Photo Shoot Preview

On Monday we held a little Easter picnic in our garden, and combined it with a photo shoot for some new Pointless Pretty Things products. It was so fun! I made a ribbon backdrop and set up a lounge area, and we ate lots of food and drank tea from teacups. Thanks to two of my beautiful besties for being wonderful models. 

I've been working on this new range of wedding accessories for a while now, and I am SO excited to finally release them next week. 

Hope everyone is enjoying the sunshine...

Coming Soon - New Sparkly Wedding Stuff.....

Lots of exciting things happening in the studio this week! I am in super making mode at the moment, working on lots of new prototypes for the wedding season... I am right in the middle of designing and testing a few new lines for the Pointless Pretty Things shop, which will be released soon, but I just couldn't wait to share some sneaky pictures with you! 

Expect luxe, sparkly copper tones, new breeds of paper flowers, and most excitingly.... a whole range of flower crowns! I just can't wait to reveal them all soon, but for now - back to work...

I'm also now accepting custom requests from brides with a vision they want to accomplish for their wedding - so if that's you, and you have an idea you would like help realising, just drop me a message to say hello at pointlessprettythings@gmail.com.

Hope you have all had a lovely Tuesday,

Pointless Pretty Christmas: Reader Discount!

Just popping in with a little shop announcement! I've been working my early xmas socks off this week to get some special festive items up in my shop - and here they are! The Pointless Pretty Christmas range is full of lovely wood slices, moss, felt and of course big red bows. I thought I'd share a few of my favourites with you here. 

I am so grateful for all the support you lovely readers have given me since Pointless Pretty Party opened a few months ago, and as a thank you I want to offer you 10% off all orders until December 20th! Just use the code PPTReader to claim your discount. 

Don't forget I do custom orders - so if something you see in the shop inspires you, or you'd like something personalised, just send me a message :) 

Happy Thanksgiving to those who are celebrating it today! I'm lucky enough to have an American friend who threw a friendsgiving the other day... So much sweet and savoury goodness... 

Thanks so much everyone - lots of love to you all!

New Garlands in the Shop

I finally added my new paper garlands to the shop! My favourite is the "Yay you're home" banner, which started as a welcome home for Jake but has stayed up in our living room ever since. And you've seen the orange alphabet before, it lives above my desk. I have plenty of ideas for more garlands, and I will also be accepting custom messages - so stay tuned!

I just can't get enough of bold typography in home decor at the moment... Has anyone else caught this bug?

Pointless Pretty Party

Hooray - My Etsy shop is finally open! It's definitely just a baby at the moment but I have lots more pretty things to be added in the next week or so. I just had one of those moments where I thought "if I wait for it to be totally ready before I open then it will never open!" So here it is, a work in progress but something I'm very excited about building as I go along. 

In other news, you may notice the blog has had a little spruce up! I just wanted something fun that was a bit more in keeping with my style... Hope you like it, I'm still working out some of the kinks so let me know if anything is looking a bit weird on your browsers. 

Thanks for sticking with me over this busy couple of weeks... Sometimes I can be more of an over-thinker/planner than a do-er and having an online network of amazing people geeing me along is exactly what I need! 

The blog is back in business :)
