Need a garden bench? We’re in love with this one.
I know, it’s not a glamorous or exciting thing. But I’ll tell you now, every single one of us properly loves this bench. Our old garden bench was made of a softwood, and the last valiant man standing from a table & bench set we purchased years ago; despite loving care, they slowly rotted and disintegrated until sitting on that last bench was a precarious and risky challenge. We swore that next time we’d invest in...

Summer’s coming – and so is Father’s Day.In this month’s issue I’ve written a rather personal letter to my husband. He didn’t know – but he read it in the magazine, and nudged me gently in the shoulder by way of thanks, so that’s nice.

Spotted! Origami Green Dinosaur Lamp!
We’re always on the hunt for quirky kids bedroom lighting – and I’ve rather fallen for this fabulous dinosaur lamp! Is it a brachiosaur? Or is it a diplodocus? Tricky to tell. Either way it’s peppermint green, and utterly charming. I’d rather like him plodding gently around my room at night. He stands 22cm tall, and is made not from paper at all, but from a tough polyresin which is much sturdier...
Fabulous Elephant Hobo Bag – perfect casual summer bag and UNDER £7!
Every summer I’m on the hunt for the perfect casual summer bag – the one I can grab for a day at the beach, the park or a daytime explore around a city. Yes it needs to hold my essentials like phone, wallet keys etc, but it needs to be big enough to hold the summer necessities – water, sunglasses, sun cream, notebook, rolled up sun hat.
