Spotted! Personalised Mugs. Good Ones.
This is a bit more than a Spotted! item. Sometimes we come across a product that we just happen to love – so we talk about them. I’ve used YourDesign a number of times, and they are unfailingly excellent. The above mug is the (rather ridiculous) one I bought for Fathers day a couple of years ago – and it is still in use every single day. Father Christmas bought one for No.1 son this Christmas – he’s far...
Do you ‘Pin’? Find us on Pinterest…
We’ve collated an archive of our top Spotted! items over on Pinterest, which is such a great way to mosey around the eclectic stuff we come across and ‘spot’ for you. Next up is the Books board – all the books we’ve talked about on one quick-to-browse shelf of loveliness. New to Pinterest? Fret not! The lovely Domestic Goddesque has just written a Beginners Guide to Pinterest, which is fantabulous and...
Frozen Jacket Potatoes? *shudder*
Frozen microwaveable jacket potatoes, McCain? Seriously? Well, I promised I would try them out, so I did… but there was no way I was going to like them –a jacket potato for me is food from the gods.

Stunning Isabella Oliver Luxe Tie Maternity Sweater
Contrary to popular opinion, I am not currently pregnant (yes, sadly, that baby belly is all me, me, me).

The one where Keris tries the Skoda Roomster
(And no, don’t you dare click away in boredom at a CAR review – this was written by Keris so you just KNOW it’ll be worth a quick squizz through…) After falling so much in love with the Skoda Yeti, we were all very excited about the prospect of the Skoda Roomster. As wonderful as the Yeti is, we thought it was maybe a bit too big for us and that the Roomster would be more fitting. We looked at it online and...
The Bestest Christmas Gift Guide – The most beautiful notebooks ever. Paperblanks. (*warning – this post contains stationery porn*)
Oh me oh my. Now don’t tell me you’re not swooning at the idea of a pretty notebook. If you do I simply shan’t believe you. And honestly? You’ll go a ve-e-e-ry long way before you find a notebook as lovely as a Paperblank. My own lustful ways are currently hot-flushing over the Pocket Companions series – it might be the rounded edges, the smooth mock-cracked-leather exterior, the totally perfect...
