"Hi Chantelle,
I didn't make the charm, its a vintage cab that I bought a little while back. It's 1950/60's and made from plastic. It's really sturdy (this surprised me a little) so I thought it would make a fab big and bright…"

Welcome, to Lou Lou's Luxuries! Grab yourself a cuppa and settle down!
About me!
Hi everyone!
I'm Monkey Lou Lou! I'm 21 and hale from the big smoke of London.
Ever since I was a wee kiddie winkle I've been making things, from friendship bracelets, to cross stitches, to papyrus paper (oh that was a fun day!) I've always loved creating something with my own two hands.
I must admit, I had a few years break from crafting (school work doesn't half get in the way!) and lost my love for it...well the dark times are over and I'm back in the drivi...comfy crafting seat! My latest venture is in jewellery making. My love for vintage fashion and style (hopefully) shine through my in jewellery designs. I try my hardest to use vintage charms in my pieces and if I can't get them, I'll pop in a touch of vintage inspiration instead!
So that's me! Lou Lou, from Lou Lou's Luxuries, who makes handmade jewellery with a vintage touch! You can follow my musings on Twitter, have gander at my life on my Blog. Or if you really fancy it...you can have a little browse of my lovelies over in Folksy.
Well....toodle pip old chaps, hope to see you again soon!

Chantelle Cheshire commented on Lou Lou's Luxuries's blog post Branching Out!"Hi, not been on here much lately but have to say I really like what you've done. What's it made from? Bet it too forever to make. I know you said it's big but to me thats a very fiddly small. You must have the patience of a saint?…"
Lou Lou's Luxuries posted a blog postBranching Out!
I'm feeling rather proud of myself lately!Firstly, I've developed what I feel to be pretty good routine in my life. Early mornings before work I catch up with photography and promo work, 9-5 is the day job then when I get home I have boyfriend and me time plus crafting time (usually when the football is on!) Doesn't leave too much pampering time but that can be taken care of on a Sunday afternoon! Pretty good considering that when Is tarted my job I nearly had a panic attack trying to work out…See More

It's Good Friday and My First Folksy Friday!
I'm not particularly religious, so although I know what today is I won't be attending Church, or doing anything special...except, of course, I will be having fish for dinner.
Today is special for me in one way though...I've done my first ever Folksy Friday! I've decided that my theme would be City Girl on the Go Go!! Thanks to my new job, I'm a 9-5 City traveller, which means there are things that I cannot (should not) leave home without to get me through the horrendous travelling… Continue

Helloooooo out there!
So this is my first UK Handmade blogpost and I feel rather nervous about it!
I guess I should introduce myself?
I'm Monkey Lou Lou! aka Lou Lou and I live in London. I'm a fashion, make up and Twilight addict with a passion for creating things.
