... hence why I haven't really posted here in a while. 

It is such an unbelievable / surreal / liberating / incredible relief not to have to do, well, anything. I can mill around the house all day and not feel guilty. It's odd, especially due to the fact that, for the first time in 2 years , I'm not having to think about some art project all. the. time. Without the pressure to document and develop every single idea or inspiration you come across, I can just appreciate everything so much more,

without constantly thinking how to tie it in, link it, present it, write about it etc, etc. Strange, but so good. The only decisions I have to make now are whether to have a cup of green tea or yorkshire tea or what colour flowers I should plant in my garden (I'm addicted to gardening already, it's ridiculous.) I seriously don't know what to do with myself. Obviously as part of procrastination mid exams I made lists upon lists of projects I'd undertake once I finished but I haven't really done too much. Although I am getting a stall at the

 village fete at the end of august to sell jewellery and thingz so that should be good.

~~ anyways // found this amazing editorial in UNDER/CURRENT magazine when I was in Rough Trade the other day about Kenzo. Photography by Can Evgin, Styling by Melina Nicolaide. just lush.

As well as practically completely re-doing my room, I have decided to take over the bottom part of our garden. It's been overgrown for an age and we've never really got round to looking after it since we moved in like 6 years ago. It's lined / surrounded by tall overgrown hedges, has a couple of rusty old benches and a gravel path down the middle. I basically want to cut and trim the hedges down a tad, paint the benches, plant some poppies & hydrangeas - blue preferably but apparently 'they won't grow in our soil' but whatever, I can try. It's pretty lush because it's sheltered and away from the house. I want a hammock but that may be
a bit down the line. So I'm thinking make some cushions, buy some moroccan lanterns, candles, big umbrella things etc etc and basically chill down there under the stars drinking wine with whoever wants to come and keep me company! aaand in the day, sunbathe with a mountain of books & sketchbooks. maaaaaaaaaaan i can't wait.

this will be me ^

tumblah

yes i am now a tumblr geek loser & have not one, but two to distract me from reality, which currently sucks

 due to exams so you can see my reasoning non?

so yuh i have a slight obsession with interiors and apartments and architecture and whatnot, so in my boredom made
/əpärtmənt/
to simply share the massive collection of photos stored on my laptop.
I want to live in every one of the places on there, or like an accumulation of them all...

blue day

there's just something about pictures of dudes on skateboards...

i like the sound of the rain

In the summer (10th June), when my life resumes and when I can spend days wandering round carboots and
 charity shops & making art all day long, I'm considering selling some of my handmade jewellery and
 suchlike... I have a shed full of glass, solder & metal my grandad left (he used work as a stained glass artist)
 before he ran off to london and I'm gradually working my way through it using a lot for art projects and
 things. I make / collect / find random  things to put round my neck anyway so if I get on a bit of a roll, might
 as well sell some to y'all. Thought about plenty of designs but just haven't had the time or dedication recently
 .. I'm thinking things like like a small three dimensional glass pyramid & coloured glass pyramids &
 cubes & things.. Oh and rings, lots of ringzzz...
 I need to visit this little shop in Covent Garden that is literally like an Aladdin's Cave of the coolest &
quirkest beads & things...

29th April 2011

Everything about yesterday was beautiful ~ Her dress, was incredible, as expected by Sarah Burton for
 McQueen which I was so so happy about. The lace, which was handmade by the Royal School of Needlework
 was stunning as was the embroidery and the pleats and the shape. I was pretty excited beforehand but I didn't
 think I would be on the verge of tears as she walked down the aisle lined with trees. The Queen also looked
 pretty rad, rocking her yellow ensemble and I still think Harry and Pippa should get together. All in all, it made
 me very happy. Off to read the newspapers with a cuppa.

// man i love being British.
