Let it Snow!!!

This is the lovely snowy view of the car park from the studio window, beautiful!!!

Secret Santa Day in the studio!!

Santa Has come early to our studio, Today was secret Santa day, £5 spend but what will he bring?? I had the lovely job of Santa's Elf this year and had to hand all the presents out!Poor Collette! Santa got stuck in the snow and couldn't deliver her present till tomorrow! Ok It's my fault I got Collette and was the only one to leave my present at home with the cat!!

Nick got a cress head, which I think looks a lot like him!!

Look at my little happy face!! Santa bought me Reeves & Mortimer dvd!!

Santa bought Craig Steve Wright CD, Classic!! Who's to cool for school now!!

Helen got Australian Dollars, Well she is off on there on Saturday, isn't Santa thoughtful!!

Steve and his Subaru mouse mat, nothing else would have done!!

Lovely cups!!

Paper cup fun, love these papercups, think of all the fun words and rude words you could spell out in cups!! These funky cups are from a design studio called He was Born!

Let it Snow!!

A little bit of snow and the world goes mad!! The most annoying thing is getting to work took an hour and a half to do 8 mile and there s no snow on the roads, whats with that!!!
I love the snow, i think it makes everything look beautiful! I feel really Christmassy, if only we were allowed to drink mulled wine at work and watch home alone, I'd make a good boss!!

French Wedding!

So what a weekend! Jetted off to France on Friday to be there for a friends wedding! So much food and drink I was worried I'd have to pay extra to fly back for the added pounds!!! Was a beautiful day! Congrats Nick and Becks!!

My designs!

I Was in Tesco's the other night and saw a couple of my designs in there! Did these ages ago and completely forgot! Nice surprise!

Movember!!

So Movember has hit the facial hair growers of the world!! For some this comes easyer than others!! The guys in the studio are taking part and have dedicated a whole wall to the best moustaches they can find!!
