One word: plant-based resin. All bow to plant-based resin. I have to admit I love the look of designs made with resin and polymer but I’m always torn to buy any, because they are basically plastic. And we don’t need more plastic. But recently, I came across a jewellery designer, Sarah Joy, who uses plant-based resin for her jewellery and uses 3D printing to bring her designs to life. So it has my name all over it so far – but that’s not all, they are also cool, very 80’s and early 90’s looking, wonderfully colourful items. Love at the …

This is a collaborative post. In the UK, Classic cars are becoming increasingly expensive, largely thanks to their rarity. For many, a classic car makes a fantastic investment as an appreciating asset. To make things more attractive, classic cars also tend to be fun both to drive and to restore. Once they are restored to their old glory, you also need to protect your vehicle (use a car cover even in the garage) so all the hard work with the restoration will last as long as possible. But how do you get the best from your classic car restoration? Let’s …
Sponsored post. Wet and cold winter weekends are for crafting and baking at home. My girl absolutely loves all crafts, baking and any activities where she can create something new. She’s 5 and we try to encourage everything she likes but actively trying to add STEM activities too. On these occasions we normally hit a double bingo as Bobcat who’s now 7 but not crafty at all and hardly even picked up a colouring pencil, he joins in too because he does like STEM activities. I normally try to find something online and plan ahead so we have everything at …
This is a collaborative post. When people think about a Ferrari the image that always comes to mind is the famous prancing horse logo that adorns the bonnet. Without doubt a Ferrari is one of those cars that needs no introduction. If we’re honest most of us at some time or other have probably dreamt of owning a supercar and there is nothing more iconic than a Ferrari. Now we all know that Ferraris don’t come cheap, so why do so many people dream of having one parked on their drive. Well if you can afford one, there are actually …
I love meaningful decor ideas. The ones which are carrying a personal note, a spark of humour or showing some deeper taste. Whilst I like the idea of minimalism and decluttering, I still want to display my favourite objects at home because they reflect my taste and my most precious memories. I like it, when a home is decorated as a home – which somewhat goes against the current trend of spotless, minimalist but expensive look. But the thing is, in my opinion, that if you want to keep only a few things around and can’t stand clutter – the …
Gifted product. I’ll be honest with you, dear reader. Before this, I have not done any embroidery. I can mend things with a needle and a thread (not very nicely though but still) but I never tried real embroidery. But I thought this might be a great way to pick up a new skill and use it to fix clothes on a decent way. Paraffle Customise Kits So for this reason I was a little nervous how much work will be involved and that it would be too difficult for me. But it wasn’t and I| was pleasantly surprised that …
