DIY Tassel Earrings.


Inspired by all the tassel earrings I've seen on the high-street, in particular these ones from New Look (see them here), I thought I'd have a go at making my own thriftier version. I'm actually super pleased with how they turned out, perfect for the party season! Mine cost around £3.50, and they're sterling silver - total bargain! This project will take a couple of hours, less time if you decide on fewer tassels; I got the process down to about 10 minutes per tassel, to give you an idea of how long it will take. This is definitely something you can make in front of the TV or while watching a festive film - make them as a gift or keep them for yourself. I can certify these earrings are so worth the extra effort of DIY-ing, rather than just buying a pair from a shop.

Lou Lou's Swindon Vintage Fair.


Two Saturdays ago, I had the pleasure of attending Lou Lou's vintage fair in Swindon, bringing some much needed vintage right to my doorstep. I've been longing to go to a fair for ages (I've not managed to attend one since January *gasp*), so I was well overdue my vintage fix! The STEAM Museum was the perfect setting; a beautifully industrial Grade II listed railway building.

Visit to a Vintage Fair.


On Saturday, I went to a rather good Lou Lou's vintage fair as a birthday treat.

So, two days into my 20th year, my darling parents drove me to Bristol for a bit of retro retail therapy. It was a 'January Sale Special' - how could I resist?!
