craftiness and happiness = love #diary

The perfect week. I’ve done a lot of writing – together with research for my next nest project. Love exposed walls. Subtle factory lighting, ‘brights’ mixed with amber. White smooth ceilings. Natural oak cladding. All this finished with hand spun metal chairs and matching table bases. Jam jars full of condiments with kraft labels tied with organic string. A mis-match of vintage, fine bone china tea cups and saucers. Chunky white crock coffee mugs. Concrete flooring. Chalk signage. It’s about taste not visiting ‘mainstream’ superstore chains. Stepping out the box. Being different. Not following the crowd. This is what I call good sex. TBH©

nesting until Spring

I think, each year between now and Spring, I nest. I’ve been creative. Most times when I go out, I find things to bring home (wherever I am dwelling). I love my new pink chair which I spotted in a charity shop. It was only £3. The terracotta lady on the window ledge, I found on top of a dustbin a couple of years ago, outside the chip shop. I was having an awful day and lost direction. Pulled over for a bag of chips. Then just saw her there. Less is More.

 

I am also crafting. I used to do this many years ago but somehow lost my mojo. It’s back and I have never felt so fulfilled. I am creating hampers. I have sourced lots of vintage things and pretty little treats. Will show you when I have finished my first one!

 

Boom …

I hope everyone is having a really beneficial and lovingly rewarding week too.

Love Tiffy. X
