Idol

Last night was my mum's birthday, and as a little present to herself, Ellie and I, she got each of us one of these:

 A little bit about the "author", Emily Martin, whom I adore.  She has a few blogs, which my mum and I both enjoy reading.

Her all-things-artsy blog:  The Black Apple 
Her fashion-y blog:   Some Girls Wander
And the blog that goes with her paper doll book:  Milkland

So I highly recommend checking her stuff out, because her stuff makes me all squishy in its awesomeness.  A little steam punk, a little period, a little fairy tale, a little traveling circus, and a whole lot of awesome.
