We are so excited about Big Hero 6. As a family we love to watch films and we loved Big Hero 6 on the big screen. Big Hero 6 is the story of Hiro and Baymax, set in the fictional city of Sanfransokyo (a mashup of San Francisco and Tokyo). The film is inspired by…
There’s something about January that makes me want to stay in and hibernate with some sewing. It’s been so cold that I’ve been quite happy to spend my evenings working on my Union flag quilt – a gift for my 3 year old – hopefully before she leaves home. I’ve seen real progress with it…
Last year we bought my daughter a play kitchen. It’s one of her favourite toys and has led to some really fun play times. She prepares her play food, makes us meals, organises tea parties for her dolls and sets up shop too. This was a really great purchase! Today it’s raining (again!) so I…

Is there anything nicer than receiving a handmade Valentine card? We don’t think so and have made an early start on our cards this year. I wanted to make a little something to send the Grandparents and we’ve been playing around with wax crayons and watercolour paint to make some super sweet cards, a fun…
I have a sweet giveaway to share with you today. I’m sure it hasn’t escaped your notice that Valentine’s Day is fast approaching. Will you be giving your loved one a little token or going all out to impress them? This week we’ll be having a test run with our handmade Valentine’s Day cards and…
