Every month I challenge myself to make the Mollie Makes magazine cover gift. I’ve subscribed since it first came out and have a drawer full of unopened kits – but no more! I’ve been making more time for crafting and I love to make the kits and hopefully try something new with each of them….
I haven’t treated myself to a subscription box for a while but when I heard about the new Kawaii Japan Surprise Box from Asking For Trouble I knew I wanted to get my hands on one. I love Marceline’s products, she has a cute gingerbread range!, and have made a few small purchases before, such as…
We’ve been taking inspiration from those cute little Trolls recently. We’ve seen the trailer for the new Trolls film a few times and enjoyed playing with the new Poppy Style Station which we recently reviewed.

I’m always keen to try new creative things. I love learning and making things with my hands. Nothing beats leaving my family bubble for a few hours, getting out and meeting new people and hopefully picking up a new hobby. Aside from crafting with my children I love to indulge my hobby of sewing but…
Avebury is a Neolithic henge monument containing three stone circles, around the pretty village of Avebury in Wiltshire. It also happens to be between my Mum’s house and ours so we often stop off on the way home. Exploring Avebury Stone Circle with children is a great day out as there is so much to…
