Sunday Catch Up: Artwork, Moving, Look After Myself.

Bonjour!

I hope this weekend is going well for you all :) This is my favourite part of the week, because I get to sit back, organise my workload, take stock of how the week has gone, and pamper myself a bit. Though as a freelancer, I can work to any schedule I like; I do enjoy keeping Sundays as those days to chill out still.

This week I've been creating a lot of artwork, both simply for myself, for my Etsy shop and for custom work people have booked with me. It's been awesome overall, but my tablet did die on me this week and cause such a hassle, but that's all sorted now thankfully! My favourite creations have been the 'Girl Power' print shown above, and the cute heart garland shown below. I love anything girly as you can see!

Sunday Slumber

Happy Sunday everyone!

I hope the weekend has been kind to you, whatever you've been doing. Some of you may be wrapped in a duvet reading this, some may be on their way out for a day of adventuring. Me however? I plan on spending the whole day taking blog photos and organising my schedule.

I've had my blog schedule planned for September for aaaggges, but I think I want to mix things up a little. I have some new ideas for posts I'd like to work in there, which I think you guys will like. So yeah, all about organising and prep today! Fun blog things basically.

Hi guys! Happy Sunday!

Usually I write these posts of a Friday or Saturday and have them go out on a Sunday, chatting all about my week and what's going on. I bloody love these posts!

However as you know this week was The Girl Gang event, and since Thursday I've been totally exhausted to be honest! So I didn't really have time to write the past few days. However I'm here today, and I finally feel like I'm getting some of my energy back - and I wanted to check in! After all, I do love our Sunday chats.

I've started my new art journal, which was something I swore I'd do as soon as the event was over with, and I'm SO happy. I've decided I'll work on it every single day, however I feel. I might paint something (like above), collage, sketch, or just write in it. Either way, having a daily creative outlet again is lovely; I thoroughly recommend it.

Sundays are great days for relaxing, taking stock of the week and preparing for the next one; even if you work from home and have no real concept of the days (like me). It's something that will likely always feel that way for me, since Sunday was always chilled out day at home growing up.

So these days even though I'm still probably working on a Sunday (okay let's be honest, definitely still working), its the day when I'm most likely to finish a little earlier, or make time for a relaxing bubble bath that evening. It's the day where I'm more likely to stay in my pjs' and have movies playing in the background. I really enjoy these days, everything just feels a little quieter.

This week has felt really creative for me, in a range of ways. I've collaborated with some small businesses on design work, I've experimented with some makeup looks (which I'll feature on here soon!) and I've made sure to make time to paint for myself, not just for customers. In fact, I painted these two (below) a few nights ago, and I'm quite pleased with them. I'm not sure what I'll use them for yet, but I think I want to do a whole range of character paintings like these, for a collection.

I did it again didn't I? I totally messed up my schedule and I forgot to do my Friday Five post this week, eep! Forgive me. I'm trying to make up for this by doing a Sunday Six this week. So even more random lists for you guys to ponder over, what more could you want?!

Six things that scare me;
1. Heights 2. Spiders 3. Very small spaces 4. Being alone 5. Being forgotten 6. Creepy girls in movies
