Now I'm not a big fan of Valentine's Day, a few years back a friend of mine sadly decided to take his life on this day and it made such an impact on me. As much as it does stir up some sadness in me though, I do appreciate a day of proclaiming love for your other half.

Being the cutie he is, the boyfriend got me some beautiful flowers and an incredibly soft teddy! Also we sat down and ate some pancakes as we were both working on Shrove Tuesday so we never got a chance to make pancakes, and what's the point in having a crepe maker if we don't use it on Pancake Day!!




Hope you all had a lovely weekend and are having a good 2016 so far!

How excited have I been recently about having a little courtyard I hear you ask? Very! I've barely done anything to it yet and I can't wait to start, but time and money are cutting me short.

So a few weeks ago my boyfriend bought a longboard, he's wanted one for ages and finally got one from his work. We went out at the weekend to try it, he brought along an old plastic cruiser he got years ago so I wouldn't be that left behind.

I've recently found some beautiful tapestries online and they have fast become my favourite things I own. Picnics feel so much more magical when I have these laid out to lounge on in the sun. My boyfriend and I have sat for hours by the water with these and I absolutely love them!!

I've got one from An Enchanted Life, a lovely company who sell all types of spiritual things, I just want to own them all!! Go ahead and check out their rings, anklets, tea strainers...! I own one of their phone case as well.

I've also got one from Jaipur Art Factory, these are a little cheaper, but just as beautiful. They have all different colours of mandalas, and delivery is real fast!

Here are a few I have:
