Bedding for Teenagers – Bright Stars Organic Cotton
Finding bedding for teenagers can be really tricky, I find. They’re WELL past the stage of wanting their favourite comic book hero or tv character sleeping next to them each night, and yet they’re usually not ready (especially the boys) for the adult offerings of floral patterns or plain old block colours that seem to be the only alternative. So I let out a Whoop Of Happy when I was looking at the Fine Cotton...
OXO Tot Seedling high chair review
OXO Tot Seedling high chair review reviewed for us by Molly Forbes, ably assisted by the delicious Baby Girl High chairs. You have no idea how many different types there are until you’re standing in the middle of the baby department in a shop looking at high chair upon high chair staring back at you. From wooden to plastic to metal, cushioned to non-cushioned, with trays and without trays, adjustable height to fixed height…. it’s all...
BEKO DW663 Review – Best Family Full-size Integrated Dishwasher
We’ve been asked to run a BEKO DW663 Review – we’re a large family, and our dishwasher has to work hard to keep up. Here’s what we honestly thought of it… We know from bitter personal experience that not all dishwashers are created equal.

Spotted! Achingly pretty vintage melamine picnic plates!
I LOVE eating outside in the warmer weather, but in the past melamine picnic plates have been less-than-inspiring. But I just spotted this over on John Lewis. Isn’t it SO pretty? That vintage green, that soft floral meadow impression of a design… and it’s melamine, so utterly perfect for summer eating in the garden, or whisking out for impromptu picnics. This is actually the contrasting side plate in the Croft...
Spotted! Quirky Hare doormat (and there’s cats too!)
A Hare Doormat! Oh me oh my, it’s a thing of beauty. It’s a doormat – with HARES on! Such pretty hares, too… (Hares are the new Owls… you knew that, right?) The quirky design is in all the shades of spring – I just love it. And so darn practical too! Have you seen Turtle Mats yet? If not, and in your house you have children, dogs, a gardener or anyone whoever steps outside… you NEED one....
Spotted! LEGO wall sticker decal – LOVE it!
This is SO fabulous – a huge LEGO wall sticker vinyl decal, that makes it look like the room walls are actually LEGO behind the paint. Isn’t it genius? Spotted over on Etsy, the LEGO wall decal is available for just under £18 with free shipping; you can see it in the Etsy shop of Nursery Room Wall Art – who happen to have a fantastic range of really different wall art. I adore these sea horses...
