Happy Easter!

Hello, I know I'm a bit late but hope you all had a good Easter!

Due to Holy Week coming to an end and me waiting on my friend to be ready to meet me in the pub I thought I'd do a religious necklace blog post.

I seriously have loads of rosary beads, but for some reason my necklace collection only has one in. Probably because I don't really wear them as necklaces, sometimes I wear them as bracelets but usually I just keep them for display and prayers.

The glow in the dark rosary beads necklace I got from Lourdes. Pretty sure the shop sold about 5 of them for 1 euro so bought a lot for presents as they're so tacky/cool haha.

The gold necklace is my St. Christopher necklace who is the patron saint of travellers. I got this necklace from ASOS for about £4-6 (can't remember how much exactly)

That's pretty much it!

Get your five a day.

Hello there!
Everyone loves fruit right? Well my necklace collection seems to show that I do....I didn't realise I had so many fruit related items! Anyway, here's what you're after, the photos.

The collection in full.

Orange/red apple - H&M. Little fruit pot (you can't really see it in this photo sorry!) Claire's Accessories £4 and knitted apple - Love from B - luck dip bag :)


Apple, strawberry & watermelon friends - Claire's Accessories, but I got it off ebay for £2.49! and "Betty the Banana" from Love from B, again in a lucky dip! How lucky!


Smiling yellow apple - LLROK and smiling yellow banana - Lazy Oaf.

I hope you like my fruit. I do have a strawberry necklace on a long gold chain from Evans but I can't find it at the moment. Hmmmm.
Whats your favourite fruit? x

Catdog

Does anyone remember that cartoon? I still remember the theme tune!
Back to necklaces....I don't really like actual dogs and I dislike real cats even more (sorry animal lovers but they're really not as good as you make out!) but I seem to like cat/dog necklaces.

The cat necklaces are from LLROK from lucky dips. I also have a kitty on a keyboard necklace, but like princess hot dog I can't seem to find it? The sausage dog is from ASOS. The first sausage dog I bought came with a broken clasp so I emailed asos and they sent me a new one and didn't even ask for the old one back! My dad fixed the clasp, apparently it was easy, so I have a spare to give as a present to someone (or sell on ebay).
Cats and dogs in necklace form are definitely better than the real thing.

Take me to the fun fair!

Everyone likes the fun fair right? And what better way to show it than wearing a cute necklace:

The carousel is from LLROK and only cost £4! Its amazing and every time I wear it people admire/play with it. The glass of pop is also from LLROK and the mini chilly vanilly is from Love from B.


The horses move round!


And what trip to the fair would be complete without some junk food! The blueberry donut and mint choc chip ice cream are from Love from B and the princess hot dog necklace is from LLROK. I got the photo off a website, but I do own this necklace, she's just currently misplaced :(

Time for Tea

I'm not really the biggest tea drinker, I don't really like hot drinks in general if I'm honest. I only really seem to drink coffee if I'm out with a friend and drink tea if I'm at my great aunty's. I do like tea, I just never really make myself it.
Having said that I have some tea related necklaces.


The blue felt teapot was in a lucky dip from LLROK when she closed down the shop. Sniff. The knitted "lemon tea" I bought for myself from Love from B. She makes cool knitted things, not just necklaces (though I've obviously ordered some). She's currently selling all stock in luck dips as she's going to go a relaunch which I can't wait for! Sorry the photos aren't the best, but hopefully you get the idea x.
