered some new furniture for my bedroom. Those of you who know the situation will know WHY I need new furniture. I ordered some things from the Clovis range from Asda, they're lovely. Plain white with silver handles, pretty classy (keep all comments to yourself!).

So, I've ordered a new wardrobe, 2 sets of drawers and a bedside table. I think they're lovely. Quite plain but that's what I like about the. They'll match any colour scheme.  It'll provide enough storage for me without cluttering my room. I want a de-cluttered, clean, spacious room.

It goes well with my new colour scheme too, but we'll get to that!

I went to Tesco on Saturday as I had seen some stationary related things that I liked. I didn't get much as I still have a lot left over from college but I wanted a new diary - I'm getting old, if I don't write things down I will forget what I'm meant to be doing! I also saw a notebook, a cheapy but sturdy folder and a couple of magazine file things to keep everything neat and ordered.

Nothing all that special but I still like them. Goes along with my classy theme for my room!

That's about it for Saturday really!

Sunday

Sunday wasn't a busy day but it felt pretty stressful! I went to Homebase with Mumma to get some paint samples to test on my walls. After deliberating over colours and different shades I finally decided. Painting will commence next week! I'll post before and after pictures when it's done!

I also made cupcake toppers for a friend I met up with on Monday, you'll see them in my next post, keep an eye out!

Cheerio!
