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...
Bic’s wipeboard for children? Under £4? Brilliant, that’s what it is.
We love this little board. We SO do. Pone side is squared graph paper, and the other side is blank. There is a clip at the top which is a rubber and also a clip for the pen. Simple, neat and SO handy. I have a 5yr old girl, and she loves or draw and write. Constantly and endlessly. And I know she’s not alone in her obsession. But keeping up with it in terms of paper is hideousness – a problem which this board neatly...
Felt tips that really do wash out. Bic Kids – have you been converted yet?
As any parent knows (or very quickly learns) there are some things you just don’t cut corners on. And felt tips are one of the high things on my Only-Buy-This-Brand list. I’ve been buying them for 12 years now, and only one brand will cross my threshold, as it’s the ONE brand I can guarantee really will wash out of nice tops, pale skirts and dining room chair seats when it says it will (except for green. Why oh why is the green...
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). But fortunately the lovely Nicole (rather unwillingly, as you can imagine) stepped up for us, and offered us the use of her delicious 34 week bump to drape the Isabella Oliver review over… When I was asked to review the Isabella Oliver Luxe Tie Sweater I immediately went on their website and emailed a picture of it to my...
BEST Fridge Freezer for a Large Family. NO question.
Post-Christmas Holiday, having four children home and extended family to stay and all that Chrsitmas FOOD to store, seriously the biggest challenge any kitchen faces in the year… I just wanted to say that I LOVE the Monster in my kitchen more than ever. I never ever ever want to go back to an ordinary-sized fridge freezer, ever ever again. If anyone is looking for the best fridge for a large family – you really can’t...
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...
