Bedroom Tour

Here are some sneak peaks at some of my favourite parts of my bedroom. (It sounds terrible, I know!) But I really enjoyed decorating for one and using exactly what I wanted. It’s a bedroom filled with colour, patterns, vintage prints, artwork and some of my favourite teapots and decorations. I love spending time in this room! My adorable fabric wall stickers are from Love Mae and they are the best ever! I have already moved them around a few times and they always look fantastic.

Fabric Swap

I participated in a lovely vintage fabric swap hosted by Green Tea and Red Nails. It was such a great idea and I am loving all the fabric that I received back! Some has already been used but there is a few that I will be keeping for myself to use in yet unknown crafty projects!

Day 2

A photo of what you wore today:

Side note: I am terrible at posing in front of a camera. I get all weird and pull strange smiles. So please don't zoom in on this one. 

I love this skirt. It was my Mum's when she was my age. I don't even care that the hem has fallen out and it rides up when I walk long distances.

Weekend Wrap Up.

This is a late weekend wrap up..but my weekend only *technically* ended this morning when I left my family and travelled back to Newcastle. I am on a mid semester recess for two weeks so I had an extended weekend with the family.

We had a 'working bee' at my sister's house to paint some of her rooms. I didn't get too many photos because I was helping paint (duh). But here is another GIF of my dad painting one of the walls. 

I also hit up my favourite op shop and walked away with more than I was expecting. A whole heap of new pretty fabrics, two patterns, a quilting book, handbag handles and a very pretty new jar. 

Other things that happened on the weekend included learning to make jam in the microwave with Mum, playing with Dudley and the kittens, and showing my new tattoos to my parents (eek!) 

The next few days are going to be very busy, busy! I am reopening the shop today and I have HEAPS of new things planned and cut out ready for me to sew.

The last two days have been very, very productive in the Everyday Mae studio. Working on custom orders, shipping out bags and cutting out new bags! I'm going to keep on working while I have all this motivation. 

Productivity=Good! 

Weekend Wrap Up.

This past weekend I:

Made a really quick high-waisted ruffle skirt! (Ignore the terrible photo. I am bad at outfit shots!) 

Cut out some more pieces for my first quilt project. I bought these super awesome vintage fat quarters from this shop here. 

I also (almost) finished off this dress! I decided to do bias binding around the neckline and arm holes and I was happy with how it turned out, considering I haven't done that before.

A quick visit to the fabric shop today. I got these fabrics, some of which are going to go into my quilt project. 

I also started working on my next dress. This is going to be a different design to the last two I've made. I am hoping to get the majority of the sewing finished tomorrow, I am planning on wearing this dress next weekend! Eekk. 

I finished off and listed four new bags in the shop over the weekend (I will talk about these in a later post!) Thanks goes to Grant who provided the hand that you can see in the pictures. 

I love the look of curls, and so when I found this blog post I knew that I would have to try it out. I left the rags in for longer to make sure my hair was completely dry. When I took them out I had really, really tight ringlets! You can kind of see the result in the first picture. Definitely be doing that again!

That about sums up my weekend!
