Spotted! Beautiful Family Tree from Famille Summerbelle

Oh, I love this! I would love it in my kitchen. And I know my children would all love this too, hanging in their bedrooms.

Small enough to go anywhere, simple rules everyone can master easily, endlessly flexible in terms of age range, and big belly laughs guaranteed. So I whooped with glee when I spotted this triple pack over on Little Bundles – three great games in one! Animal Rummy (which I’m guessing is a child’s version of Gin Rummy), Old...

Spotted! Pretty Teapot Photo/card/odds holder

I LOVE the busy bee studio website… and I LOVE this card holder. I would love this tidying up the postcards and photographs I have tucked around the pinboard in my kitchen. Gorgeous. It’s definately worth a visit to the Busy Bee Studio eclectic website.
