Bee happy ..... decorate your bedroom for Christmas

I  have decorated my bedroom for Christmas.
 
 
Because it is all nicely decorated I am also entering this competition with Warren Evans to win a wonderful Riverford Christmas hamper.
 
 
Because my wallpaper has raspberry colours I decided to use a red/white/silver theme.


 
I have just made this rag garland and wreath and thought they would be perfect for in here.





 
I have made up some small jars filling them with Christmas decorations.



 
A heart make from awhile ago looks perfect in here.




 
Handmade stockings at the end of the bed ready for Santa to fill.


 
Matching wrapping paper too.


 
Will you be decorating your bedroom this year?

Bee happy .... try some new glasses


I was recently asked to pick a pair of glasses from Firmoo to try for free, www.firmoo.com

I had just had by eyes tested and had a new prescription so decided to give it a go. I looked on Firmoo’s website and there were absolutely loads of frame styles and colours to choose from. They do glasses for prescription and non-prescription so if you see something you like and don’t need to wear glasses you can still pick something just to look good as a must have fashion accessory.

I went on line and had a look around until I found this pair of glasses which I absolutely loved. I filled in the order form with my prescription details and emailed it off. It only took a couple of days from filling in the form to receiving the glasses. The service was brilliant, it really impressed me.


 

My glasses came in a hard protective case which is handy when you carry around glasses in your handbag. There was also an extra pouch which included a small double ended screwdriver and spare screws for the glasses in case I may need them in the future.


After trying on my glasses I was thrilled with them, they are comfy and stylish and I’ve had lots of compliments already when I wear them.


 
Even the owls at Chatsworth were impressed with my new glasses.

 
The Big Bad wolf at Chatsworth wished he had some glasses like mine to hide his big eyes.
 
When picking glasses Firmoo even have a Virtual Try-On System. You can try on the glasses with your own photos, 98% of their customers have found their perfect match glasses by this way.

Glasses instantly update your look by wearing different styles, and at these prices you can afford to keep changing your look.

Firmoo are offering my blog readers a chance to try their glasses for free, you just need to pay for the shipping costs. The prices vary so there will be something for everyone.

Firmoo say “Firmoo has launched a First Pair Free Program to people worldwide. You will absolutely fall in love with the excellent quality, affordable prices, fashionable designs, fast delivery and the good service after trying them with paying shipping only! You even can get a refund/exchange if you are not satisfied with them. It's totally Risk free, so why not have a try?”

If you are interested but have some questions you can get all the answers at http://www.firmoo.com/help.shtml.

Bee happy ..... get a present in the post

Last week I was lucky enough to get a wonderful present through the post from Littlewoods.
 
 
They sent me this gorgeous knitted hat, mittens, scarf and lip balm set to review.


 
The scarf set is so soft and gorgeous.
 
It is in a large knit with a fine silver thread running through.

 
It was my birthday this weekend so what better place to test out my present than Chatsworth?

 
The weather was freezing and frosty.

 
My new present kept me warm and toasty all the way around Chatsworth gardens.

 
The Nivea lip balms are all great and protected my lips against the cold, I think my favourite was the milk and honey :) 
 
It was comfy and warm to wear and the neutral colour goes with lots of things.
 
Head over to Littlewoods to shop a wide range of winter warmers. 
 
They have a fantastic range and I'm sure you will find something wonderful.

Bee happy ..... visit Harrogate

I went to the Knit and Stitch show at Harrogate this weekend with my lovely neighbour.
 
 
There were some gorgeous pieces of work on display.

 
This hook work was carried out by Hooked by Design there were some wonderful pieces here.




 
I especially loved this piece with the bees on :)
 
I bought some fabric from this stall, the french style and patterned which you will see later.
 



 
Great ideas for makes using the fabrics they stock.

 
Bought some pale pink velvet, hearts and small floral fabric from The Shuttle. The lady and gent here on this stand were so kind and had such a large range of gorgeous fabrics with them.

 
My buys, bundles of faded florals, red linen, grey and blue lace, paints for my screen printing in gorgeous pastel colours, I also got some sparkly buttons, wool and a heart trug.
 
Very pleased with my buys, just have to start creating now :)
