GypsyBird Makeup
As a typical girlie-girl I LOVE wearing make-up & being made to feel pretty. I don’t wear make-up every day (I often just work from home), but when I go out I like to put in some extra effort. And looking at social media influencers who are super talented & inspiring makes me want to […]
Snuggle Bugs
Have you seen the story/image on Facebook that has been doing the rounds about having a toy made from Grandpa’s shirt so that the grandchildren can remember him? When I saw this it really touched me, as I know I would have loved one of these from both my dad & my grandpa. When I […]
Bella Boneca
When you meet someone, the first thing you notice is their face & their skin. After suffering from teenage acne, & also having very pale skin that scars easily I have always put some research into what I am using on my skin. Thanks to FB & Instagram’s algorithms they now suggest different skincare products […]
Addi is the BOMB!
Princess Addison is such a special little girl. When I first met her, I was completely enamored by her friendliness, zest for life & her complete love for animals. We bonded whilst watching The Trolls & she chatted away to me about all sorts, & getting to see life through a child’s eyes truly reminded […]
IT’S OKAY to not always be okay
Have you ever met someone & just clicked with them from the word go? They just get you, your craziness, & love you through/despite your ups & downs. To me, this person is Charlie – from Charlie Foxtrot Illustrations & Charlie and Beastie. She has the most AMAZING talent, & she found space in her heart […]
Lulupie
Scrolling through Facebook one day I cam across a page called Lulupie. They do paperless patterns which means that they print the actual pattern on the fabric so all you have to do is cut out the design & sew it together. Plus they can even make your own fabric with a design of your […]
My Little Loves
Kirsty is a truly beautiful soul who embraces life & everything it throws at her, whilst truly wanting to make the world a better place. She is a friend; wife; mum yoga instructor; & has recently added business owner to her CV! I went to school with Kirsty & did dancing with her during this […]
Pretty Bright Girls
When Libby started helping us in our home some time back, I asked her what she would like to wear. Did she want to wear civvies, or would she rather have a uniform? She said a uniform would suit her better as this made it feel like she was going to work & she didn’t […]
Be Kind To Every Kind
Did you know that this month is #PlasticFreeJuly? When I found out about this, I vowed that I was going to do my little bit to be more eco-friendly. I have chosen to say “NO!” to plastic bags at all the shops, & carry my own fabric bags with me. If I forget them at […]
Nut Butter Mafia
Our family has always had a slight obsession with nut butters – on apples or bananas; in a smoothie; on toast with sugar/syrup/bacon; mixed together with ice cream & milo; or even just out the jar as a little pick me up (yes, by the spoonful!). In fact there are probably at least 10 other […]
