My wonderful weekend adventure!!

Gosh I have so much to write about!!! My weekend with my family was wonderful!! There were lots of suprises waiting for me, such as my new outfit...
New slippers...

New socks...

and a wonderful drawing!!!

(it says: "you are pretty and i miss you from Oliver", just with spelling mistakes and words added in randomly and in odd places!!!)

I was spoilt with lots of yummy homemade food, sweets and hot chocolate all weekend!! We also went to a cafe which seemed to have a star theme, and they were the tastiest stars I've ever had!!
I also got to see the little fairies that live around my room..And also my cat, who I adore!! His name is snowy, which you may find odd as he is black, but I was 6 when I named him and I thought it would be funny!! However as he has got older, the most wonderfully magical thing has happened... little white flecks and patches have begun appearing on his fur, making it look like he is covered in snowflakes!! I am sure it is because of the name :)I have also been watching lots of films over the weekend with my family! We watched; a cinderella story, snow white, star wars, the nightmare before christmas and an old mr blobby video!!

My little brother became rather Mr Blobby obsessed, and requested that I make him a mr Blobby out of my clay, so, of course, I did!!
After such a wonderful weekend, there were lots of tears this morning as I left and made my way back to uni on the train.

But I am back, and have a working computer again, and was able to read all the wonderful comments left for me over the weeknd, so thank you, lovely bloggers, for making me smile!!!

One last little note, my boyfriend has joined the blogging community!!! His blog is called Bitmapbox and it would be so nice if someone would visit him and give him a warm welcome!! He is an animation student, and is rather good at it :) Recently he made a father christmas I made out of clay on the computr, and I love it!! You can view it on his blog :)

I must go and make me and D our dinner now, so thank you all again for being so sweet and take care!! x

Cupcake stool, pink socks and new Alice in Wonderland film!!

For my art project I am basically making a piece inspired by my childhood and recreating memories but with me and what I look like now. So I had to buy some props and I thought I would share with you the amazingly cute stool I found!!

Its a cupcake stool!!! How wonderfully cute and adorable is that???? It was £10 from TK Maxx and I LOVE it!!

I am supposed to be working on my research at the moment as I have things due in for uni next week but am really not feeling like it!! I want to just get on and do studio work!!

Heres a quick little piece I did yesterday:


The line 'I'd like a pink pair of socks' is from The Sound of Music where Maria first meets the children and Marta tells her what she wants for her birthday. This is one of my favourite films ever!! :)

Also I am very excited because Tim Burton is making a film of Alice in Wonderland, due to be released in 2010!! How exciting!! I cant wait!! Johnny Depp is playing the Mad Hatter, which I think is PERFECT, and I found these pictures of Alice, who is played by Australian actress Mia Wasikowska, in a google search:

I think the costume looks amazing, I wish I could dress like that everyday!! :)

Ive just realised this is a very long post and if you've read this far thank you :)

I'd better go get on with some work now, hope you all have lovely days!! x
