My name is Emma, I’m a twentysomething dilly daydreamer, who lives and works in Manchester, UK.
I have recently fulfilled my dream of opening my very own shop that is full of handmade gifts and paper goods. It is still very small but I’m hopeful that it will grow and blossom into something rather wonderful.
I adore handmade and vintage homeware. I can often be found mooching about carboot sales and charity shops, hoping to find another treasure to adorn my home. I have just become a very keen gardener, although still a novice you can follow my adventures in the back yard. I also love learning new crafts so this is my opportunity to be creative and share all of my hobbies and passions, with a bit of foodie love thrown in.
Congrats on your Freshly Pressed post! I’m glad I found your blog there- fun. And hopefully some projects to try soon!
Check me out at theusualbliss.com sometime!
What a whimsical, colourful space — I love it! I’m so glad I was lucky enough to stumble over here from FP this morning. (:
You are wonderful! Best regards from Poland.
Tag, you’re it!
Hi Emma! I am stopping by to let you know that I tagged you in a blogger game called Blog Tag. It is a game for fun to encourage communication and interaction within the blogger community. Why I chose you? I chose you because I want to share some joy with you. And that is important: It is supposed to be fun, no duty. If you feel called to participate, that is great. If you feel called to not participate, that is great.
To find out more please take a look at this link to my blog post:

Much love,
