Me a model!

As I mentioned a few weeks ago I teamed up with Beth Ann Photography to shoot a few hats and some of One Hand Knits Knitwear designs and here are some of the results. Although it took me a while to get used to being in front of the camera I quite enjoyed myself in the end.

 

You can see more on my facebook page. 

These are a couple of the ones for One Hand Knits. 

You can see more of One Hand Knits designs here. 

And a huge thanks to Beth Ann Photography for managing to make me look so good!

ZOMG Bloggers Bash.

 On Monday evening I was lucky enough to be involved in the huge ZOMG Bloggers bash for the launch of the new Rockalily Lipstick shade made for London Lip Gloss 

There were almost 200 bloggers invited, all with a name badge!

 Kelly of Hayday Honey was there for all your hair and makeup needs.

I had a selection of my hats for trying out.

Peeping over this rail is Lizzy of Betty Blues Loungerie who had her lovely wares for people to try on.  I had a try of the Nell Robe, it's amazing and I want one to make my sitting round the house so much more glam!

Then you could go have your photo taken in Tigz Rice's pop up studio, the amazing results of which are here.

To top the evening off we were treated to Burlesque by Rubyyy Jones and Miss Banbury Cross, I was need the back so my photos of them were a bit rubbish sorry!

All in all it was a really fun evening and I got to meet lots of lovely ladies, see ReeRee's blog post on the event with lots of good photos and links to other posts here.

Wonderful Women first meeting of the year.

We had Our first Wonderful Women Minding Out Own Business meeting yesterday at Drink Shop a

& Do. The subject was managing your cash. It was a very useful if not a little mind boggling meeting! 

There were some new faces there as well as some we hadn't seen in a wile and it's always lovely to catch up. 

As ever I didn't take enough photos but here is one of Issy of Books and Ribbons who ran the session explaining cash flow with ReeRee of Rockalily using sugar cubes to illustrate the point!

An interactive Exhibition.

Between Christmas and new year I had a little trip to the Forkbeard Fantasy exhibition at the Royal Festival Hall. It was an interactive exhibition where there are things to play with and discover.

The Unicorn is amazing, you could pull ropes that make it walk and turn it's head or even lift it's tail! 

I made friends with a giant rabbit! 

There was lots of little things to look through, my favourite is this tiny theatre! It's so nice to go to an exhibition that you can touch and play with without getting told off and I have to say I enjoyed it as much as all the kids were!

A little photo shoot.

 One Hand Knits and Beth Ann Photography where doing a little photo shoot last weekend and as I was going to model for One hand Knits I took along some hats, I didn't get many photos myself as I was mostly in front of the camera, witch is a very new experience for me, I'm definitely no model!  

These are some my friend took for me on my camera, I'll show you the finished ones once I get them.

 

Leopard Print pillboxs

I made some more of my Little Leopard Print pillbox hats last week and put them in The Etsy Shop. I ave always made these hats with red trimming but decided to give some other colourways a go. 

Wonderful Women Christmas Party.

Last night was the Wonderful Women Christmas party. I was exited about this as between working alone and working in the pub it's years since I've had a party to go to. 

Early on we decided we wanted to see some Christmas jumpers on the night so this helped motivate me to finish mine! 

 Here is me and Lizzi from Betty Blue's Loungerie she got that amazing jumper from etsy. 

ReeRee our organiser and Rockalilly owner and Pip of Pip Jolley Jewellery in amazing matching jumpers. 

We also did a secret Santa so we all left with a little something.

I couldn't have got a more appropriate gift! I got the Betty Blues bag and inside was some tea and a tea cup to help me make decisions! 

I'm a huge tea lover and got it out this morning, here it is next to my little tea pot, isn't it cute.
