Published at Thursday, October 01st 2015, 15:03:39 PM by Shelby G. Events.

Self-confessed ‘crush-addict’ Isabelle O’Carroll had our audience in fits of laughter discussing her theory on crushes. “Some people say that their crushes are so strong it prevents them from eating or even sleeping! But crushes can be such a powerful motivator making you change your life or a strong comforter in times of depression.”Other highlights during our third quarter included Alex Lambert’s gripping topic on creativity, ideas and technology, Inua Ellams’ insightful talk on mental health issues in men and Sabah Choudrey’s moving story on being a transgendered Muslim.

Live tweets and updates being shared on the day included quotes from some of our most inspiring speakers -like Robyn Parker, Helen Wright and Hugh Lewis, Pete Bearder and Charlotte Knowles:We were treated to incredible performances from Lil Trubz, Brandon Bennet and The Voice UK finalist Brixton’s very own Lara Lee “TEDxBrixton to me is about people coming together sharing ideas and it’s about the energy of the area. Brixton has always had a massive energy in terms of creativity and the point of having an event like this is to improve as a community,” explained Lara.

 How to Decorate a Masculine Bachelor Pad

Bedroom. Published at Tuesday, September 25th 2018, 14:37:52 PM by Shelby G.

While women usually redesign rooms from top to bottom, men should redesign rooms from bottom to top. Begin by selecting a rug to use as a focal point. Comfort is important in bachelor pads, so choose something soft that you will enjoy stepping on. You can go with any color you like but keep your lifestyle in mind. Solid colored rugs are ideal for masculine rooms and white rooms make a great statement against the typical stainless steel or black furniture. However, if you have pets or don't like to vacuum, you should probably choose a beautiful rug in a dark color to hide dirt.

you should begin by browsing some magazines for ideas. Avoid the trendy home decorating magazines and go after the magazines you would actually subscribe to. Look at the advertisements and see the rooms used as backdrops for photo shoots. Do any of these designs peak your interest? Get an idea of the things you like and dislike. This will make choosing your decorating elements much easier.

 4 Great Ways to Create Invitations With a Baby Footprint Stamp

Decor. Published at Monday, September 24th 2018, 14:32:48 PM by Shelby G.

You can find a template in a magazine ~ just cut out a baby foot from an advertisement. If you have a toddler you could even trace their foot. Once you have the foot you want to use, simply draw around it on a piece of heavy duty poster board. This will serve as your template. Then choose the paper you want to use for your invitations and cut around your template footprint. You can embellish these invitations with stickers, or even just sparkly pens. Just remember, a little goes a long way.

You can get a baby footprint invitation kit to make the invitations. Everything will be included in the kit, the baby footprint stamp, the envelopes, the paper, everything you need. You just have to do the stamping, and some have a spot for pictures, so you'll add the picture and then fill them out. It's a quick, easy and cute option for those who don't have a lot of time for crafting or just don't have the inclination.

The other, cheaper option is to get a freestanding deck. This is a laddered platform that stands next to the pool and has enough room for one or two people to stand. It also has a ladder the leads into the pool. There is a gate around the platform to prevent anyone from falling and injuring themselves. It also has a lock for when you don't want anyone getting in the pool while you are not there. Freestanding decks are the most inexpensive and easiest to install above ground swimming pool decks available. Anything less would be a simple A-frame ladder that fits across the pool ledge.

If you choose the more extensive deck

We chose the theme because we believe this embodies what Brixton really is. We don’t believe in melting pots, we believe in salad bowls, mosaics and kaleidoscopes – things that allow individual elements to be part of a whole.
