SilverDolphinCharms order!


My adorable purchase from SilverDolphinCharms on Etsy.

I saw this cookie cupcake and had to have it. It's so cute! I added a lobster clasp and it is currently living on my Pennybridge.
Delivery was quick and it was packed beautifully!
I will definitely be ordering from Sophie again, in fact, I just did! A Molang charm will be on it's way to me soon and will make the perfect addition to my fauxdori. But I'll have photos of that in a new blog post!

Kawaii Studios order


It was marked in my planner. 8pm on Sunday 13th September..
The release of the adorable Halloween charms from Kawaii Studios!

I made my order pretty quickly and I'm glad I did because pretty much everything sold out!
I got my hands on exactly what I wanted- the super cute pumpkin planner charm, the shy ghost planner charm and a blue star necklace.

In this photo you can also see my first Kawaii Studios order of the blue cupcake and my emote charm from Cloudy Cow!


As you can tell they match my monochrome filofax perfectly! It is completely decked out in planner charms and yet I want more!
I will probably be keeping these charms on all year round they are just so cute.

Again, fantastic quality items and they are even more adorable in person!
Delviery was great too, bought on the Sunday evening, dispatched on the Monday and arrived on the Tuesday!

Cloudy Cow Halloween order


What's this? Another order from Cloudy Cow?! Yep!
I was waiting with anticipation for the release of the Halloween stock, I could have bought everything but gave myself a limit.

First the "un-halloweeny" bits, I bought some bunny washi tape and a hot pink planner charm!
Halloween wise I bought some cute ghost and mummy stickers who all seem to be having a party! Some black spotty washi tape, happy pumpkin washi tape and some washi with cats, pumpkins and witches hats on.
I got 2 pens, one black cat one and the other has a cute pumpkin charm on!

I have already decorated my Halloween week with everything and the month of October in my pocket planner, personal planner and journal! I'm so excited, I just love Halloween and October is my favourite month so I'm taking full advantage by getting in the spooky mood during September!

#happymail from Cloudy Cow


I can't seem to help myself.. My poor bank account! But boy does it make me happy when I receive new goodies in the post. And I'm completely obsessed with Cloudy Cow!

I actually made 2 separate orders but will speak about them both, I had to wait for my wages to go in to make the second, I also needed to make my mind up on which washi tape I wanted! But I got some undated inserts, weekly (photographed) and monthly (not photographed but in the planner!), 2 heart washi tapes, a bronze chevron/line washi and pink bunting washi. Also another ice cream pen which are in the pop up section, meaning there is a limited amount, I needed another one though as they are so nice to write with! And finally I got a new charm which is a very cute emote face! (but not photographed!)

As usual everything is great quality and I am super happy with it all. Delivery was great too, dispatched on the Friday and both parcels arrived on the Saturday!

Kawaii Studios order


I cannot tell you how much I ummed and ahhed over buying one of these adorable cupcakes when they were restocked the other day.
In the end I just thought 'what the hell!' and then spent 10 minutes trying to decide between the pink one and the blue one. I chose the blue and the next time I checked they were out of stock! So very pleased I finally made my mind up!

I can't get over how cute this little charm is.
Not only is it cute it is very well made and I'm super happy with it!
Very quick delivery from dispatch and it arrived in such cute packaging.

I have been following Ruth, the owner of Kawaii Studios, for a while now on YouTube and also her shop on Etsy. It was only last week, after I saw she was restocking, that I decided to take the plunge and purchase one of her pieces! 

I will definitely be ordering from Kawaii Studios again!

Cloudy Cow order


I had been wanting to make an order with Cloudy Cow for a while and after Daisy, the owner of Cloudy Cow, mentioned she was getting some Halloween stock in, I decided to hold on until then.. but I couldn't wait! 
So I got an order in and the day after it dispatched, it arrived! It was packaged perfectly, very cute but also secure.

Very reasonable prices and obviously checks pens before sending them (I have had issues before from other shops where pens have arrived and they have literally no ink!), the ice cream pen writes beautifully. It has a small nib and black ink so exactly what I love to write with!
Of course I had to get the bunny magnetic bookmarks, some washi and the adorable Totoro pencil case. The sticker sheet was a freebie on offer for that weekend!

I am completely obsessed with the Cloudy Cow website now and will have to rein in the spending when the Halloween stock is in!

I recommend Cloudy Cow 100%, super happy with the service, prices and the quality of the items.
Can't wait to put my next order in!

Butterfly Filofax Setup


I decided to switch out of my domino and go back to my butterfly for a bit!
I love my butterfly but my peeve with it is that the rings are a-okay until I put the innards in. Then the rings start spacing.. I shouldn't complain too much as they are in line and I have no issues with pages getting stuck but it just gets on my nerves sometimes!


I bought the butterfly from Colemans around March for £22. I just love the colours and the way the pockets are set out on the inside. I also love the butterfly print which is funny as I am terrified of butterflies! I like prints and things but if one is flying towards me I will be running in the opposite direction!
It isn't completely packed full but the notebook at the back makes it seem that way. I don't mind at all though as I love chunky planners!


This is my favourite part! I love opening this filofax because I can fit all of my sticky notes and things into the pockets.
There are paperclips everywhere of course. I made the bunny and pink ribbon ones myself, the fox was from a pack from The Range and the butterfly one was from a pack from Sainsburys.
I also made the dashboard myself after finding that adorable picture on Google!


This is where I stick all of my to do lists for around the house as this filofax doesn't go out with me. I made the dashboard and the project life card myself.


Next I have a top loading pocket with some project life cards, some stickers and a spare page marker.
On the sticky note I have just made a note of where and when the next Invictus Games will be held!


Next up are my dividers! I made these to match this filofax but also added these huge Frozen stickers I got from a magazine. (Yep, I really am 23!)
I won't go into each section as it is all personal but this first section holds my extended diary/journal. I tend to use it most if I'm having a bad anxiety day and just need to vent!


Behind this divider is where I keep note of my passwords! Not 'important' passwords but passwords for my games like Sims, Ark etc. 


Behind this divider is actually just some spare note paper - lined, grid and plain.


And finally this divider doesn't really have any use so I moved my sticker pouch behind it.


Here is a little close up on my planner charm. It is one of the trolls from Frozen which I got from a kinder egg and just added the pin bail, jump ring and strap.
I love turning things like this into planner charms!


I love this planner and I'm feeling a sense of relief now I have moved back in! 
Who knows, maybe next week I will be in my monochrome but for now I am somewhat settled.
