Purple Dissapointment

So I ordered this hairdye from the UK to try out, as they don't sell it here in Australia.

I did not remove the blue/black from my hair, though it had faded a little bit.

So now my hair is Cab Sav in colour, though the bulk of it is still black.

However the purple that appears on my blonde roots is not the purple I was hoping for.

FAIL! Though for some unknown reason the hair dye was cheaper to buy on eBay from the UK than in the chemist here in town = MAJOR FAIL!!

Maleficent Commsion

I bought the cute Knave of hearts from Wonderland Contraband and once he arrived I immediatly ordered a maleficent, since they didn't have one already she became a special design just for me.

In a few short weeks she was done and on her way.

ReVamp! The Black Vest

Time again to revamp another piece of clothing

(specially since I sold the last item I revamped)

I'm stating off with this black vest I got at a sale a while back.

I've worn it couple of times as is but have always wanted to do something with it.

First things firs, I will add this cute little lace bat to the fake pocket of the vest

I already have some matching thread to sew it on with.

I got this bat ready made from etsy

 Next step is to take the boreing black buttons off and replace it with these vintage look pirate buttons

I bought 10 of them ages ago, I need 7 for this vest

 Then I was thinking of adding some purple lace to the flaps of the fake pockets to make it uber femanine but am still not 100% sure I will do this

Wish me luck!

Will post a photo when I am finished

Happy Easter Everyone!

Really what better way to celebrate easter than with a packet of Screme Eggs Minis ( I freakin LOVE halloween) and a nice new bottle of Rose to try out

Cool New Item

I'm bad at this blogging thing, but I'm trying to remember to post often

So just a quick one today, this is the cutest little charm EVER!!

I've wanted something from Wonderland Contraband for ages and am bitterly dissapointed that I missed out on the red riding hood ring.

But Knave of Hearts is pretty good!

From the Tim Burton Alice in Wonderland Movie

You can get a free chain with your charm if you choose but I opted not to as I am designing a rather intricate choker around the charm.... or will eventually. Right now its on a thin black chain with metallic red hearts dangling off it, but I WILL get to it at some stage - right now its an "everyday necklace"

So mostley these are made to order but I got this one ready made so it came much faster. It arrived safetley in a little box with a purple ribbon around it.

This is definatley the first of many

Crazy Times!

The weather was pretty grizzy all Monday, then Monday night the weather just went off for a few hours, huge gusts of wind and absolutley bucketing down.
Then all of a sudden in the middle of the night, while I was already in bed, it just stopped!

It was strange but I thought nothing of it till the next morning on my way into work. The roads were covered in mud and I drove past at least 4 abandoned cars just left by the side of the road. It was eery.

Then when I got into work the workshop had been flooded and the mechanics wouldn't be doing any work all day.
Later, on the news, I learned neighbouring town (about 4 hours drive away) had been hit by a mini tornado...... TORNADO??? In this country, bizare!

So work was weird today as I only had one single follow up call to do.

Then when I went off I headed to Dan Murphy's to see if I could find an obsure liquor I had just heard about, there was none, but it wasn't a total waste I got all patriotic to the homeland (nearby to the home land anyways) and bought this bottle of Kirsberry. I have yet to try it but it sounds great. 100% natural and made with just cherries.

I did manage to get a Rose as well. Bird in Hand Pinot Rose. Will try that tonight after dinner.

Had to do the shopping this arvo but Woolies didn't have any veggies, stupid flooding cut off the food supply again (getting use to that but wish I wasn't ) so instead of the usual chunky veggie and chicken soup we normally have on wednesdays we will be having Sri Lanken Chicken Curry, as there seems to be no shortage of meat still.
