A Christmas present from my sister as a nod to my slight obsession with London
I was given these fairy lights as an eight year old and have since lost the thing that plugs it into the power point (wow getting a bit technical here sorry) but thought that they look nice just as they are.
My crown collection ordered into when they were made
I collect postcards every week when I go to orchestra and this is what I do with them
The wooden stand with the music clefs on it was made by me in a woodwork class at school a couple of years ago and the embroidered fairy was a gift made by my mother when I was eight or nine.
I didn't know what to do with this old ironing board so I made it into a necklace holder which actually works surprisingly well.
A box arrived from England recently (as my sister had just been there) and in it were many Harry Potter-ish delights. This shrine was quickly formed.
Spare flowers for Crown making
A china doll with my birthstone on its necklace and my first ever pair of shoes
Another example of my British obsession
I have never had a curtain for this window and the light always wakes me up so I took matters into my own hands and hung up a rap-around skirt. My other fairy lights, a bag and a mobile that my sister made for me.
Two excellent books that my sister found for me in London
My (sun)glasses collection
This one has a rather sweet story behind it. I once mentioned to my mum that I didn't think star signs work because I only had the 'bad' Scorpio characteristics. The next day I came home to find this in my room with my mum telling me that she wanted me to look at this every day because every single thing on here is a characteristic that I possess.
Whether its true or not is now irrelevant as every time I look at it I remember that my mum loves me.
