serenata.hampers (1 of 1)-5.text.serenata.hampers (1 of 1)Fancy an unexpected treat for yourself? Or perhaps you need a thoughtful gift for a special occasion? Well, I have the perfect competition for you.  Enter today and you could win a luxury hamper of your choice, courtesy of Serenata Hampers.  Just tell us what would be in your ideal hamper? by filling in the Rafflecopter below.

I was also given the opportunity to review one myself and chose the ‘beer buff’s gift box‘ to share on a date night with Neil last week.  It was lovely to share, just the two of us, and provided the perfect mix of treats for us.  We were both big fans of the beer, which truly is the best we’ve tasted and I just loved the spicy crackers and cheese.

I admit it was difficult to choose which hamper I’d like, and if it was just for me, I think I’d love to try the Ladies That Sparkle hamper or the ‘Time for Tea Trug‘.  All hampers are posted in a lovely Serenata Hampers box, well packaged and ready to be enjoyed and include quality items that give an extra special feel.

Majestic Lighting Giveaway

Scandi Chic

When thinking about designing a new space I often choose one particular item that I love, to design around.  Items that you are really taken with, often inspire an entire room scheme, helping decide what kind of feel to create.  Lighting in particular is a great indicator of the mood you would like to create in a room, and really helps to make a place feel homely and relaxing.

Recently the simplistic yet bold Scandi style has really been appealing to me.  Those bold geometric patterns mixed with natural wood and differing textures.  Here I have used the Nevada table lamp to put together a simple mood board using a range of different options that will create a Scandi look using just a few items.  I have designed this little area with either a bedroom or living room in mind making it a flexible choice, and the lamp itself provides some simple, neutral style that could easily adapt to other designs. What kind of design would you choose for this lovely lamp?

To be on with a chance of winning this gorgeous lamp courtesy of Lighting Majestic please fill in the Rafflecopter below. The competition ends 12.00AM GMT 05/04/2014

Baby and Toddler Show Tickets Giveaway

March 23, 2014 by Jenni Clutten | 11 Comments

logoFancy checking out whats new in baby and toddler world?  Then why not enter my giveaway below to win two free tickets to the baby and toddler show!  I don’t know about you but I love a time saving gadget, anything that makes life a bit easier.  Ever since I was pregnant with Nye it has been such a relief to go somewhere where everything is all in one place, and this is a perfect opportunity to see a really wide range of products and services.  No constant hopping in and out of the car, unsettling a new baby or wrangling an unwilling toddler.

2nd baby essentials
I know it can be a bit daunting when you are pregnant, just working out what you really will need.  I was totally clueless and didn’t want to spend a huge amount on things I didn’t need.  I found this article on what different people spend really interesting, personally we tried to get the very best deals, including buying second hand.  I also like to have a little splurge here and there and of course there are some things you really need to buy new like a mattress or car seat.

Thinking back there are lots of things we did buy that we have re-used for our second baby, as well as some new editions, including a maxi cosi car seat because it fits our new mountain buggy duet pushchair.  I will say this though, every family is different and it’s important to think about how a baby fits into your life.  We try out best to reduce the waste we have, so reusable nappies have been such a good investment.  Not only do they reduce waste, it’s such a nice feeling knowing what’s next to your precious newborns skin.  Hence why we also love using reusable wipes, cheeky wipes are a great example of how reusable wipes can fit into your everyday routine.

To be in with a chance to win two free tickets, just tell me what your must have baby item is using the rafflecopter below.

i-pic personalised picture frame – review & giveaway

I am slightly addicted to giving photos as gifts.  I’ve been giving framed photos for years as I don’t think there’s anything better to receive than a picture to relive a happy memory as you pass it in your home.  I love … Continue reading
