The Preparations

Hello all, here's a post if you're not feeling that 'wedding fever' yet. Personally, I've found the whole Royal Wedding affair a grand excuse to get crafty and avoid any college work :) Here are some of the things I've been working on!

Paperchains - Accessorize

Union Jack Nails - a bit messy and mucked up on my little finger!

Paper Bunting using this tutorial

Still lots more to be strung...!

- I've also been making a few other bits, and I have some cupcakes to ice, we're not doing anything particularly special, my grandparents are coming round for a kitsch little lunch (including: cucumber sandwiches and trifle!) I'll show you all tomorrow, I'm thinking it could be a hefty post! What are you all doing for the wedding?

- I'm going to rag my hair tonight which could have some interesting results... I've been looking for ways to curl my hair without using heat, partly because my hair's a bit long for curlers! 

- Lastly, I've revamped my Tumblr because people seemed to be enjoying my recent picture posts so I thought you might like to see more pictures on a daily basis, it's such a good source of inspiration as well. It still needs a bit of work with the layout I might add - oh how I love html. Also if you've got a Tumblr leave it below I'd like to look at them :)

Wish list #7

Three weeks to this day we'll see the Royal Wedding :) I'm really looking forward to it - although I seem to be the minority?! Anyone else excited? I decided to comprise a little royal wish list. I've already decided what I'm wearing on the 29th and I'll be painting Union Jacks on my nails... Eager much?

L > R: 1.  2.  3.  4.  5.  6.

1. Bunting has been on my mental wish list for sometime now, even before the Royal Wedding was announced, I want to put it all round my room. I want to try making some but I might get lazy and just buy some!

2. I thought this crown ring was cute whether it's a wedding or not.

3. I love customised Union Jacks, things like this are cute just to decorate your room with.

4. I could do with some new socks, mine are either wearing thin or are huge chunky winter ones.

5. How pretty is this dress?! It looks better in real life too, I'm going to have to go and try it on. Also, I think it's a bit of a steal at £34 minus student discount too - bargain!

6. I thought these mugs are a really clever idea - they're from Jack Wills in case you're wondering why I'm thinking a mug is clever haha.

Also have a look on the Accessorize website if you want some more ideas for the wedding, they have all sorts!

Have you got any royal things you want to get?
