Merry Christmas everyone

I know right, can you believe Christmas is literally round the corner. This year I have been super unorganised and have literally bought nothing. So this year I have set myself a little challenge. I am going to try and make some gifts.

So the first DIY I have done are the famous 'Sharpie Mug'. Now I couldn't find any of the sharpie paint markers so i used posca pens instead. So I have made these for my two house mates and my mum and sister. Everyone loves mugs and they can be used for so much more than just drinking a good cuppa tea!!!

So first of all you will need a selection of cheap plain mugs, nail varnish remover, paint pens and stickers.

I'm not all that creative so i went with the monogram letter dot design. What I did was print out some letters in a variety of bold fonts onto some sticker paper. once I stuck the letters to the mugs and chose the colours i wanted the dots to be. I chose silver and gold as I thought it was very christmassy!!!
once you are happy with your design peel the sticker off and leave to dry fully over night. In order to be able to use the mug without damaging your design you will need to pop in the oven at 220 for around 45 mins. Make sure you let the mugs warm up and cool down completely with the oven to prevent cracking.
Your mugs are now done!!! Make sure to only hand wash them so they last longer!!!!

And hey presto you have the perfect gift for quite simply anyone!!!! I hope you have enjoyed this little DIY and if you give it a go please share what you make using #lovehayleybeth

As Always

Christmas Wish List 2016

Hello there!!!
Can you believe December is literally round the corner? Where has this year gone?
Now as we all know December can be one of the most stressful months when it comes to shopping. So to help all my wonderful friends and to give you a little bit of present inspo I have put together my or Christmas wish list.
So here goes!!!

The first item on my list is clothes. now this isn't because I just cant be bothered to go shopping. It is actually because over this last year I have put on quite a bit of weight (although that does not mean I am unhealthy) and I had to give away my entire wardrobe. I literally have like no clothes at the moment and not that much money!!! Luckily I am a size 16 now which means I can get clothes in both the regular ranges and the more curvy ranges!!!

The second item on my list is a macbook air. Now I know this is really unrealistic but they are just so beautiful looking. They are also super light weight which means I would be able to blog more often and keep an eye on my new jewellery site much easier.

The next item on my list is quite simply a giant Body Shop haul. I am quite simply obsessed with the Body Shop and always visit my local store whenever I am in town. I absolutely adore their face masks and would love to try out some of their make up range!!!

I admire Zoella and everything she has achieved which is why I would love it if I could own pretty much here entire beauty and home range. the packaging alone is just gorgeous and I can only hope to be half as successful as her.

The fifth item on my wish list is my favourite perfume!!! Yves Saint Laurent Black Opium is the one perfume I adore yet cannot afford.

Unicorns!!! That's all. I love unicorns and I will love anything with a unicorn or a lipstick called unicorn.

And finally it would be great to receive some crafting supplies!!! I am addicted to washi tape so fill me up a stocking and away I go!!! I would also love some craft punches (i think that is what they are called) they would add so much to my crafts and scrap booking.

I have also put together a wish list on amazon containing all the items i would love. Now before you say it this is not me begging for you to buy me anything. That is not what I want. This is just a fun little blog.

Now I wish you good luck in all your Christmas shopping and if you are looking for a great stocking filler please head over to my depop page!!!

But for now
