Decorating Easter eggs has to be the highlight of Easter for me. There’s just something about an egg that feels like you can turn it in to anything. One of my favourite egg decorating ideas were these minimal Easter egg bunnies but this year I’ve gone for something completely different. I wanted something more organic…
I always display a calendar on my desk and I was adding on the April 2019 one when it dawned on me that one quarter of this year has already passed. How did that happen? It reminded me to share your free printable 2019 calendars so here are the calendars for the next quarter –…
Mother’s Day is around the corner, in the UK at least. Does anybody know why the UK Mother’s Day is different from the rest of the world? I know, I know… I should just google it. Anyway with UK Mother’s Day coming up I wanted to make a little something for all our mums. So…
I’m one of those people that usually has anywhere between 3 and 5 books on the go at any one time. I buy a lot of books and when I get a new one, the excitement of reading it is so much that I need to start it right away – despite not having finished…

While I like to make things look nice, I’m all about the shortcuts at this time of year. What’s the point of stressing yourself out when this should be the time you relax, reflect, feast and enjoy spending time with your friends and family. One of my favourite shortcuts is to dress up any basic…
One of the best bits of Christmas is all the giving. But if I’m honest, I love getting gifts too. It’s fun! I’m usually more excited about the gift wrapping than the gift buying and as usual I’ve decided how I’m wrapping my gifts before I’ve even bought them all. This year I’m going for…
With Christmas coming, the festive cards will be piling up too. And piles of stuff eventually become piles of clutter which none of us need more of, right? We all know mantles and counter tops become full very quickly so this year I decided to re-purpose an old picture frame I had lying around and…
