Miss Allsopp I salute you
You know you are a ‘tad’ obsessed, when you’re dreaming about meeting Kirstie Allsopp in your sleep.
Be it the very opening title sequence that screams out to any budding crafter or the flamboyant wardrobe of Miss Allsopp herself. That woman has a style all of her own. Mostly consisting of vintage I imagine. I am particularly admiring the giant aquamarine (engagement) ring the most...
My favourite craft of the series has to be the cross-stitch cushions master class with Emily Peacock. The embroidery equally thrilled me, as it’s always been a craft close to my heart.
I have religiously admired week after week, and become enthralled in all the tips and tricks along the way. Equally I was smitten with Kirstie and Phil’s Perfect Christmas, it was festive and fun and all the crafty ideas and beautiful aesthetics easily charmed me.
Thank-you Kirstie for a wonderful series and more so a wonderful way of life♥
Love her too, even if some of the things are ridiculously expensive to make or elaborate! xx
ReplyDeleteooh i love kirstie, i could watch her programmes all day, definately a girl after my own heart <3
ReplyDeleteGreat post Alice :)
Love her too, i always want to steal her clothes x
ReplyDeletei havent watched any of the series yet! i dont know how, my friends keep screaming at me to watch it and saying id love it. may have to catch up with it all during the christmas break, with copious mugs of tea, ah perfect! xxx
ReplyDeleteOh, I adore Kirstie! And the cross stitch cushions episode was my favourite too. x
ReplyDeleteI'v been without tv since I got back from NZ, but I LOVED the first series so much. I think I might make a mug of choccie and try streaming it on 4OD!
ReplyDeleteI love her! I wish I could make more.
ReplyDeleteI've missed all of this series. Hope it recorded though as it looks perfect to watch with a giant pot of tea.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the lovely blog comment. I love Kirstie's ring too. The size of it! I'd quite like to raid her wardrobe aswell. and the best bit is she looks like she enjoys a good meal rather than sticking to carrot sticks and seeds x
ReplyDeleteAlthough I initially loved this series and everything in it, I have become increasingly irritated by Miss Allsops insatiable enjoyment of every single craft she undertakes. Surely every single one of them cannot be the absolute best thing she has ever done ever!?
ReplyDeleteThe cross stitch cushions are beautiful. I love crafts like that. It was such a nice programme.
ReplyDeleteAaah I hate to say it but KA inexplicably annoys me! I do however love her Location Location Location counterpart, and if her tastes are as beautiful as those pillows (Christmas list much?!) perhaps I could grow to like her :) jazzy ♥
ReplyDeleteaah i havent seen this but it looks amaazing! sure its my cup of perfectly brewed earl grey hehe
ReplyDeletethanks for being so lovely about my film! its great to hear such positive feedback after all the hard aork! aah yes, childhood, isnt it marvellous - take me back now!
p.s really ant one of those cushions but i have to finish a cross stitch of a barge i started ages ago first! xxx
I really loved this show. I got super excited when I was browsing 4od.com and seen that she had a christmas themed programe very similar to this as well as another craft series. So good! :) xx
