0 Mega Post

Hi, I guess I'm not really the most dedicated blogger-but hey we all have lives! So as I said last year if I miss a week or more of posting I would have to give a 'Mega Post' a big post o your latest updates on T.B.W...

I am loving pastel tones with grey!

In outfits too...

Red head drawings...

Simple,

 

This was drawn using coloured biro pens!!!

These were also drawn with biro pens...

This picture apparently took 100 hours to complete...

Outfits with Blazers look so cool. Try with dresses shorts and anything casual to turn the outfit into a trendy one!

Hope to see you again!

0 Some Cool Blogs

I love finding new blogs, today i've done a post about the blogs I've recently found...

Cat Versus Human

I love the look on this blog bright and clear. It's a woman who makes comic strip style illustrations about her and her cat and they are so good.

Post secret

This blog is an art project for peoples secrets which they write on a postcard and send in anonymously. I really like the concept and its so interesting to see them all. A whole archive since 2005, this is purely a no-fuss looking blog focusing purely on the secrets.

1 'a great read'

Hey there, a good book is the ultimate way to finish the day-I know for me it is anyway. Nothing beats a good book to cosy-up with so since recently finishing one I thought I'd tell you about it...
To begin with it's a new author I thought I'd try out and read, Lauren Oliver. She's also done a book called 'Delirium' (which I'm reading). Anyway, It's a teen novel about a popular girl who dies and relives that same day over and over until she makes the right changes. After realizing this, she notices so many things that led to that particular day she died. How the girl who was scorned upon bottled up a secret that would have made things go very differently. How certain things are meant to be and how each minuscule decision has massive impacts to your next path. Each page literally makes you want to carry-on to see what one person say back to the other because after-all she gets to chose what ever she wants to do for her last day...

My Rating: 5 stars (I loved it!)
Ages: Teen-young adult but to be honest books with age guides shouldn't really put you off if your older  than it because it's about the actual story and you either like it or not.
Would I recomend this book? : Yes! I already have
Cost: New, £6.99 places like Amazon and Ebay will be cheaper
Release Date: July 22nd 2010

I urge you to read this book or if you have leave a comment about what you thought...

0 Hello 2013!

It's here and there's no doubt that many people are taking up new years resolutions or making a start on something new. Today I thought I'd share with you my blog resolutions seeing as I can't commit to making personal ones!


No. 1
 I wanna try to make my posts more interesting for you to read and interact with. I'll try to put more pictures and videos because I know that the one thing I don't like to do on blogs is read a chunk of text-so sorry about that post a few days ago I needed to say a lot !

No. 2
 I will try to post more regularly but this will be hard with personal stuff going on and so I can't promise but-will try!
 
No. 3
 With this one I want to try and develop more of the T.B.W's blog look. Now I know I change my blog layout a lot but there are a few things I still don't know how to do and when I do there will be less changing so once I've worked it out it will be finally DONE.

No. 4
 A new page will come for 2013 a brand new shiny page but this is a surprise for now because I need to build things to go on it...

No. 5
  Finally I will include more ways for you to get involved like more polls, more ways to share and comment and easily. Getting comments, no matter what blog you have is really encouraging so by making it easier for you to do this will mean more feedback on things to improve and certain things you like on this blog

 

 

Looking forward to this year and I hope you are too! Have a great one guys...

 

With love,

0 Just to say...

So, Christmas is over and I guess we've all spent the past few days soaking in the last few of the Christmas spirit that's left. I made some 'Pear Pies' which basically are Mince Pies but much nicer (to me) because they have bits of pear inside instead of the filling in Mince Pies. You simmer some butter, brown sugar, cranberries. pear and cinnamon in a pan and after a while you begin to smell the ingredients all together and it's divine (and that comes from someone who doesn't even like Mince Pies!) I also made some Christmas punch which was mulled wine without the wine and some Raspberry Swirls. Present wise I got some craft  bits, quilting rolls, an amazing gingerbread all-in-one,a CD and after with some money I had I bought a studio mic for my singing and stuff trouble was it went faulty so we had to return it and tomorrow I'll be collecting another. I've loved Christmas and hope you have too. An update is need for my last Saturday styles and there will be one final one in Saturday. After, I will put up a poll for you to vote on your favorite.The next Saturday Styles will be in next year. Now, I've got to go finish painting my walls-pink...

1 Christmas

Hope your getting excited-I know I am. I love Christmas, it's what I look forward to all year and it's worth the wait just to get that sense of morning joy as you open the presents. But I do love those 'all-the-trimmings' meals you eat and T.V specials you watch with the family. I love getting the decorations out of the loft and turning our house into a Christmas one. Have fun this Christmas!

4 sleeps to go...

Love,
