happy easter This
Easter garland decoration kit comes with a selection of delightful,
brightly coloured and patterned pennants each with an Easter theme, and a
set of letters to spell out the words Happy Easter. The kit also
contains a selection of paper chain strips. Length of string 6m. Cost: 10 CHF.
Our washi tape idea today is a keeper. Basically, it is too easy for me even to warrant a "tutorial" but the idea is to decorate plain white little pots with coloured tape to match the party or recipient's favourite colour and then include a little miniature seedling or cacti/succulent inside. And if you are looking for a cost effective option these little pots and plants from IKEA will do the trick as both table centrepieces and party favours in one.

5... 4... 3... 2... Make
an Easter Paper Chain with a new spin by following the old tradition of
using the paper chain to countdown days by tearing off one link for
each day. The Easter Paper Chain Kit is a great way to help little ones manage the
seemingly endless wait until Easter Sunday, and definitely provides
more fun than crossing off days on the kitchen calendar.
Each
kit comes
with 50 perforated paper links that feature colourful printed designs on
both sides, so you are able to make two chains or use one for
decoration.
And if you want to be a "rebel", let the kids count up, not
down, adding a link to the chain each day so it can be used
as a Easter decoration when it's done.
p.s. individual links also make great loops to slot napkins into, or wrap around bud vases.
pretty posters One of our favourite collections in our shop are all the cards and posters from the US Company, Rifle Paper Co. Anna Bond paints the most beautiful artwork and the one below must surely be a firm favourite!

guess how many? Our Washi Tape in a Jar competition was a huge hit, and there were lots and lots of guesses but no one guessed that there were 41! Luckily, Ledia's daughter was super close at 41 and is going to go a little tape crazy!

greener pastures Excited to start thinking about St Patricks Day. As, my husband has Irish heritage we always like to have a little bit of fun on the 17th March. I haven't decided exactly what we will do, but will definitely be incorporating this little clover garland! And have been contemplating some of these ideas over on my Pinterest board...
wakey, wakey So slowly but surely things are making their way from my shop to my house. The girls are going to have to forbidden from the shop; as they keep finding things they NEED! Like this mini alarm clock... I am hoping they will actually listen to it!
