Favourite Things Spring Fair!

After the success of the first Winter market, Favourite Things is having their Spring Fair market this coming Saturday, 1st October! Im really looking forward to it.

There are some vendors that have come on board for this market, so expect much more! It will be happening at the same space - Unit 7 in Wembley Studios, which is just opposite Wembley Square. The time has also been extended for you early morning shoppers too, doors open at 10am and we'll be selling until 3pm! LOTS of time to make sure you get all of your favorite things :)

There will be snacks and drinks available, as well as credit card machines and EFT facilities, for those of you that don't carry cash.

Looking forward to seeing you there - please come say hi if you do come, its always great to meet your readers :)

Have a happy Spring week everyone!

I wish I could go on holiday every month!

I just got back from the most awesome-est of holidays!

GREECE!

My boyfriend and I went to the small Greek Island of Skopelos, which I found out after arriving there that this was the island where they filmed most of the film: Mama Mia.

We spent a night in Athens on the way there, and on the way back, so I got to tick off another lifetime dream of visiting the Acropolis - Parthenon. It was unbelievable to be standing next to this majestic building with so much history! It felt completely unreal. I would definitely recommend going if you ever get the chance.

Skopelos is beautiful! Such a quant little island. We spent most of our time on the gorgeous beaches, our favorite being Kastani Beach (ironically, its the beach that they did a lot of filming on for the movie). The weather was hot! An average of 35 degrees celcius everyday, with nothing but stairs to climb! Because the town is build on hills, and the roads aren't wide enough for cars, the town is basically a maze of narrow, stone paved streets with thousands of stairs. And although the island is pretty small, it has 365 churches!

I had the most amazing time, sad that's its over, but so grateful that I got to experience it! Nothing like a holiday to make you feel like a new person!
