My Crafty Loveliness | Random Shabby Chic Home Touches and Instagram Photographs


How cute is this mini hair dryer?! I was asked to get a lot of my photographs together and things that I have created to send to someone and I thought I would share them with you all today. A mixture of old and new photographs of lovely bits and bobs around my home. This photo was an instagram shot. I bought the mini hair dryer on ebay as I wanted one for drying gesso and paint, I was just very lucky that I found one that was all flowery and gorgeous!


This was my first little Cath Kidston stool make over that I created about a year ago that takes pride of place in my bedroom ^_^ you can see my original post here. 



This is a pretty little butterfly that was attached to my bedside table when I was shooting my bedroom for a feature in Cellar Door Magazine Spring Fling 2011 issue which you can see here. 




Just another instagram shot showing my lovely new cupcake spoons. I was so excited! I love this shot. It's just a shame that its so low res thanks to the old iPhone. 



I was very spoilt on my birthday last year and got these lovely anthropologie bowls. That little kraft/string situation is a very very long bunting from a fabulous fete ^_^








a big old pile of vintage fabrics fresh from the laundry. I had randomly piled them up for the ironing and then realised that they were actually quite pretty so I snapped a few photographs and was so pleased with the colours! Makes me want to go and find even more fabric. All of it was listed on the Etsy fabric shop ^_^






My second stool makeover! This was a big horrible red and "metal" crappy plastic stool that I had for years. I simply sprayed it white and added a cath kidston food cover. I use it as a wee table when Im on the sofa. We actually have a new chair/seating space in the living room so it will probably end up beside that as a 'tea table' 






Some lovely crochet bliss on my sofa of course. No good crafty home should be without a crochet afghan. If you like crochet afghans you may even end up having about 4 lying around spare like I do ^_^


My new favourite mug! stolen from my mums house because we couldn't get any more. She has one in pink but the green was my favourite. Of course it's sitting atop a wonderful lilac crochet stool cover. Slightly more enormous than my standard crochet pot holders! And some dairy milk golden crunch in the background! The most delicious chocolate ever, especially if its coming from the south of ireland. mm mmmm 



Im addicted; to both Cath Kidston and black coffee. And possible crochettttting/crochet pot holders! 




My beautiful kahusa slippers. After I posted this on stream zoo I was given advice to get them wet and wear them in.. which was excellent but they didn't last very long! As I wore them an awful lot and got them covered in sun cream and all the rest... back in may when it was actually warm. 



Loads of pretty pens from Muji! I love these. I had to order them on ebay because I couldn't get the full set on muji uk. Seemed a little crazy but I have my pens and Ive been doodling all over my planner so I am happy.  


Have a great day ^_^




Lots of love Claire xo
