On Instagram in November

Wow, so here we are in December! I can't quite believe it, this year has flown by! Today I'm looking back at my birthday month of November through my Instagram photos. If you would like to, you can follow me on Instagram here

It was a super busy month preparing for The Renegade Craft Fair in London, so I was very busy knitting, stitching and planning. I've been a little quiet on the blog front in November while getting ready for the fair, but I'll be back in full swing from now on!

I like to watch iplayer or listen to music when I'm working. The First Aid kit album is my favourite at the moment, love their folky sound!

The Renegade Craft Fair was such a great weekend! Such a lovely atmosphere. Hi if I met you there! I chatted to lots of lovely people

I discovered the lovely Pompom magazine at the fair. I spent a few evenings relaxing after the fair weekend, so magazines, knitting and tea it was!

I live close to the water in Essex and I love getting out for walks by the river. It's pretty even when it's grey and chilly

Thank you to Mr Writer, as part of my birthday present he bought me this fab tea Advent Calendar from Nothing But Tea! Such a lovely idea, 24 different teas and a chocolate for Christmas day! My favourite so far has been a Black Tea and Roobios blended with pear and marzipan- it tasted like cake! Do love a good cup of tea

Lovely Nelson cat. Sadly his sister Daisy passed away earlier in November, so it has been very sad, but Nelson is enjoying lots of cuddles (even at 5.30am when I took this pic!) 

I hope you have had a lovely November. I'd love to see what you've been up to!

I feel re-energised now after a very hectic month and I'm ready to get festive! I'll be back later in the week with some Christmas gift ideas.
