Etsy love October: City of Blackbirds!!

I first fell in love with Eadaoin and her photos when I saw her blog City of Blackbirds, I loved the colours, the tone and the content was just perfect. As soon as Eadaoin opened her shop I knew I was going to love everything and I really do!!

Cupcakes, macarons, teacups and heart shaped bokehs! What more could a girl want??(In fact I have the macaroon print in our bedroom as I type, it looks wonderful!)

{Click on the photo above to find these lovely prints and even more...}

I'm 100% sure that you will love Eadaoin's shop as much as I do so please check it out and spread the Etsy love :)
p.s. Do you have an etsy shop? If so, why not send me an email with your link AND a paragraph introducing yourself with an explanation of why I (and my readers) will love your shop... I might even decide to feature you if you're lucky!

It's September!

I don't know about you but I am excited about that!

1. It's my birthday month!
2. August Break is over... *
3. I've been busy planning exciting things over August and now its time to impliment them!

* I enjoyed August Break - but I'm a talker and boy have I missed 'talking' to you guys!

Sponsor Changes!

Some of you may have realised that the sidebar on the right is now titled 'Etsy love'... unfortuntely sponsoring did not take off for me. However I didn't start sponsors for the money... I started it to help advertise etsy shops - so I have taken it upon myself to add some of my favourite shops onto my sidebar free of charge (don't they look pretty) and every month I'm going to feature a favourite of mine in a post.

I am all about the etsy and blog love - so I hope you all are too!

First up is Alyssa's new shop It's Olive!

Some of you may know Alyssa from her blog 'Just putting it out there' or her amazing project 'Project You' (which incidently is having a rather Spectacular September with an amazing giveaway - you should check it out!)

You may not have known that Alyssa is one creative lady and her shop is a collection of her hard work over the past few months. I love her work (I'm particularly fond of bows) and I really think that you will too!

I hope you enjoy this monthly feature as much as I do and please check out the shops in the sidebar - they are my favourites!

Amazing new sponsor love!!

Hurray! I'm back in the world of blogging feeling refreshed, slightly sunburnt (it was sunny!!!) and ready to share our wonderful weekend away.
(I took a rather amazing amount of instax minis, oops!!)

However... before I do that I am more than excited about sharing my latest sponsor with you

Readers from way back when will recognise Wendy's lovely shop Studio MME from my first big giveaway at 50 followers (including some of her amazing kodak duaflex photos) and from my Etsy 2009 feature!

So I am absolutely delighted to introduce Megan as my new sponsor as not only is Megan's shop beautiful, showcasing just how incredibly talented Megan is, I also count Megan as a wonderful blog friend as well!

Studi MME now focuses on Victorian Pen and Ink prints with some of my favourites including her Time Travelling Tourists and the stunning locket sets (here and here) by Polarity.

As well as having a fantastic shop which I adore - Megan also has a wonderful blog with her development ideas, amazing featured etsy shops every week and helpful tips for both blogging and etsy.

I can not recommend Megan's Studio MME shop and blog enough!
Go check them out!
