As I'm not American...

...and my husband isn't interested, I spent my day making one of my entries for Etsy's Handmade Moment Video contest. This is the funny one - and we had SUCH a laugh making it.

Huge, HUGE thanks to Holly @HauteCountryVintage for helping out - and to Joey for recording the music for me - kisses and loves.


Please go check it out - it's worth 30 seconds of your time - promise!

Photography... My turn...

So I've given it a whirl - I'm quite please with these shots - I had to take about 50 billion lol, out of which I got maybe 10 I liked, and I'm slowly adding them to our art shop. It's strange - I never feel strange about posting vintage - probably because it's removed from who I am in a way, but when I posted my first photograph for sale the other day I was actually shaking as I hit the finish button.






Maybe it's because it's actually something I'm taking seriously, and I do care what people think as it's a reflection of myself. My drawings are silly and fun - and I'm not that bothered if people think they're child like, because they are. But these... I care about these.


So be gentle if you comment - I'm only learning after all.

Vote For ME!

I somehow managed to get myself (blythehopesvintage) and my Husband (thisthingcalledlife) into this week's voter on etsy.

So go vote! I've never been in a gift guide - though loads of my photos have - and I'd be so happy....
