I originally shot a ‘cock wreath’ (read: a cock ring adorned with holly) for this week’s Toy with me Tuesday but got a little distracted by shiny things after the fact. What can I say? I’m such a sucker for a bit of sparkle. In fairness, I had to take some pictures of this little Lady Lustfinger mini vibe before sending it off to its reviewer and it seemed crazy not to stick it next to all the pretty baubles from our Christmas tree before it went in the post.

Toy with me Tuesday: That’s not a candy cane …
Not that keen on sugar? Looking for a different sort of cane to decorate your Christmas tree? May I suggest this festive alternative. (Although removing the holly before use would probably be wise.)
Thomas recently bought this rattan cane for Lizzie (they’re currently putting it through its paces) and I borrowed it from them to take this shot. Continue reading
Toy with me Tuesday: Shibari Christmas turkey
‘Er, Jane? What exactly are you doing to that turkey with my Shibari rope?’
‘Toy with me Tuesday.’
‘I’m not even going to ask.’
‘Probably best not to.’
‘Just make sure you clean it thoroughly afterwards.’
‘Salmonella’s a hard limit, yes?’
‘Don’t be cheeky.’
Who said poultry bondage can’t be sexy? Continue reading
Toy with me Tuesday: Plume
This feather is awesome. Such a simple toy, but I get so much enjoyment out of it, particularly when my OH uses it during sensation play. Alternated with a crop or other impact instrument? Bliss. I can only thank the bird that gave it up for my pleasure! Continue reading
Toy with me Tuesday: Deep Freeze
You might recall that I recently had a failed ‘fake frost’ Toy with me Tuesday experiment. Well, last weekend it was finally cold enough for Lizzie and I to take the shot I wanted with the Spartacus Smooth G-Spot Glass Dildo she and Thomas reviewed a few weeks ago. Continue reading
Toy with me Tuesday: which beads should I wear, honey?
What to wear, what to wear … Sometimes it’s so difficult to decide exactly how you’re going to accessorise.
I really do love the colour and shape of these reverse anal beads – and according to Lizzie, they feel rather nice, too! Continue reading

Toy with me Tuesday: Heart of Darkness
‘Evening by evening
Among the brookside rushes,
Laura bowed her head to hear,
Lizzie veiled her blushes:
Crouching close together
In the cooling weather,
With clasping arms and cautioning lips,
With tingling cheeks and finger tips.
“Lie close,” Laura said,
Pricking up her golden head:
“We must not look at goblin men,
We must not buy their fruits:
Who knows upon what soil they fed
Their hungry thirsty roots?”
“Come buy,” call the goblins
Hobbling down the glen.
“Oh,” cried Lizzie, “Laura, Laura,
You should not peep at goblin men.”’
- From Christina Rosetti’s Goblin Market
Toy with me Tuesday: Turn me on
I had a bit of a disaster with my original Toy with me Tuesday shot for today. Turns out, it’s not that easy to create fake frost. Who’d have thought? (I’ll just have to wait ‘til winter is in full swing before trying that one again, I think …)
So, instead of ice crystals, I’ve gone for electronics. This shot is actually inspired by a friend’s comments regarding a shot I did of the LELO Gigi back in September. She thought it looked like a remote for the T.V. or a videogame controller. And I have to agree, when you put the Gigi in a gadget line-up, she doesn’t look out of place! Hey, we all have buttons we like pushed. Continue reading
Toy with me Tuesday: Surprise!
I thought I’d have a bit of fun with this week’s Toy with me Tuesday. (Hopefully LEGO don’t sue me.)
This shot is a bit of an homage to Thomas and Lizzie’s post of yesterday, in which they talked about the accidental purchase of a birthday dildo that ‘resembled John Holmes on steroids’ (Thomas’ words, not mine!). And we’ve all been there; bought a sex toy online, got it out of the box and thought ‘did I really order that?’. Continue reading
