12 days of christmas

So for the second year running I have decided to do the 12 days of Christmas again leading up till Christmas day. This will start the 13th December and end 24th December. I hope to make all the posts interesting for you to read and look at and couldn't be more excited about working on them (waking up tomorrow ready to prepare them). I don't quite know what they will involve yet but I will make sure that they are as good as I can make them. I always get to excited about counting down the days till Christmas and this build the excitement even more. I hope you are looking forwards to the big day and have a wonderful December alongside it. Happy Holidays! Sarah, x

So it's the 2nd of December and I am sure you have all thought about what you want for christmas now, if you haven't get your thinking caps on already! I love this time of the year so much, everything about it, the songs, the fairy lights, the happiness it brings people, the food, everything you cant think of. I've put together a little wishlist as you can see. I will never get all of these but it's just to show you (hey a girl can wish right)! Also as my birthday and Christmas are so close I normally put the money together to get something bigger (hence the cheeky PS4 sat on that picture)!

I hope you all get what you wish for at Christmas, I'm sure just being with family is enough! I was lucky enough to get a PS4 on John Lewis at midnight of the release date. I am so excited to get playing it! Let me know what your getting for Christmas? Have a nice week, Sarah, x

Let's Get Visual

Before I went to university, I took a trip round some shops to take pictures of their visual merchandising as part of a pre-arrival task. I presented this is a scrapbook along with digital and printed fashion inspiring things. This was seen as more of an ice breaker task, for us to get to know each other and get a feel for the course.

I found a little shop called 'Bird's Yard' down Chapel Walk in Sheffield, which sold Sheffield designers under one roof. This meant that locals who had created there own little companies and made clothes, jewellery, homeware, cards and many other things where having a place to sell their little collections and to be promoted. I found this to be a wonderful idea, it was such a lovely place as you can see.

I have always been a fan of Cow Vintage and therefore I went to take photos here, they have so much stock in now they need more space in their shop! From the multicoloured ceiling and the wooden floor the place just has a very retro and quirky feel to it, that and the fact that you can find some real bargains!

Anyway, I felt the need to share these pictures with you, as well as it being a little bit of a different post. I have some great things planned for my christmas countdown, only a week now till I start working on it! Hope you are having a nice day, Sarah, x

it's always going to be yours
