About Me ♥
 
 
I am Rachael (or Rachie). I am 20, a university under-graduate and I live near Penzance, in Cornwall, England. I am currently studying for a BA Hons in Journalism studies, and I am hoping to start my own shabby chic business, by selling my own creations. If you want to read more about me and my creations, you can view all of my previous posts. I am interested in all things vintage and shabby chic. I love Cath Kidston and Kirstie Allsopp and find their creations a true inspiration. I love all quite unusual things, especially homemade, but I particularly love old  DIY'd furniture, vintage fashion and jewellery.
 

I use this blog to write posts on Shabby Chic and Vintage, and I am a massive bargain-hunter, so expect to see lots of posts about my discoveries, and shopping hauls from car boot sales and second hand shops. I am a huge fan of Kirstie Allsopp and her homemade vintage and as a hobby, I love to create shabby chic objects for the home. Whether it be furniture transformation or scented hearts for your draws. I am very crafty, and I post some of my DIY projects on here such as sewing, interior design projects and homemade gifts.My blog is somewhere for me to collect together all the things that I love about life, and photos, people and discoveries that inspire me.

 Frequently Asked Questions♥

How old are you are where do you live?
I am 20 years old. I was Born December 17 1992. I was originally born in Wolverhampton but moved to Cornwall when I was 3 years old due to my parents job but also for a better quality of life. I left to live in Bristol in 2011 as I began to study my Journalism Degree.

What made you want to write a blog?
I have always loved writing, even since I was a littler girl. As I also study Journalism, I have found that writing a blog would be great experience but also sharing my interests with a wider audience. Having a keen love for all things vintage and Shabby chic, I also knew exactly what I wanted to talk about :)

How can you describe your style?
I wouldn't say I have a specific style, however I do love all things vintage. I have recently found a love for tea dresses which I buy from small boutiques in Penzance where I live. I really enjoy the 1950's-70's era of fashion, especially with vintage jumpers and jewellery. I really like to express the femininity especially in my look but also the items I create. I don't spend a fortune on my clothes, Most of it i buy in sales, or off Ebay as I do love a good bargain! Eventually, I would love to start making my own clothes (I shall keep you posted).

How can I get in contact with you?
