Ada & Inca

So Inca is still mighty p**sed that she now has a sister, but slowly she is getting used to her company. Ada is so naughty compared to Inca she constantly tries to steal our food, and dives into her litter at any opportunity just to hear the noise of it all scattering on the wooden floor. I'd be lost without these two little devils.
Also check out my parrot vase, awesome or what.

Caught in your web

Who doesn't like cobwebs, especially on their clothes? I've wanted to make a cobweb print day dress ever since I made my ridiculously ott one for Halloween. I used a Butterick pattern that was supposed to be easy but I really struggle following patterns as I have a short attention span! Anyway I don't think she turned out to bad, I also made a little belt and turban to match and she was worn on Valentines Day, to Tesco as I'm a real classy gal.
It's not just the lighting, I have red hair now, and like half the length it was, still think I will go back to black eventually but I'm enjoying the change for awhile, if anyone could recommend tips for brows and ginger hair I still keep doing mine black aha. 












My bruised Valentine fell off his bicycle hence the gnarley bruise - he's okay!

Salem


It helps that I've always wanted to be a witch since I was little, thank The Worst Witch for that. But when I started watching Salem on netflix I fell in love with the exquisite costumes by Joseph Porro. I'm definitely hankering after making my own Anne Hale dress all cinched bodice and big ol' skirt, and all the capes oh boy they are too divine.

Say hello to Ada

Hello there! Is anyone left harhar. I'm a terrible blogger! Me and Benji decided Inca needs a new friend, we were pining for a black rex so I popped an email to the lovely breeder we got Inca from to please let us know when another litter was due and she happened to have one tiny smoke left who was the only one to survive in her litter, poor little mites. So last weekend we made the drive up the winding hills to Derbyshire and met our little baba, we will hopefully get her on Valentine's all being well, isn't she a beauty?




Inca with her beautiful Mama Purdy, she is such a sweet natured lady and very protective of her little baby, I wish we could take her home with us too!
