I got  a new desk for my office, the old one was WAY too big and took up so much space. I still need to put up a tonne of shelves in here, get a small set of draws so I can put my printer on them and actually have my sewing machine out, and sort out the bookcase situation (being that it’s COMPLETELY rammed with stuff).

My pin boards feature some lovely things, there’s an envelope there that my good friend Magasin/Sarah sent. It has a kitten being attacked by Godzilla on it. Also some finestimaginary designs, lady luck rules ok’s little black book, lots of lovely business cards and a wooden fox necklace prototype.

I know you love my kitten calendar & original furby.

Hey guys, how’s this raining turning out for you? My feet are freakin’ soaked :(

Getting a cold in summer is the most ridiculous sickness ever. It started last week with what I believed to be hayfever (LIES!) and by Thursday I was sneezing around the office and drowning in tissues. I went home to my sickbed (full of two kittens who would NOT let me sleep), and drowned in even more tissues. On Friday, Adam came down with the same illness, apart from he didn’t get double teamed with a asthma-related cough. Thus, no weekly good stuff was published (apologies, I’ll do a good one this week). I’ve recovered now, though, and am fully functioning.

You’ll be glad to know that the kitchen worktops are resting in place (zomg, kitchen!), and soon enough we will no longer be washing up in the bath! The new studio has underlay down, too, ready for it’s carpet scraps (don’t ask, we’re broke and being frugal). Also, we brought the wii and the xbox home this weekend ♥

I’m still ridiculously shocked about Michael Jackson’s death, he was a pioneer! I’ve been singing thriller more than ever :( Me and my driving instructor spent my whole lesson on Saturday talking about it, sad times, sad times. I honestly would not have been as shocked if Britney had croaked! This video upset me more than it should have, too…

Poor convicts, all they had was MJ :(

I’ve been added a few new favourites to my etsy hearts this week so I thought I’d do a bit of a round-up of the things I really love on there at the moment :) Don’t forget, you can visit finestimaginary’s etsy store here!

I’ve told you that Adam and I are currently camping out in my parents study, right? Well, here’s ‘home’. It’s cosy, if hella messy… at least we have a big TV :) I’ve added notes to the photo on flickr so you can more understand the disarrangement.
