This session has only just reopened and we were quite eager for some fun. The SnoZone is situated in Milton Keynes MK9 3XS and was quite easy to find. There is ampleContinue reading "Family Sleigh Session at SnoZone, Milton Keynes"
Mystical Afternoon Tea at Taj 51 (Review)
Last week we were invited to the beautiful Taj 51 Buckingham Gate Suites and Residence to enjoy their Mystical Afternoon Tea. The Taj 51 is a beautiful 5 star hotel that sits in Victoria and we had heard so many lovely reviews of their Alice in Wonderland Tea, so we were really looking forward toContinue reading "Mystical Afternoon Tea at Taj 51 (Review)"
Osmo Review
We have been fans of Osmo now for a little while and have quite an extensive collection. But truth be told I came across Osmo a few years ago and although Ita was too young at the time, I always remembered seeing the different sets and thinking how fun they looked. I had wondered ifContinue reading "Osmo Review"
Festive Afternoon Tea in London
This was by far one of the most requested blog topics I think I have ever had. Happily, this is a topic I know lots about and really enjoy too! Over the years we have tried lots of different afternoon teas and I honestly believe that if you visit London, then afternoon tea is essential!Continue reading "Festive Afternoon Tea in London"
Christmas Photo Spots in London
Yesterday afternoon I posted some pictures to my stories of our walk around London. It prompted quite a few responses and all with the same theme, how beautiful London was looking in its festive attire and how I capture lovely photos of Ita in London. I certainly do not have the skills to remove peopleContinue reading "Christmas Photo Spots in London"
Ita’s playhouse (The Snug from Waltons)
Over the years, I have had so many lovely and positive comments on Ita’s playhouse, especially on our seasonal makeovers. As such, I thought I would share more info on her playhouse and on how we create the little transformations. Just before the Halloween transformation Ita has had this playhouse now for around 3 andContinue reading "Ita’s playhouse (The Snug from Waltons)"
Giving Back this Christmas, 2020
It would be fair to say that 2020 has been the weirdest year. The covid pandemic was a real shock to the world and most have been affected by it in one way or another. It changed everything we had planned but I am absolutely determined that it won’t affect Christmas. (Even if it seemsContinue reading "Giving Back this Christmas, 2020"
The Marriott Regents Park Hotel Staycation (With Elmer the Patchwork Elephant)
Press Visit It’s no secret that this year has scuppered our travel plans. We were really fortunate to have gone to Dubai in January but our dream holiday to Disneyworld was cancelled and our ‘make up for it’ trip to Disneyland Paris was also vetoed. The thing about holidays and breaks away is that theyContinue reading "The Marriott Regents Park Hotel Staycation (With Elmer the Patchwork Elephant)"
Halloween Festival, Marsh Farm Essex
(Press Trip) We have just returned home from a brilliant day at Marsh Farm and all I want to do it talk about it! As always, the theme is eccentric and detailed and we had such a ghoulishly fun day. Ita and Frank At the moment, you can buy tickets to either the pumpkin patchContinue reading "Halloween Festival, Marsh Farm Essex"
Winnifred Sanderson (Hocus Pocus) DIY Costume
After posting this photo of Ita as Winnifred Sanderson from Hocus Pocus, I was blown away by the response. Mostly because we all know Ita isn’t the biggest Halloween fan, so this was the only character she wanted to be… and because buying this costume in the UK is completely unattainable, I put this togetherContinue reading "Winnifred Sanderson (Hocus Pocus) DIY Costume"
