How to Sew a Vintage Peg Apron

November 29, 2019November 28, 2019Leave a comment

One of my favourite household chores is doing the laundry, I love the simplicity of it, the smells of the laundry products and getting time to go outside and enjoy the fresh air whilst I peg everything up. What I don't like, however, besides folding laundry, is dealing with plastic pegs. After time in the … Continue reading How to Sew a Vintage Peg Apron

Hurray it's the weekend! So after getting my wisdom teeth removed in an emergency, I've been ordered to take it easy for several days. Because of this, there must likely won't be a video or blog released Monday. Instead I'll be relaxing and taking some time out at home; havn't done that in ages and secretly looking forward to switching off. Have a great weekend!

Don't you hate it when you go to the dentist for a check up and end up getting your wisdom teeth removed? Yeah, that was my day; now I am all puffy and sore and sound like the Godfather. I spent my morning trying to fix my emails which will be up and running tomorrow. But I had a lovely evening at @cherrybombparlourperth getting my hair cut, I can't wait to play with it tomorrow. A special thank you to Daniel and Michelle for doing my hair and putting up with my pain induced ramblings. Also to @miss.vintage.orchid for laughing at my chipmunk face and driving me home. Kinda wish I was doing something as exciting as a shoot tomorrow but unfortunately my days been cancelled due to lack of wisdom. Hope you all have a great day tomorrow. ❤
Day dreaming of a vintage kitchen and cooking up a storm. One of the ways I show love is by cooking for people, if I make you brownies, you're very special to me. I had a lovely evening with two dear friends watching one of my favourite movies. It was nice talking about some personal issues and discussing how bodies change over time. I miss my dancers body but I was so unhappy back then; now I've lost all my muscles and have endo-belly but I'm pretty happy. Sure there are good days and bad days, but I'm enjoying my relationship with food more. It also means I'm enjoying cooking once again. What's your favourite thing to make? Mines pasta fresh and home made with a delicious sauce. Yum! ❤ Location @midcenturycafe Dress true vintage from eBay Accessories @erstwilder
It's going to be another very busy week but there's something very exciting happening on Friday so make sure you keep your eyes peeled! Hope you all had a lovely Monday ❤
Last night was the Perth Pinup Christmas party and what a wonderful night it was to catch up with dear friends and share many laughs. I wore this dress which I found at an op shop over a year ago and thought it deserved a night out. It's very 80s but why not mix it up a little? I'd love to know, what's you best op shop find? I havn't had a day free to go on shopping but I'm hoping early next year! Hope everyone has a great week ahead!
It's been Avery long day, I'll tell you all about my day tomorrow but right now, I really just want to sleep. Goodnight 💋 Sweet Dreams Photo by @angiedelariephotography Brooch @erstwilder Top @ladykloves
I do hope it's going to be a nice weekend, I don't know about you but I could do with a weekend like that. What are your plans? Please tell me your lovely plans incase I need to live vicariously through you all. Sending love to all who may need it right now.

It was another scorcher today and I spent most of it looking after my fur baby, she's not handling the heat very well. It's time for a quick catch up with friends, a bath and an early night! Hopefully I'll finish putting up more decorations tomorrow. Is your festive shrub up yet? Do you theme your tree? Photo by @angiedelariephotography Brooch @erstwilder Dress @tatyanaboutique
Give me fields and fill them with flowers and wheat; let me lay in them and soak in the sun. Leave this piece of Earth pure; and I will only leave behind joy. ❤❤ Photo by @angiedelariephotography Brooch by @erstwilder Dress from @theprettydress
Hurray for another amazing collection release from @erstwilder in collaboration with @petecromer 💛 This little Echidna stole my heart with his cuteness! Did you know a baby Echidna is called a 'puggle'? How cute! I also sewed up this dress so I have something light and airy to wear in this warm weather. It's an old Butterick pattern with vintage lace trim and fabric from good old @spotlight. Photo taken by @angiedelariephotography who is one of the greatest people I know. Go show her some love over at her page; it's filled with stunning ladies! What more could you want.
