first day of teaching.....

well i had my first day of teaching experience today, andy can honestly say it was fantastic!

we actually did an art gallery visit so not exactly my first day of classroom experience but it still counts, i met around half of the students on the 2 years of the course

real classroom experience tomorrow, straight in at the deep end teaching an hour myself!

new direction....

thought i'd announce the new direction.....well old idea but finally following through with it.....i'm going in

i got on a PGCE teaching course! 

ok so i'm doing it part time instead of full time like i'd originally planned to but not really the point, just means it'll take me twice as long! i'll be a teacher in two years instead of one. makes sense really since as a fashion graduate/general creative person academic subjects are really not my strong point, my 2nd class was yesterday and i already have required reading that is very academic with lots of long words and is generally quite scary. 

but there we go, in two years i should be a textiles. fashion teacher, as long as i find a placement soon for my require student teaching hours.......

random lovelyness


That pleasure which is at once the most pure, the most elevating and the most intense, is derived, I maintain, from the contemplation of the beautiful.

the wonder that is blogspot.....

randomly i thought i'd let you know blogspot people, i checked my stats today (PS LOVE STATS!! its so much fun to look at hehe)  and randomly i have a follower i cannot see (i would love to know who your are anonymous? just if you happen to be reading.....) and i have 946 pageveiws (makes me feel quite good) but why on earth are the majority from 1. the united states (possibly understandable) but 2. russia????????

some final project things

uploading photos from my camera and found i few final major project photos, so it didn't end quite the way i'd wanted it to but the interim photos don't look to bad

remind me of the things i want to re-do just for myself really, thought you might liked to see the photos anyway










from the top - studies of other designers work, more studies, inspiration, one of own designs, technical designs, selection of technicals more designs and work in progress photos, lingerie designs, more lingerie designs, and finally logo design!

i'm definitely going to look into the lingerie again, i enjoyed designing that so maybe it's an avenue i could go down. the eco bridal wear is something i'm going to stick with just because i'd really like to do longterm, i'm starting to consider my on business, since i don't really do so well stuck in a office being bossed around..........but i don't really know if i've got the self control to run my own business? i would really have to be nocturnal, since i'm off work today and didn't get out of bed until 12:55.........

more photos of stuff to come

loves xx

p.s just incase any student or work person or anyone else really finds my blog and decides they really really like my work, do not steal it! i know its a sad world when designer-makers, bloggers etc have to say this but as i have expressed in this blog before my work is copyright. steal it/use it and i will find you. on the other hand, i'm always looking for work, and will happily consult with anyone, work with anyone, or freelance for anyone. just saying........

New arrival........

Thomas the rabbit!

Yes we adopted a bunny rabbit! Because I was missing a furry thing in my life, and everyone needs a furry pet! Loves tickles and strokes but not very comfortable being picked up, he's a little bit nervous

Anyways there's our big news so night night
