cuttlefishlove: Letting my freak flag fly with these monster knickers I whipped up (bodged!) last night! #imadeitmyself #handmade #knickers #pants #memade
cuttlefishlove: My little merbaby trying out my finished #mermaid tail! #mermaidsofinstagram
cuttlefishlove: Progress on the tail! #mermaid #mermaids #mermaidlife
cuttlefishlove: This afternoon- tail making! Spurred on by having some fellow mers to swim with now! #tailmaking #mahina #merfin #mermaid #mermaidlife #nermaidtail
cuttlefishlove: I spent the morning bleaching my roots despite (devil-may-care!) having no hair dye to touch it up with - I quite like the 'lighter roots, darker ends' and it's only slightly yellowy-orange at the roots in real life! #bleach #bleaching #dyeing
cuttlefishlove: #Brighton #mermaids mermaiding it up at The Metropole at our first ever meet up! #mer #mermaidlife #mermaidsarereal #mermaid
cuttlefishlove: My teenage self was a weird mixture of badass and angsty...now in the process of trying to reclaim the badassery minus the angst! #radicalselflovejanuary #myteenageself
cuttlefishlove: I got the present EVER from my lovely sister @Lauraluard yesterday! #sharpies #colorcolorlovers #rainbow #abmlifeiscolourful
cuttlefishlove: I did a #selfportrait - it's been bugging what is not quite right about it and just noticed as I uploaded it that the bridge of my nose/space between my eyes is too big and that's why it looks slightly uncanny valley! #watercolor #colorful #creative #port
cuttlefishlove: I am loving doing this Imaginary Friends series! This is 'Leah' who also according to Squidlet likes 'crawling and rolling around'. Possibly more related to what she was enjoying doing when I asked the question! #watercolor #watercolour #illustration #por
cuttlefishlove: More from Etta's Imaginary Friends series! This is Pippi, who has red and blue hair which is short and curly "like her friend January". She has pink skin, black eyes and wears yellow and pink clothes. Thinking I might ask Squidlet more about what her frie
cuttlefishlove: Today Squidlet told me she was playing with 'January' and I asked her lots of questions about what January looked like - she has grey skin; short grey curly hair, purple eyes and wears purple clothes, and a shirt with a collar #wAtercolour #portrait #pain
cuttlefishlove: ERMAGAD!! Look at the #mermaid gorgeousness that has arrived from @reneenault -she is so talented! Has anyone got any tips for displaying these postcards en masse? There are 24 and I want to put them all up! #reneenault #mermaidart
cuttlefishlove: #Sparkles!!
cuttlefishlove: Going all out with the #radicalselflovejanuary #adornyourself tag because too much is never enough and because and my first fashion idols as a kickass teen were drag queens!
cuttlefishlove: My #favouriteflower for #radicalselflovejanuary is (of course) a #peony, though it is a close tie with cherry blossoms!
cuttlefishlove: Bit of a #radicalselflovejanuary up here as I really stalled with the #iwanttogoto prompt! I would really like to go to Weeki Wachi and see the mermaid show there (my friend went and brought me back this wall sign as a souvenir!) as part of an American r
cuttlefishlove: I know Xmas is long gone but still so happy about this pencil sharpener that I got in my stocking! Thanks @tobyilikecats for spotting them in Tiger for me! #fish #goldfish
cuttlefishlove: Loving the #gratitude prompt for #radicalselflovejanuary today - I don't think I often stop to look at the great people/things I have around me. Today I'm feeling grateful for (clockwise from top left): Freediving, because it's a total break from thinking
cuttlefishlove: Got a bit behind with #radicalselflovejanuary - Here is #myidol Amanda Palmer, wearing a hair flower I made. I love her badass-ness, her fearlessness and vulnerability. #amandapalmer #afp #amandafuckingpalmer
cuttlefishlove: I made a set of these stunning peacock coloured hair flowers for Cat's #wedding last year. This is one of my most favourite colour schemes I've worked with. If you are getting married, I could make something like this for your #bridesmaids, or if you have
cuttlefishlove: Feeling a bit conflicted about drawing this #tarotcard for #radicalselflovejanuary - I interpret the King of Cups reversed to mean that in the coming year I need to take greater responsibility for my emotional wellbeing by sharing my feelings openly and h
cuttlefishlove: This year I've decided to post more #selfies partly because I connect much more to people that I follow who post pictures of themselves and partly as an act of #radicalselflove - saying to myself that my wonky unique face is beautiful in its own way, even
cuttlefishlove: I really like you, can we dance in the rain together?
cuttlefishlove: Feeling so hanging this morning. I think this pic captures my state of mind. It's def a 3 sugars in your tea type of day. Worth it for the night of raucous musical genius that preceded it though (also known as me, Rob and his sister drunkenly singing/guit
cuttlefishlove: I got a sewing machine for Xmas and I've just sewed myself some knickers! This is the first real thing I've ever machine sewn! The scissors are hiding my rookie mistake of drawing my pattern in pen (and drawing it wrongly, and not having much fabric to wo
cuttlefishlove: I usually close my @etsy shop over Christmas but this year I decided to leave it open - this little beauty is being posted out today as a result! #kanzashi #flowercrown #shophandmade
cuttlefishlove: Who remembers this classic toysperiment?
cuttlefishlove: Merry Christmas!! Squidlet is ridiculously excited about her windmill dolls house (made by rob) and Ferris wheel (made by Grangrad, based in my cardboard one!) #christmas #merrychristmas
cuttlefishlove: Oh my gosh! An extremely exciting package has arrived from @theforestmermaid :D :D :D
