I'm in the process of some renovations and have decided to turn one of the rooms in my home into a sewing room. Being a vintage lover, I've always thought about how I can include vintage furniture in my home and how I can repurpose it to suit my needs. I've always wanted a vintage … Continue reading Restoring a 1950’s Vintage Kitchenette

Tips for Getting Published in a Pinup Magazine

January 10, 2022December 9, 2021Leave a comment

The word 'pinup' came about from war times where those who were sent away for the war effort, pinned up photographs and posters of their wives, girlfriends and popular celebrities of the time on their walls. Such posters were popular and the girls depicted in them soon became known as 'pin up girls'. The relationship … Continue reading Tips for Getting Published in a Pinup Magazine

A lot of people think that pageants can get really nasty and horrible; I suppose it can be true and I have heard my fair share of horror stories but I have also heard some lovely and uplifting stories of girls really supporting each other. For pinup pageants, and any other competition, there's a way … Continue reading Pinup Pageants Guide: Pageant Etiquette

Day dreaming of fields of gold 💛 can't wait to come back here, hopefully sometime this year but who knows!
It might be time for me to start knitting again, it's been a while but it's the perfect lap craft for couch and movie days. I've got a few vintage patterns I'd love to try but I'm a little nervous of starting. Do you over think projects or just get on with it? I'm a chronic overthinker haha!
Im looking forward to a quiet and rainy weekend of rest, recovery and the joy of hot tea with cinnamon. What is your favourite way to warm up in winter? It's so cold at the moment here 🥶
Do you enjoy winter holidays or summer holidays? I suppose summer is a bit easier but there's something delightfully cosy about winter adventures. What would be your ideal winter holiday?
Big boots bows make me happy. I'm trying really hard to get back to some sort of normal work routine but I've honestly been struggling. I'm not sure when I'll be well enough to film and edit and get back into the swing of things but I'm trying my best each day.
Sundays are an odd day, they have this laziness to them that's something to be savored but by the evening I'm stressed about the week to cone. Anyone else feel like this? I personally think we should add another day to the weekend so I can get all my housework done.
It's looking like a quiet weekend of recovery for me, what are your plans? What would be your perfect weekend?
Sad story about this dress: I made it using #butterick6284 during lockdown and absolutely loved it. After a few wears I took it to the laundry and somehow it fell behind the laundry basket where it wasn't visible. After a good while I found it but noticed it had some odd sun bleaching right on the front of the bodice. Now I wear it around the house but I'm tempted to remake it from the same fabric. Should I make another copy? Or should I just accept it as a house dress?
I'm in recovery mode and it's driving me crazy. I wanted to work today but just couldn't due to pain. I miss my normal routine, blogging and sewing. I don't think I'll be able to film this week but I'll try my best for a video next week.
I can't believe it's already wednesday! The week is just whizzing by and there's still so much to do. I'd much rather be lounging in pretty dresses. What would you rather be doing right now?
