product thoughts #1

Lush's Rose Queen Bath Ballistic
"run yourself the perfect temperature bath, get in, then take a moment to let go of the world outside your bathroom, before launching your ballistic into the water amd watch it fizz away."

I loved this lush product because of the vibrant colour, the strong floral scent and the rose petals that disperse through the bath once put in the water.  It did not create many bubbles but it did leave my bath water a lovely pink which helped me to relax and enjoy the stillness. 


Rating 7/10 - not my favourite but a very pretty product overall.

not instagram worthy #1

We are living in an era where popularity is measured by the number of likes on a photo, how many followers we have and the mutual friendships that develop. I am the same. Spending more time than i should making sure my upload has the correct angle, light exposure, saturation, caption etc etc - im sure you know what i mean because we all edit our pictures, but are we satisfied with how our mini art projects are judged by those who see them? 

I want a space where i can put nice looking photos that have a meaning without the crave for 11 likes - numbers are better than names. I can also develop a point in a paragraph compared to a three worded caption or an array of emojis. Welcome to not instagram worthy

this is my make do windowsill which is really just a wooden box. It is the resting place for my giraffe, penguin and pascal, also my fairy light jar and letter L. I like the plain aesthetic this creates but I need something to fill the front space. I might buy a cactus🌵.
