Christmas is coming!

 Hello!

As the title says, Christmas is coming. And that means Christmas gifts and cards.

Yesterday I started making the gifts (how early of me..) and next Sunday I'll try to get the cards done. Or Friday.

Anyway, thought I'd make a quick update post, show you the first gift I got done. And something else. :)



^ And here it is! Silver and different shades of red.


^ And here's a picture of a train, taken inside a train.

I was actually visiting Nummela once again almost two weeks ago. I had a class reunion and it was so much fun to meet most of the people and see how everyone was doing nowadays. Too bad no one had a good camera, so we didn't get any pictures taken.


^ And our cat Pöpö trying to make my life slightly harder.

Aand that's it for now. Again. I'll do my best to get the next post up as soon as I finish making some of the Christmas gifts and cards. 

Byebye!♥

New stuff!♥

Hello!
It's been a while. Again. Damn.

Not only have I been busy with work (still), but I've also been sick with flu. Ever since September, but last week it got so bad I had to take couple days off to get some rest. And I'm still not completely done with the flu. But I'm getting there, hopefully..

Anyway, I wanted to share some pics of couple new things I've gotten, and a sneak peak pic of my latest project.


^ My very first Kalevala jewellery! They're quite expensive (imo), but I got a giftcard to the store and I only ended up paying 9€ (they're 59€, if anyone is wondering). Going to add something to the backpiece, to make them stand out more, and fit the new bracelet below.



^ The bracelet I got from Bijou Brigitte. So I paid more from it than I usually do with my jewellery (since they're almost all from eBay..). Lovely black filigree bracelet 14,90€ I think.
And the earrings are from eBay, around 1£.

 

^ Sneak peak! They're wings. Lot's of them.

And I cut my hair! It used to be long enough to touch my boobs, but now it's just past my jawline. And now my hair looks and feels so much better.

.......

Mmmm, what else. I'll try posting again soon, the biggest problem is to find time and place to take pictures of the stuff I've had. It gets dark very early and with my crappy Lumia it's a miracle if I can get a decent pic..

Anyway. I'll start doing my make up so I won't be late from work.
And here's a couple of pics of things I've been making at work.



^ Dummy cake for  our store window and a 18th birthday cake.



^ Babyshower cake and a christening cake.


^ Winter Snow Castle cake closeup.


^ And the whole cake, made to feed 250 people. It was fun to make, but damn did it take time too.

.......

And that's all for today. I hope you all have a great week and try not to get sick!

Yves Rocher order and what has been keeping me busy.

Good afternoon!

Nope. No eBay posts yet. I'm still waiting for some stuff to arrive, so it'll take some time.
But I did get something else!

There was a sale at Yves Rocher, so I thought, why not. I'll be saving a lot of money, plus get to try something new.

And I got a surprise gift with my order. Which is meant for people older than me but.. Sure I'll use it.

Here's the stuff I got!



^ Eau de Toilette - Lily of the Valley, Hair mask and night time cream for older skin. And a "Green book".

Best part is definitely the hair mask I got. First one that has actually worked for my hair. It makes my 'crows nest hair' so soft and smooth. Definitely worth the money.

And the Lily of the Valley Eau de Toilette! It smells fantastic, just like the real thing!

Lastly, I was quite unsure about the night cream, mainly because I'm not the target audience for the product, but I decided to give it a shot. So far so good. Usually night creams are way too greasy for my skin, and in the morning my skin feels very oily and nasty. But this one seems to be just fine. It absorbs very fast, smells nice and doesn't do anything bad to my sensitive skin. I like it. :)

And now for the next part!

I've been away from blogging for quite a while, thanks to me having so much work. So I thought I could at least share some of the things I've been doing there. Not to mention that the last few days before the next month we'll be very very busy. We'll be making a huge 450+ people cake for an event at Helsinki, and it's going to need a lot of decorations.
And I'm the one usually responsible for most, if not almost all, of the decorations on the cakes and cupcakes. But I do some of the baking too.

Anyway, here's some pictures from the past couple months.




^ Birthdaycake and a 1-year cake for a production company.



^ Small wedding cake.


^ Birthdaycakes

^ Company cupcakes and a gluten-free cello birthdaycake.




^ For Addams Family cupcakes!


And that's all for today, I hope I've got time to post next week, if not, I'll at least try to make a quick post about not having enough time >_>!

Anyway, Byebye!♥

Just too busy.

Hello. Just wanting let everyone know that I'm still here, so far still kicking, barely. I'm so busy with my work lately, so I don't get much time to do anything.

I will, however, do my very best to get a new post up next Sunday :)

And till then, I bid you all farewell, have a great week, hopefully not as busy as mine.

Bye♥

Magazine & eBay! + Sorry for lateness!

EDIT:
Post below was actually written on Sunday the 15th. But I was so tired I had forgotten to actually publish it.. And realized it now! Laame...

Anyway.. Here it is, slightly late.. 
.......
.......

Good evening!
Well, almost good night. I should be asleep already. I need to get up early tomorrow, since I have a meeting with an important person. I'll tell more details later, when I find out what the big deal is about. But apparently it might be something great?!

Anyway, probably a busy week coming. We'll see. 

...

So I was thinking I could tell more about those magazines I got! I read them again today and took some pics to show. There were some pretty nice things there, and I really liked some of the ad pages there. Yes, I'm a sucker for pretty ads.. >_>

Anyways, here are some of the interesting things I found!


^ 1. A new perfume from Katy Perry. Yup! A sucker for ads. I need to check this baby out next week.
2. And those shoes! They just look gorgeous :)



^ 3. Another pretty ad. This time from The Make Up Store. They have great eyeshadows and lipsticks!
4. Most delicious looking pages in the magazine. Yum!



^ 5. & 6. More pretty ads!♥



^ And then another magazine. From Glitter actually. I really loved the look this small booklet had. And the themes were great. I picked some of my favourites to show.





^ Had to pick these two for the last. Couple things I'd really love to try out at some point! Tiedye, long perfect waves and a floral headband. 
Thought I've heard that those hair chalks don't really stick to naturally red hair :F

.......

Mmmm! Wouldn't believe how much I had fun just from reading those magazines.

Next is some of the new stuff I've gotten.
I'll add the pics and then tell about them under those. Tadah!



^ I went to the Sokos mall yesterday after work. There was a "Buy two Lumene Narutal Code products, get an eyeliner for free." Can't say no to eyeliners. 
So I got myself a facial clay mask and a glitter nail varnish (red, blue and silver glitter). And after testing them out yesterday, I'm very pleased with them.
Not to mention that Lumene Narutal Code products aren't that expensive either!

.. I should've gotten myself a new mascara, while there..


^ Got a cute pink basket for my crafts! :D
And the pink polka dot thing is another eyeliner, from Korea (possibly..). This is my second one, and I really like it. It's the kind that you can just peel off of your eyes when you want to remove your makeup! Very nice :D


^ And then some of the eBay stuff I got! And some others. The first three I've gotten a while ago (wouldn't be surprised if I had already posted about them. Can't remember.). They're from Kone Helsinki. And in the second picture all the nail varnishes I got from Korea. From brands called Lioele and Etude House. And a friend gave me the black nail caviar. Still haven't tested it. But it looks fun!


^ And last, but not least! A new liptint. I'm also a sucker for these babies. I've wanted to have an orange one for so long and I finally found a promising one. And I love it. From the picture you can see how well it works, with just one coat! Very lovely. Lot's of freckles.

.......

Anyway, that's all for tonight. I'm getting really tired and as I told you, I need to get up early. So, see you next week!

.......
.......

Soo... I'll try to get the new post up later this week (the one I was supposed to post today..). 

But a small report of my past week.

It indeed is something big and important. The thing I had on Monday. It is also the reason why I've been very stressed and tired this week. But maybe it'll be worth it.

I also went and got myself that new mascara. And that Katy Perry perfume. It is heavenly!

But yeah. I am so very tired. I'm off to bed.
Good night lovelies.
Byebye!♥
