Nameplate Competition Winner
Somehow I decided that making my first bloggy video would be a good way to announce the winner of the nameplate necklace competition despite being a terrible actress, having no idea how to edit video, and never having made one before. Once I got started though I was determined to finish.
So here it is, atmospheric feedback and all. Please go easy on me.
I thought Sarah-Rose was very right when she said that font 5 would look adorable as a sweary word so I got it cut last night. I’m wearing it in the video and below.
Just as I finished recording the courier came with a package for me from Pakistan. It was all wrapped in cloth and I was a bit scared of it till I remembered my glasses were coming from Pakistan!
They are amazing for $26 NZD delivered! The right eye feels slightly blurred My ears are wonky so the right eye doesn’t line up properly all the time and is a teensy bit less clear, but I can still see great in them, they look cool and they even came with a hard case and cloth. Woop, will definitely be buying glasses online again.
Now I’m off to see Harry Potter. :D
O and please don’t name the winner in the comments so it’s a surprise.

Tee hee hee!
Nah, it wasn’t that bad although you should’ve looked at the camera more :)
Is your fringe behaving finally?
Soooo cute I love the glasses!
such a cute idea! loved it!
Cute way to pick a winner! also? I love the necklace you made.
Well after about 5 minutes of blooper real I decided to write myself a little script. I still f’ed up a lot but at least I knew what I was trying to say.
The fringe is a lot better, but still misbehaving. There’s a little bit on the middle which has decided to form a curl, it’s easier to hide now though. :p
I love that I now know what you sound like, you’re soooo cute!!!!
I do love those glasses :)
Congratulations, winner!!! Such a fabulous prize!
And thank you for the offer of free shipping :) Especially since Canada is the most expensive one, LOL. I will be ordering one (or more) just still thinking.
Hope HP was awesome! Sure it was, I can’t wait to see it either! xx
No problem…and sorry about the expensive shipping, silly Etsy doesn’t offer regional shipping so I either have to list every single country or cover the extra cost of shipping myself. I was trying to think of the main ones when I listed them but duh, forgot Canada. Thanks for the reminder.
Harry Potter was amazing. There is a review coming in 6 hours, didn’t want to push this post down too quickly.
Back to eating apple pie and starting on the 6th season of Gilmore Girls now. :]
I’d say the video was a successful experiment! You’re so adorable! Can’t wait for your Potter-post, even though I might have to wait to read it until after I see the film. Also, digging the cuss-plate necklaces. Could be a hot seller!
Thank you! :D
Don’t worry there is only one bit that might be a spoiler and I warn you just before you get to it.
what a cute video – the glasses look awesome!! you would never thing that they were so cheap!
Thanks Charlie. And the thing with glasses is that they’re about as cheap as the ones we buy from the optometrist, they just charge a ridiculous mark up. Sure it needs to be more expensive because of the staff they pay etc, but my last pair cost over $600. There is quite a bit of difference!
Ohh! That video was awesome!! You are such a cutie!! I think more videos yeah!! I love your site :)
I have a very blunt fringe that has a curl on either side & in the middle but I torture it with my trusty GHD into submission!! tehe!
I don’t have a hair straightener. But my hair is v. healthy because of it :D
Sooo feel you on the fringe front. I had this kick ass fringe when I was 5-10 ish, you know one of those ones that starts halfway up on your head. It was dead straight and ruled. Now I have half-assed curly hair with misbehaving cow-licks, it’s that child that did it to me I swear! Yay for you not owning a GHD, I can only aspire to be as comfortable with my hair – I HATE it!
Those glasses are cute (I think I’ve said that before…but they are)! & your accent is adorable!
Squee! Thank you so much, I’m so happy! (& apparently oblivious, haha.)
