Our Favourite Etsy Buys 2022
Here it is – my personal round up of my Top Etsy Buys For Christmas.

The items they were hunting for were so SO perfect, I needed to share them: Twitter, can I borrow you in case you have come across the following on your travels? – a warm, soft blanket in jolly...
Speakers for a teens bedroom: Edifier R1280T |Christmas Gift ideas 2020
If you’re looking for Speakers for a teens bedroom, we have you covered. These days, our teens are used to sound on the go; on their phones mostly, and maybe when they are at home on their computer too. But when do they get to listen to music the way it was supposed to be listened to, through a quality sound system? Not often I reckon. And yet – they’re a sophisticated crowd; they LOVE a quality listening sound, are...
Genuinely ace earbuds under £20. | Christmas Gift Guide

Once I dragged myself away from the bulging shopping...
My Personal 2022 Top Gins
I know, it’s a bit self-indulgent to chat about my personal 2022 Top Gins. Everyone’s all about the gin at the moment – But frankly, I don’t care! The drink I’ve loved for years is suddenly trendy, and that means there’s a whole raft of artisan makers and new flavours for me to try. Bring it on! There have never been so many fabulous gins to choose from – big brand names down to the smaller...
Olaf Fleece Throw from The Disney Store
Oh, we ALL need a squishy Olaf Fleece Throw. Okay okay, we all know the films and we all know the songs, and we especially know all the songs in the house of Littlestuff with Bear (now 13) as our almost daily reminder of how they go! And never mind the fact this is marketed for young children – this Olaf fleece throw is perfect for any teen’s room: they all grew up with Olaf, and not one will be able to resist his squishy...
