These are a few of my favourite things #2

Books:

Altered Clothing by Kathleen Maggio

I’ve been looking for ways to be more sustainable with my 

clothes. I loaned this book from the library to get some simple 

customizing ideas. Great for beginners such as myself.

Seeking Slow by Melanie Barnes

This book celebrates the importance of slowing down, 

and taking time for yourself. I found it surprisingly insightful

 with a lovely cosy, warm feeling to it.

Six Weeks to Zero Waste by Kate Arnell

I’ve been taking some positive steps towards a greener lifestyle 

and learning about looking after our planet. This was one of the best, and 

most extensive reads I’ve found regarding the growing waste issue. Arnell’s 

writing is down-to-earth, and encourages us to make changes big or small.

Spotify Music: 

Closer to the Truth by Cher

Although released in 2013, I found this album on Spotify just 

before Christmas. It has a feel-good, disco vibe with empowering lyrics.

Revolution in Me by Siobhan Donaghy

Siobhan was an original member of the Sugababes, and their debut 

album, ‘One Touch’ is one of my all-time favourites. I would recommend 

‘Revolution’ as it has the same kind of vibe and was my favourite album of 2020.

Films on TV: 

The Mask with Jim Carrey

I’ve watched The Mask a handful of times as a kid and re-watched it at the start of the new year. For those who don’t know, we follow a bank clerk who finds a mysterious mask in a river. When worn, the accessory transforms his character. It’s a classic, and Jim Carrey plays the lead character very well.

Internet:

Blog: www.handmadecharlotte.com

Charlotte has a beautiful blog, filled with colourful and unique 

crafts for all ages. I can’t help being inspired every time I visit.

Lifestyle:

Unicorn Decorated Tissue Box

My Mum gave me this decorated tissue box. 

Available at Asda for those of you who are curious.

I love the unicorn/rainbow design.
