Cat Crazy Saturday

Happy Saturday!
This weather is crazy!
It's SO hot in London!
So I think we should all be doing a spot of this!
haha!
This pic is funny but kinda gross too!
All the local kitties are flat out around here, perfect for me getting my cuddles!
p.s.
To beat the hot weather we've been drinking this iced
And it's so good!
Have a fantastic weekend
And make sure to put sun cream on your kitties ears if they're white!

Friday Favourites

Hi!
I am SO glad it's the weekend!
The weather is so lovely lately
We went to the park earlier to sunbathe and it was just bliss!
It's Paul's birthday next weekend so I'm trying to think of some little surprises for him
Excited!
What are you up to this weekend?

Here are my favourites this week!

I love this tip for Autumn!
I love Summer, but I'm actually looking forward to Autumn
If you want your house to smell heavenly, boil some orange peels with 1/2 teaspoon of cinnamon on medium heat
haha
I do love Ariel though!
I love this teen power couple pencil set
Jordan Catalano
 *Sigh*
I love the jewelry from this designer
Especially the rings

♥ Monday Etsy Loves ♥ La La Loves ♥

Happy Monday!
Today was going well, then ended up a bit crappy!
Oh well, when life knocks you down get back up and kick it back!
It's easy to be a grump when things go wrong (especially me) but it's important to try and be positive!
When I feel a little blue I usually grab Sisco and hug the life out of her
Or I'll find myself wandering around the streets in a zombie state looking for a cat or pup to cuddle
"Come heeeeeeere, let me hug you"
What do you do?

1. Morian
This pillow is really sweet!
2. Asf2003
How amazing is this Mario light fixture?
3. Sweet Sallys Soaps
I love anything coffee scented and this sounds amazing!
4. African Grey
Cutie? Oui oui!
5. Rainbow of Crazy
Aww!
It's like a doggy Harry Potter!
6. Shop Feverfew
I LOVE this shop!!
This is on my wish list!
7. Sweetest Elle
I love these vintage cupcake toppers
I'm actually really looking forward to Autumn!
8. Imagery Woodworking
Such a great idea!
Hope you found something you like
It may be Monday, but I'm off for a well deserved glass of wine!

Cat Crazy Saturday

Hi!
This week has gone so fast!
My friend Nia booked a hotel for us in Manchester as a late birthday present, so I didn't get back until Friday night
She gave me this ice cube traytoo
Isn't it amazing?
I'm been pretty absent from my blog lately, I've just been so busy and I took some time off for my birthday
But I'm excited to be back!
It's Paul's birthday on the 23rd and one of his presents arrived today
And I've kind of told him what it is
I need some sort of muzzle around birthdays!

Onto this weeks finds

This ribbon is beautiful
I don't have anything to say about this apart from
Awwwwwwwwwwwww x a million!
I love this print
I don't know where this is from, but I need one for Sisco
This kitty paw bookmark is a cute idea!
Give your furr babies a big kiss on the nose from me

Clairey Birthday Bonanza!

The reason for the name of the post is due to the fact I like to try and make my birthday last at least 3 days! haha!
Luckily, I have a boyfriend that puts up with me!
So, for my 30th we went to lovely Brighton
All the pics are from my phone, as dopey me forgot my camera!
I'd charged it and put it in the case ready aswell!
Oh well!
As soon as we stepped off the train the fresh, sea air hit me!
Lovely!
We've been quite a few times, so just decided to mooch around and enjoy the weather
Luckily the weather was gorgeous, despite all the bad forecasts
Ahh, the power of positive thought! :)
I know it may sound cheesy, but I truly feel alive when I'm near the sea
That's one thing I really miss about living in Wales (And family and friends of course-haha)
It was so hot, but the breeze was lovely!
Bliss!
I saw a lot of Fish & Chip shops had these sharks outside, bit strange!
I love the packaging, so cute!
I'd mentioned before that I wanted to get my main gifts from Etsy and I did!
Support handmade!
The pink quartz is from Paul's parents and the silver cloud is from Paul
As I've always said 'Dreams are necessary' I thought the cloud was quite fitting
The rings are from these shops in case you want to check them out
Pink quartz - Oh Kuol
Cloud ring - MIKOTITI
I love them both so much and the sellers are lovely

We had to visit the amazing Snoopers Paradise flea market
I could spend hours in there
I really wanted this little guy
When I was younger I was totally OBSESSED with trolls
Isn't this beautiful?
I loved this chair so much
We stopped for lunch at veggie restaurant Food for Friends
We got a starter and main special
It doesn't look to pretty, but the food was really good!
This beer is really yummy and refreshing

Amazing clouds on the way back
The day seemed to go so fast!
When I got home this was waiting for me!
A lovely card and cute postcards from the lovely Beth!
I love her artwork and her cat print is one of my faves
Thanks Beth, you're a sweetie!
I had to share this card my friend Nia sent me
Amazing!
Lovely flowers my mum sent
Other gifts I got was candles, lots of smellies and money! (Yay-My credit card was happy)
The rest of the evening we just cuddled up on the couch, got a bit tipsy and watched the telly
I couldn't have asked for a lovelier day!
I think Sisco wanted some champagne!
It's so funny, both Paul's parents and my mum sent a box with my pressies in
And in both was a little package for Sisco with treats in
So spoilt!
