Trollbeads. Perfect. #EasterGiftGuide
I have had a bit of a thing for Trollbeads for quite a while now. I have always hated traditional charm bracelets – I love their sentiment, and their personality… but ‘charms’? *shudder* Trollbeads retain all that individuality and personal meaning… and manage to be so darn pretty too. Last week a special edition totally caught my eye – and I told them so, sighing jealously at its prettiness. So it...
Best Lip Balm. Ever. Fact.
I can’t tell you how many lip balms I’ve tried over the years. I’m fine in the summer, but the minute the central heating goes on, or (worse) I’m in a car with the heater on… Crack!

The Perfect Cat Mug
A few weeks ago I spotted the Perfect Cat Mug – properly beautiful little mugs on Jin Designs, they had small black cats on, in the most perfect, sweet, unfussy designs that made me oooh! happily. I shared it on our facebook wall, as I’m prone to do, and sadly moved on to less exciting things like laundry and how to remove tea stains from the new hall carpet. A few days went by, and then a parcel arrived. Mr...
