A few weeks ago, I attended Pandora’s Wishing Tree event at Shop Eat Do in King’s Cross. I walked in to a crowd of bloggers enjoying their champagne, socialising and snapping away. I met some lovely bloggers during the event (darn I saw Mikaela and was about to say hi to her but she had to leave. Next time!) we had the opportunity to learn how to make origami flowers as well as making heart-shaped lavender-filled pouches…mmmmm. The blooming Pandora wishing tree was the central attention in the room and we learnt how to make origami flowers by the expert himself in the room. I used to be good at origami, but the novelty of paper folding was so long ago I don’t think I can even fold a paper plane let a lone a pretty flower to hang on the wishing tree.
I received a beautiful gift from Pandora, a sweet, silver Love bracelet (thank you Pandora!!) and no surprise, I wore it straight away. I have only just got back from my holiday so I was surprised to see an unexpected package waiting for me. You know me, love to play with product photography so I hope I really showed off the bracelet here just how pretty it is
I am a sucker for cupcakes and sweets and I must say, I was hovering around the cupcakes for quite a while. I think they were from Hummingbird, I was so hungry and had no dinner that evening…I scoffed a cupcake or two oops. Sorry for the grainy pictures though, it was a dark room as you can see but the chocolate cupcake on the 3 tier cake holder was so delicious!
I had a pleasure to be taught how to make a lavender heart pouch which surprisingly took me less than an hour to make. Was a fiddly job, I like to think I was very good at textiles ( I did get an A for textiles GCSE’s ) but I kept making mistakes! Nevertheless, I made it in the end after a few pricks on my finger and wallah, my cute heart shaped lavender pouch was born and hanged it on the Pandora wishing tree in the middle of the room.
I pretty much stayed to the very end of the event, picked up my goody bag and snap a few more photo’s. What a fun evening I had and be a part of the Pandora Wishing Tree event, thank you for having me! Check out #PandoraWishingTree for more details of the event and pics of the night as well as their Pandora Wishing Tree site where you can read everyone’s wish hanged on the tree and you may be able to find mine (it is very sweet! awww.)
