Photo Collage
Hello everyone!
Thought I'd share some of my recent Instagram snaps with you - putting together a photo collage is very satisfying!
My Dad is here this week doing lots of DIY, and I hope to take some pictures of the house progress over the next couple of days. It makes such a difference having pictures on the walls!
Have a fab day.

Polaroid Style Prints
Hello everyone, I hope you've had a fab week so far!
Printing my own photo's at home has always been a bit hit and miss. I used to fork out an absolute fortune for Canon inks and Canon paper to go in my yep you've guessed it, Canon printer. In order to try and be a bit thriftier, I then tried cheaper inks and paper, only to disappointed with the quality and slightly faded colours.
However, since then my style of photography has changed, and the cheaper inks and papers actually give me exactly the results I love - a slightly faded, vintage feel. My face lit up when I went into the Pound Shop the other day, and discovered that you can buy packs of 50 6 x 4 photo paper for, ahem, £1. Which quite frankly is a bargain.
I decided to try printing out some of my Instagram pictures, and I discovered that by formatting them to print in the middle of the paper with a border, and then trimming the top off, I had these really rather lovely vintage Polaroid style prints. Perfect for making a lovely mini photo album or scrapbooking. Or hanging on a picture washing line, or even gift tags...so many fab possibilities!

Hello everyone!
This is a super quick post as I need to dash to work in a mo, but I just wanted to let you know that I've made my Instagram public, hurrah! I had a major spring clean and took out the selfies taken by my children, and voila, you can find me here. Now I just need to get my tech head on tonight and work out how to add a follow button to the blog, I may need wine for that...
Have a fab day everyone!
