Things I love this September

Y Watching the Great British Bake Off every Tuesday night. These guys are really inspiring, they really make me want to jump in my kitchen and make something straight away. So far all I've managed to rustle up is a lemon tart with a meringue top. The tart was delicious, but I won't mention what happened to the meringue...

Y The true return of Autumn. After this afternoon’s rain and wind, there’s no mistaking it for anything else!

Y Posie’s new ornament kits for this Christmas. This year I have not even tried to resist – with new postage pricing to Europe, it would almost be a crime not to order any! I cannot wait to get them, make evrything, and show you.

Y Ramen soups – my favourite at the moment. So clean and healthy, yet super yummy.

napkin rings

A couple of months ago I posted about hand-made napkin rings, but at the time I didn't know just how popular they would end up being at my wedding.
Not a single one was left on the tables the next day, every woman had taken theirs home - and that of their partners!

Honestly, girls, this is one easy project if you are looking for a beginner DIY project, and the good news is, you don't have to make 60 like me! I think a set of 4 or 6 would make an ideal Christmas present...just think about it and give it a try. The tutorial is now also listed on the right hand side of the screen.

I would love to see your creations if you make this project.

And talking of presents and all things exciting - here's another snap of my big day, and the favours I made with my beloved Atina's help. Couldn't have done it without you!
