I have been quite on my site just recently because as well as college, work and being mum we have also been decorating. We are in the process of having a new log burner put into the lounge and with that the lounge is going to need decorating. I have been getting far to carried away on Pinterest and have been picking up some decorating ideas that I thought I would share with you and it’s useful for me to have as a reference.#1. Add Natural Touch I just want to keep things simple and as natural ...
This is me
This is me - Have you ever tried to write about yourself? It’s actually really difficult. I have been aware that the basic idea of blogging is to keep a diary so how I can write daily without having something about me on my website. Where to begin? I won’t bore with stories of my early life as it’s really pretty insignificant to where I am now. Let’s start from age 16. I left school with no GCSEs, I wasn’t naughty at school, I wasn’t particularly good at sports, I was just very average which ...
Camp Bestival – A review from Jessica
We found out we were going to Camp bestival only 2 weeks before it started. Eeek, I thought I must write lists, I must plan this is huge!Due to the short notice my husband was unable to come due to his work schedule so I asked my friend Christina to come along with me and the kids. We left at 6.30am on the Thursday morning and it took 6 hours to get to Lulworth. Getting on site was pretty painless and once parked up we loaded up the trollies. I suggested we set up camp near where the boutique ...
Review – I want to ride my Micro trike
Matilda is a very strong willed, independent 3 year old. On a daily basis she tell me “I’m a big girl mummy” and is always insistent she can do anything and everything. This is not a bad thing. I like the fact she has her own mind but sometimes when shopping and in busy places I could do with her being close to me. Not striding off at her own pace to do her own thing. This is where the micro trike has been invaluable. Not really keen on going in a buggy anymore but she is very unsure about ...
Finding the time – giveaway and review of Jord watch
I was recently contacted by Jord watches and asked to review and run a giveaway contest. I will often accept items for family, friends and the children but I’ve never actually accepted something for myself before so I thought why not? Treat myself for a change to a new woman’s watch and it’s a lovely competition to be able to share. I can’t actually remember the last time I bought something for myself. We went out to a evening wedding the other night and it was lovely to be able to take time ...
Canvas Champ review and Giveaway
We spend so much time with cameras to hand now. It’s so easy to take a picture and store them away. My parents have shelves and shelves of photo albums but I maybe have one knocking about. When I was recently contacted by a brand called canvas champ and asked if I would be interested in receiving a free 12x8 personalised canvas I thought it was a great opportunity to get a picture actually printed for a change. The first thing I thought about was which picture I should use. Like most people I ...
