My little ladies

Today I am going to introduce you to my Guinea Pigs. I have had Guinea pigs for 6 years. my three ladies are 5 months old. I did have 2 boys but sadly passed away last year, aged 6, called Steve and Barney. my ladies are called Winnieford (Winnie) Poppet and Flo.

The ladies hiding in a tube
Steve always looked like he was up to no good.
Barney in my Nans dolls house
 I do spoil my Guinea pigs I love to have a more but I not got the time or the space for them.
recently I pimped up there hutch. It is a double hutch with a ramp between the two levels. so downstairs is the food, fun and play with wood shaving and straw on the ground. plenty of hay in the hay rack, a red tube and wooded play bridge. they love to run and popcorn about down stairs.


Poppet, downstairs hidihole
upstairs is the bedroom area the boudoir for my ladies. It has fleece and towels on the ground and a home made metal shelve over the stairs. three places for the ladies to sleep so they can either share or sleep separate so they don't need to argue over a bed.


Flo, upstairs shelf bedding area
Winnie hard to take a picture of, she runs away
the post came today I received a large parcel I purchase which was two medium guinea pig piggy digs bed from Piggypigpigs. I have always want some of these so I finally gave in and got some.


Piggy Dig
Piggypigpig is a homemade small animal bed company made by a girl named Laura. I have been watching her guinea pigs on her Youtube site for years.  she has inspired me to pimp out my hutch and I would love to keep my ladies indoors so they have their own room but I not got the space at the moment.

I will post more images of my ladies in their new beds as you can see they are not sure about them right now so I will keep you posted
Flo would rather eat ten look at new bed.

Well its Easter Sunday

Sadly today no Easter eggs for me, I always say no thank you, as I rather have a normal chocolate bar (galaxy is the best)  and not pay for all the packaging and less chocolate. but as it is a horrible rainy day I would love to eat one now. but the shops are closed.

I am very pleased this weekend as my boyfriend Stu is finally moved in, after nearly two years together it has happened! so I share my studio with his red wardrobe, ( Stu man cave). As I am studying Art Psychotherapy I read a lot of books and make art that are response to the way that I feel.


Silly Stu in the picture
My desk, ready for so art making.
Jenny Saville LOVE


Must do some more reading.
 
Xbox most important!!, in my slippers! 



We met in an unusual way on a television show called The Year of Making Love on BBCThree. we were apparently put together through an scientific experiment. and I think it must of worked as we are still going strong. (apart from Stu not buying me an Easter Egg hehe)
 
 



 if you have any questions about Art psychotherapy please do no hesitate to ask.

HAPPY EASTER!!

Easter Break Fun



 What's a Rainbow cake between friends?

My Easter break off work and university. Yay! I have been spending time with my very dearest best friend Nicola ( www.insidethecabinetofwonder.blogspot.com) and her boyfriend.
 
It was so nice to wonder around Brighton, looking in new shops, eating cake and playing games on the pier.

 As I have not made a blog in a while this is my new start, as I am a trainee art therapist I hope my works and reflections will help the progress of this blog.
 
hope you see you soon
