“And all at once, summer collapses into fall” - Oscar Wilde

But seriously why does it feel like we have just been thrown in Autumn?! Last week I’m complaining about the heat and today I’m reaching for cosy jumpers, planning autumn makes and convincing myself I need more deep plum, burgandy and burnt orange fabrics 😅

There’s something I love about the shift in the season though… crisp mornings, darker evenings, cosy vibes and the feeling like a whole new start is beginning

So… hello September!! I think I’m ready for you!

August… you absolute wasteman! 😂

This month has been a lot. Sales have been slow, my mental health has taken a small dive, my suitcase literally tried to take me out and there have been so many moments where I have wondered what the f**k I am actually doing here

BUT… there is always a brighter side

This month I got to support some seriously talented small business friends and spend quality time with my most favourite human. If it wasn’t for the people around me I don’t quite know how I would have made it through the month

I moved my craft room back to its original location in the house and oh my am I so much happier in this space, it’s weird how just being in another room has changed how creative I feel. I’m also feeling more confident in myself after hitting 5 stone weightloss. I know that’s pretty personal to share on a business page but I’m proud of it and this is my page so I’ll share it because I want to!

And finally getting my stall set up to a point where I can look at it and think… yeaaaa I’m f**king proud of that! The compliments I have had on my stall over the weekend at markets has been epic and I really do appreciate it

It hasn’t been the easiest month and I’m never going to pretend it has been. Running a business is hard and I don’t think enough people talk about how hard it is especially when you are also struggling personally, so here’s me saying it’s f**king hard!

But I’m still here, still making, still showing up and still figuring s**t out. And maybe that is just enough for now!

So here is to September! Hopefully with less breakdowns, less setbacks, more joy and loads more sales! We got this!

You don’t need a reason. You don’t have to wait for payday, a special occasion or someone else to buy it for you!

If it makes you smiles, makes you feel pretty or simply makes an ordinary Saturday feel a little more you… go for it!

Consider this your permission to buy the pretty thing. Because sometimes it’s the little things we do for ourselves that really do bring the most joy

TWO NEW SEWING HACKS?!

I’ve been seeing these “helpful hints” for ages so when I had a big batch of interfacing to do I thought no better time to try them.. both! First using a spray bottle to get my pressing cloth (old bit of cotton… ahem) damp when applying interfacing*. And second using my larger Cricut EasyPress to fuse it

Honestly… game changer! And I’ll be doing it every time now!

Also… this is my first time creating this kind of content… let me know if you like the tutorial/talking/behind the scenes type stuff because I think I enjoy creating it more than the close up, multi angle reels. Would love to know if it’s worth doing it more often!

EasyPress:
Interfacing: Black JTL700 from , White EB8028 from
Spray Bottle: Amazon
