Jislaaik!
jislaaik: [yis-like] An expression of outrage or surprise: “Jislaaik, I just saw Elvis!” (Thanks Brand South Africa for the explanation!) As you all know, I am all about supporting local! I would rather spend a little bit extra & support a small business that handmakes goodies than buying something that everyone else has. Plus by […]
Bits & Blobs
Have you ever watched a clip/video & been completely mesmerized, so you carry on watching what they have available & before you know it a couple of hours have passed? This is what happened when I came across Bits & Blobs on Instagram & Facebook. She makes absolutely gorgeous slimes & squishy things, & her […]
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 […]
Tattoos by Tory
As part of Women’s Month, I knew I wanted to do a focus on women who have achieved a lot in an industry that is predominantly run by men. Instagram has been a great tool to search & look for inspiration of ideas of women who are pushing boundaries, achieving what was previously unachievable, & […]
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 […]
