Teacups and Tulips!

Well its been a very very long time since I last blogged and I apologise for that. Things have been pretty manic around here, moving out, leaving my bf, quiting my job, starting a new one, getting debt free and going to the dentist! and on top of that I've helped out at a drama group, knitting a few bits and pieces, crocheted a few more, baked quiet a bit and been shopping!

I have fallen in love with cups and saucers! I have decided that when ever I come across an odd cup and saucer (you know the ones that are in charity shops that dont have anything else to go with it) im going to adopt it! I am planning on having a complete tea service made of all odd pieces, inc a cake stand, milk jug and sugar bowl!
I came across a really cute tea cup and saucer candle that I think is uber cute:

Isnt it cute?

I also grabbed a really good bargin in Tesco the other day (yes you heard right, a bargin from Tesco)Tulips were reduced to 30p a bunch, so I grabbed 2:

I am madly in love with the colours of these flowers! I think that buying myself flowers will be my once a month treat to myself.

As I said, I have been knitting too, Ive made a hat, a cowl,a headband, 4 dish clothes, im currently working on a boulster cushion, a shawl and a blanket, I only have pics of the hat and cowl:


The cowl is very yummy, but the next one I make I will do a slight increase nearer the bottom so it flares to fit the neck better. Im not so sure on the hat though.

Well thats all for today, Im sorry its short and sweet but i will post again soon.
