How are you?
Thank you so much to all of you who left such sweet comments on my last post and on Instagram about my presentation earlier this week. What I didn't mention at the time was that the presentation was part of a job interview... and I GOT THE JOB!!! I'm absolutely over the moon and so excited about getting stuck into a new challenge. I can't share much about it on the internet, so I propose we all pretend I'm going to be designing hats for the dinosaurs at the Natural History Museum instead (I'm just as excited about my actual new job as I would be about doing that :p).
I spent yesterday trawling every shop in Brighton for new Grown Up Clothes and gorgeous stationery (because a new job is definitely the best justification for the adult equivalent of "Back to School" stationery shopping), and decided to pick up some extra bits to share my happiness with you lovely lot by hosting a giveaway!
-----SORRY, SWEETCHEEKS - THIS GIVEAWAY IS NOW CLOSED-----
So, here's what you can win:
The prize includes:
- A Cuckoo kitchen timer in hot pink and orange*.
- A circus mug
- A Parasaurolophus rubber/eraser
- A box of teapigs' Popcorn teabags
- An illustrated tea towel from Paperchase.
- Possibly a bunch of other stuff, depending on whatever catches my eye when I'm wrapping it up. Probably a Twix.
The tea towel isn't available online, but luckily I bought myself one too; so you can see the full pattern here:
Your tea towel won't be this wrinkly, I hasten to add. Believe it or not, I actually IRONED this before framing it, but somehow made it more wrinkled than it was before!! I really don't get ironing...
To be in with a chance of winning send me a compliment about my hair just follow the steps in the rafflecopter below by midnight TONIGHT**. Good luck!

* The timer is boxed, but I took it out for the photo so y'all could appreciate its full glory.
** Editor's note; this originally stated the giveaway closed on Sunday, because I'm incapable of counting out seven days. Thankfully my new job doesn't involve numbers.

Yay! I'm thrilled for you! You crack me up. And your hair looks sensational...xxx
ReplyDeleteHappy new job to you!!! You and your magnificent barnet will completely rock it.
ReplyDeleteCan I go old school with my favourite stationery and pick one of those fat pens that had like four different coloured pens in?? Those were bloody marvellous. Now I'm all grown up I do love a posh rollerball pen jobby but those fat babies will always have my heart.
