DIY PLANT POT.

Sunday, February 05, 2017





















Last week I bought a cute little cactus, it was potted a standard cement pot and I knew I had to change it. I had some left over tester paints from previous projects, so I decided to get crafty and paint the pot. I love things all gold and copper, so I painted the lower part of the pot a rich gold complementing the top half with a calm blue. The two colours work great together and have turned a bland and boring pot into a cheerful home for my pretty cactus!

Gail's Bakery

A pretty wet weekend was cheered up by a visit to the recently new artisan bakery GAIL'S in George Street, Hove. Popping in for some lunch, the cakes, breads and savoury treats were beautifully displayed in the store. I decided to try the pesto, tomato and mozzarella sandwich made on freshly baked sourdough bread. Followed by a naughty and indulgent white chocolate and blueberry muffin!

The interior and seating is modern and relaxed, with its open brick walls and simple wooden furniture, we spent a a good hour or so chatting away enjoying the food and environment alike. Upstairs has a few large tables encouraging people to share the space. 

The service was friendly and welcoming. They took a while to bring us up some milk for our tea, and as an apology they asked us to pick a loaf of bread to take home for free! To be fair I think they were giving away free loafs of bread to certain customers due to its opening week, but never the less, it was a lovely gesture and I picked out a pretzel poppy style loaf to take home, which we enjoyed the next day!
