What I did with my first day of my week off

So today I start my blissful week off from the pub, yippee. It is well deserved after working so many hours on the lead up to the holidays. So today I slept in late (really late!), watched some Buffy (season 2), Band of Brothers (episode 1 and 2) and Top Gear, had a Pizza delivered for tea and made this:
Ive been playing with ideas of what I wanted to do with the bow since I picked some up in Primark (only 5op each). I have 2 white, 2 deep purple and 2 black to play with as well as 2 heavily chained gold necklaces (£1 each). I finally decided this was the best design. And I am so pleased with how it turned out! What do you think. The bow has a brooch pin on the back and the necklace chain can be detached so it can be used as a brooch as well as a necklace. I intend to do the same with the black and purple only with different coloured beads and silver chains. Would anyone buy one of these if I listed them in my shop (which you can find here) because I'm thinking of taking a trip to Primark to pick up some more bows, if they have any more there!

Thats all I really have to say for today as I have no outfit post as I have not got dresses all day! lol!

Oh but don't forget to enter my Audrey Hepburn competition here as it will be ending on Thursday night!

  7. What a good idea!

    P.S. I used a French seam on the jersey (google it) but apart from that, yes it is just sewing the ends together. Super easy!
