Things spotted online


Lately I have got a little addicted to Pinterest. I like it for finding ideas and inspiration. It is particularly useful when the pretty pictures leads to links of blogs with tutorials, but frustrating when it leads to nothing. Here are some of my favourites:

These would make beautiful centrepieces at a wedding or something similar but the website didn't lead to anything useful. The picture itself though is pretty.


These little teacups with their succulents are gorgeous but something so breakable would be a mistake in my flat with the three monsters.



I love the use of light and plants here and the website it's linked to provides the tutorial on how to do it yourself. Perhaps after the move I might give it a go:



The paper designs used for this paper chandelier is so fresh and works well together. Would perk up any dull room! Reminds me of an old flatmate as it is so her style. Wow! Just checked out the original website and this baby would set you back over £300, think I would rather give it a bash myself!:



I wish I had found this cake sooner as I would love to have attempted something like this for James' birthday! Although I have no idea how they managed the texture! Cake decorating is so not my thing but I would love to produce something like this for someone I loved! How impressed would you be if you got this monster!



I love this embroiderd elephant from Skunkboy Creatures whose blog I love and I am also a little jealous of! 



And of course I need to finish off this little post with some of my fave crochet gems I have found.










(This one was linked to a website that must not exist any more, it was just an advert for a domain name).

So these are a few of the little gems I have come across in my boredom and obsession with Pinterest. I just hope I use inspiration from these guys to actually make something rather than waste hours away just looking at the amazing things others do! Anyway, best be off, got a long line of nightshifts coming my way and I guess I better get into nightshift mode to survive them. Have a good weekend! I sincerely hope the weather is dull so that I am not sleeping through the nicest weather we have had so far - I bet that's what will happen too!
