I don't often post photos of "life" things, but today was such a lovely day that I thought I'd share some of the snaps I took. Enjoy, and I hope everyone is having a lovely day! (Or is about to - it's still Christmas eve for my American readers! Make sure you go to bed before Santa gets there!)

| Dinosaur jars I made for my boyfriend's sister, re-purposing some old jars and dinosaur toys, following Kitten Bear's awesome DIY. |
 |
| A whole heap of presents for a very large family!! And our teeeny little Christmas tree (we got the tree too late and so had to settle for something small. I think it's cute though.) |

| An amazing Christmas breakfast spread, featuring mini pears, dates, mascarpone cheese, pomegranate, mango, cherries, nectarines and peaches. Yuuuum! |
 |
| Present from my boyfriend's parents - Chemistry mugs!! The nerdiest/coolest gift. Here it's filled with some hot chocolate because it was cold this morning (it's definitely not a typical Australian christmas)/ |
 |
| The present my boyfriend got me! Unfortunately it didn't arrive in the mail in time, so he made me this card of it, featuring Princess Bubblegum - It's a SOLAR SYSTEM MOBILE!!! Hahaha I am so excited for it to arrive :) |
 |
| And what I got for my boyfriend - a Kindle which I loaded up with a whole bunch of science fiction and David Mitchell's autobiography. |
 |
| And of course - a snap of the Christmas outfit I decided on! (and OMG my real - and very windblown - hair!) Dress is c/o Koogal, sweater is vintage and shoes are from Asos. |

Love the dinosaur jars and oh my gosh look at all those presents! Your outfit is adorable, your natural hair is cute!
ReplyDeleteAw it looks like you had a really nice Christmas. Your solar system mobile present is sure to be awesome when it gets to you! I love your outfit too. Such a pretty dress. Your real hair is so adorable too!
ReplyDeleteI love how more and more of your scientific side is being revealed. Where has it been all this time? I saw those dino-jars, and was like "where do I get them"; now I see how you made them! So cool, and totally do-able. Certainly a possibility for future gift ideas. And as usual, love the outfit, but of course that's a given with you. Merry Christmas!

Proceeded to show family members your dino-jars idea. I think I shall ACTUALLY give it a go over summer, with whatever toys I find in op shops. Yat! <3
ReplyDeleteawwwwww yay! that sounds like an awesome idea. They are really so effective! I want to make some to store... something... colourful in.
Deleteaw and thanks for showing your family haha :)
Third comment, new record. In response to your comment, I did find they slipped a wee bit, but after a bit of fiddling, they got their grip just fine (the clips I mean). And I am loving my new title of 'lilac fairy'
