Art Corner

I spotted these silhouette pictures whilst enjoying a delicious roast in the recently re -furbed Victoria Pub in Battersea.

There is a whole wall to enjoy with various different characters such as Kermit the Frog , Miss Piggy and Family guy.

I asked where they were from and it turns out they are handmade by the landlady Philipa! What a great Idea! So Go have a Pint and enjoy the art for free ! I highly recommend the roast dinner and great news if your wheat intolerant like myself. The Gravy is gluten free and I even had a chocolate truffle dessert that was wheat free!

Poundland Beauty Product Bargain Tried and Tested!

Yes, Yes I do Love this vanilla body scrub from Poundland! Nice packaging and gorgeous smell.It left my skin soft and smooth. 

They also have a strawberry milkshake body butter which smells great and would also make a lovely stocking filler.In Superdrug these cost £2.05 so not exactly a super expensive product but if you can get two for the same price why not?.
The advice on the back did make me laugh though: "Warning I am not a food" which gave me the visual of someone putting strawberry body butter on toast!

Under a Fiver Creation of the week!

So I am back from my summer break and have come up with a creation which is not even close to costing a fiver! This make works out at around 50p ! You will need some buttons from a haberdashery or even use some nice spare ones that come on the label with a coat or jumper. Next you will need a tube of super glue for a couple of quid and some plain earring backs from a jewellery shop . These ones cost 50p for a set of four. Glue the buttons on and voila! Some cute as a button earrings!If you are giving them as a gift cut up an old greeting card with a nice pattern into a small square and poke the earrings through and put the backs on!A Kitsch little gift on the cheap!
