Winter in June...


I know its June, but I'm getting ready for Autumn...it doesn't feel too inappropriate, given the amount of rain we've had this week!

Knitted paws and Cowls for the kids have been the plan for a while now, and here is a sneak peek...



In the shop soon...

I need a collar, a collar is what I need...





I know. Very poor title! I think I'm getting a bit to old to try to be funny...my sense of humor is turning into bad dad jokes.....oh...dear!

So. I am LOVING not being at work this week. We are accomplishing lots, the boy is, (dare I say) potty trained pretty much - little hero.

I made homemade blueberry pancakes for breakfast, on a Tuesday (I know!) - normally a treat reserved solely for lazy weekend mornings!

I've added lots of summery items to the shop including these cute little detachable peter pan collars. I even have one in mint green, my colour of the moment!

Holidays are THE best!

Afternoon Walk - Vintage Steps, Flowers and Jubilee Finds

The boy and I headed for a little wander to the local shop to pick up some bits that we needed to cook dinner. We found lots of lovely things...

The boy loves daisies. He LOVED the fact that there were lots on our little outing. Such a cutie, he picked one just for me!

I love this house. Its in a street that our very first flat was on (about 11 years ago now...), such a pretty street and wonderful sense of neighborhood community - every house was decorated like this and they were having a little Jubilee street party...
..which, was amazing because they were also having a little yard sale to raise money for charity...I found these brilliant vintage foldaway steps - just £4 - such a bargain and I also got a little Lilac tree too! Perfect afternoon finds!

Summery Jersey Headbands

Finally, the first of my summer jersey headbands are in the shop.







They are so easy to wear, perfect for keeping unruly hair out of your face or just accessorising an outfit ! Simply tie the headband in a knot, wear the cute little knotted bow that results to the centre, jauntily to the side for a bit of interest or at the nape of your neck! 


Let me know what you think!

Super Saturday!

Yippee its Saturday and I am on holiday! a massive 10 days off work hip hip hoorray! Owing to the fact that I am not at work it has been so lovely to spend time with my babes....therefore, this post will be mostly children related!

Saturday has been awesome! Here are my super three for today....



1. We are potty training the boy. Today was the first full day, I was expecting horror of horrors...he was utterly amazing! Only one teeny accident - phew! My favorite part...yesterday he chose a potty. Its BRIGHT pink. He loves it, I love it and every time he uses it Edie dances! Happy days indeed! Tomorrow may not be so fun...we have to leave the house!!

2. Edie is officially THE messiest 18 month old ever. I am not sure why, but she has decided that every meal must end with the mostly full bowl or plate or yogurt pot (etc...) on her head. She was in the shower at 7.45am this morning following breakfast-gate...

3. We had mini Baked Alaskas...what more could you want on a weekend?

Tomorrow we're of to our dear friend's for a super Sunday Jubilee Party - I can't wait!

Happy Saturday :)
