Over Christmas break and into the New Year we’ve been busy decluttering and organising the spare bedroom. It’s a slow process but we’re hoping to have it ready by the end of the month. 😊 I’m sure I’ll write a before and after post once it’s all finished. During any decluttering session at home, I’m always mindful about any household waste that may come from it. I make sure to…

Reflecting on 2018
I’d like to take the time to wish everyone a Happy New Year and hope you have a lovely start to 2019… I’m currently getting over the flu that I caught after Boxing Day. 🙁 But, before the clock strikes midnight, I wanted to reflect on the year I’ve had, both the good and the bad.

Dinner was followed by a music themed board game, that I ended up winning(!) and The Jungle Book on TV. It was a good…

Our Christmas Traditions
When we were little my sister and I used to stay at home with our Gran on Christmas Eve, while my parents went out for the day.

Now that we’re older we get invited to…

Gift ideas for men (written by men)
Is it just me or are men sometimes the hardest to buy for? When asked what they want for Christmas, birthdays or fathers day the answer is usually “nothing”, “you don’t have to get me anything” or “I need more socks”. 😅 With that in mind, I’ve asked a few of the men in my life to help with this post (thanks guys!). There is something for everyone on this…

Gift ideas for self care
Christmas is a busy period for most and with it comes Christmas parties, present shopping and socialising which can make finding time to relax and unwind difficult. A self care product can be a thoughtful gift to give this time of year (or any time actually), or to treat yourself with. With that in mind, here are my favourite gift ideas for self care featuring independent sellers on Etsy. Bath…
