A Shiny Pony Painting

Last month I was inspired to do a painting of my 'Shiny Ponies' and I thrilled with how it turned out! I wanted to send one to the sweet Stephanie (check out her blog & print shop) since I first fell in love with these shoes on her Instagram. When I saw how she styled her painting this week it put the biggest smile on my face, she makes everything look so beautiful, I just had to she her picture with you all!

Confetti Hearts Club

You will need-

A Frame - mine is from Ikea

Glue

Confetti - I hand punched mine using these punches

When two of my Blogger crushes Stephanie & Tiffany posted this super cute DIY, I knew I had to join their Confetti Hearts Club! You can find the step by step guide to joining here and share your creations with them on Twitter and Instagram using #confettiheartsclub. I went a little bit crazy punching confetti so I have lots left to sprinkle in packages and gifts!

SS Print Shop Review

You may remember this post back in January about the gorgeous and talented Stephanie Sterjovski and the SS Print Shop. Well I finally decided on two prints to order and I already want some more!

Firstly they arrived to the UK from Canada in just 3 days! As soon as I open my package I was greeted by bright and colourful confetti that instantly cheered me up (I was having an awful day). I decided to go for the Hello & the Shakespeare prints after a lot of debating and I couldn't be happier with my choices! I plan to hang the Hello print from some twine along my bedroom wall and I haven't quite decided where to place the Shakespeare one yet!

If you haven't visited the SS Print Shop yet go and do it now! Since I lasted posted about the SS Print Shop, Stephanie has also released a Wedding Collection which I love, although I'm not getting married anytime soon they would make a perfect gift for someone who is!  Which print do you love??

Happy Friday!!! I finally made it through the week, I thought it was never going to end! I also surprised myself be managing to walk to and from work every day without falling on the ice once! I'm headed to London tomorrow to catch a showing of Shrek in the West End with my sister! I hope it doesn't snow too much tonight, I don't fancy getting stuck on the train! What's everyone else up to?

We had so much snow I decided to give my deer some too!

I love discovering bloggers I haven't come across before and towards the end of last year I came across Stephanie Sterjovski through Instagram! Not only does she have a blog full of beautiful pictures, she has amazing style and she has a print shop! The prints run from $15-$35 so are affordable for everyone.  I am in love with everything in the blush and gold, I have no idea which print I want to order! 

The Shakespeare Print $15 is high on my list of must haves! 

This is Forever Print $15

DIY Christmas Decorations, The Blogger Way

I love making things and I love Christmas so why not combine to the two and make some beautiful Christmas decorations to make your home feel festive! I saw this post over on Lauren Conrad's site the other day and loved some of the ideas she posted! I thought I'd share some along with a few others I found!

My favourite was this super simple and quick pine cone decoration from Sweet Paul, I wanna go and collect some pine cones and try this out!

This front door wreath from teach.craft.love I'd keep up all year round! They're adorable and a much better way to display your house number!

Another idea I'd keep up all year round are these Firefly Christmas Lights from Hayseed Homemakin'

This ornament wreath from Ramblings of A Suburban Mom is a fantastic way to add a bit of colour into your home this Christmas!

If you want a shop window look you could makes these Tissue Tassel Garlands like the Planet Blue girls did for their shop window displays!

and over at the Free People blog the filled clear Christmas bulbs with lots of cute ideas! My favourite is the little deer, but I'd fill it with a glittered one instead!
