Lottie from Mia Tui – the bag I can’t do without

by

I love the Mia Tui bags, they are stylish and so clever. Stylish  – because the designs are lovely. Clever  – because you can get everything you possibly need in it and there are several to choose from to suit your needs. I had reviewed the Grace bag last year and I use it everywhere I go, except of course on the school run because I don’t need such a large bag and well, I was sent the Lottie bag to review which is perfect for the school run. I used to be the mum with the large bulging pockets …

Light Up Your Christmas with Yankee Candles

by

I have a friend who is Yankee Candle mad and I used to wonder what she was so crazy about until I tried one out for myself. I love scented candles -they give the room such a wonderful ambience. I have to admit that I also have favourites and I am very partial to Yankee Candles. They do the most amazing aromas and products. When I recently attended the Ideal Christmas Home Show, I happened upon the Yankee Candle stall and I knew I had to stop by. The stand smelt glorious and I was quite taken with the Illuma-lids. …

Poundland Christmas – gift giving made easy!

by

As part of the Poundland Christmas blogger challenge, I was given £20 to purchase gifts/toys/decorations. I was quite excited at the prospect as I do visit Poundland for deals and especially at Christmas, I find I get good deals especially when it concerns chocolate and other goodies. When I went into Poundland, I was a little overwhelmed seeing the huge crowd and the huge selection. I pretty much knew what I wanted to get but I was still going to browse to get the prefect gifts. I needed some stocking fillers and I needed a few other knick-knacks to use …

Treasure Box – for those special Christmas treasures…

by

It’s the most wonderful time of the year…. Christmas is special…made even more special with gifts, Christmas trees and decorations and Advent calendars. One of the sweetest traditions is the Advent Calendar and it is not just for children. I think it is a lovely gesture to buy advent calendars so that loved ones can find little treats in the countdown to Christmas. I usually buy the children advent calendars that come filled with chocolates. This year I am going to do things differently – I am going to buy advent calendars and fill them with my own little treats …

Its back to school and with that comes school runs, new lunch bags, bottles and uniforms.

by

I don’t know about you – but ever so often when I see an advertisement for a toy that looks really nice, I wish my children had one. Now obviously, I also make a mental note to myself to put it down on the birthday list or the Christmas list but sometimes…just sometimes, I don’t really want to wait that long to get it for them (or for myself as the case may be) Well, this is one of them. When I saw the ad for the Flutterbye Fairy on telly, I wanted it for my girls and made a …
