Personalised Prints, Created by Magic | Giveaway

[Ad- gifted products] When it comes to decorating the inside of our home with art, we have been trying to get more personalised and meaningful pieces up. Photograph collages have been a big one for us, but when we saw the personalised prints by Created by Magic, they were so stunning and sophisticated, there was no way we couldn’t partner up with them! They basically take an image that you have taken and can make it into a beautiful sketch or add names to some already beautiful works of art, to make them personal to you.

Making Christmas Crafts with Viking Supplies

[Ad- gifted experience] As the Holiday season is upon us, Viking, an office supplier in the United Kingdom, invited a bunch of us bloggers to a Christmas Crafts event. I went along with Claire (who wrote up a lovely post herself) and Dann.

When it comes to Christmas Crafts, I know of quite a few. I expected some sort of Christmas Card to be made, maybe an ornament of some kind – but Viking really blew me away with the event and the crafts featured. Once we got to the Shoreditch Tree House, a fantastic venue that looked much like an open garden, with a large table in the middle, we were met with loads to eat and drink. With a Christmas themed buffet eaten, we moved onto our crafts. Viking had set up two crafts for us all to do, both with the general theme of shredded paper. They had some brand new shredders present, which they used to shred colored paper that can them be used for the crafts! This was a very clever idea and one we had not actually though of before.

Mushroom Hunting in Epping Forest | Wild About Autumn Challenge

We’ve always make an effort to make our way to a forest at the start of each November, especially as this year we have Halloween pumpkins to drop off into the forest so that animals can munch on them as a tasty treat. Getting your used pumpkins out into a forest is a great way to feed some wildlife that’s probably out searching for food at this time of year, especially as there isn’t much left on the forest ground.

November 2019 Goals – Decorations, Shopping, Fixing

It seems like sharing your goals for the month is a ‘thing’ on the internet, so here I am to tell you all about what I want to do this month. I do have a lot of lists, small goals, and things that I need to get done for work, but here I am going to be talking about goals that are not work related, that will be done this month in hopes of actually achieving them. I actually work a lot and spend quite a large amount of my time making sure all of my work is done. That, with housework and generally enjoying going out, really does mean that some basic stuff that I need to get done ends up getting pushed back. Hopefully, publishing what I wanted to get done will help it become achievable.

Christmas Shopping. Christmas is coming quickly! After doing a bit of shopping here and there, I am hoping to actually get all of this done before the end of November. We have so much planned next month, that having all of the shopping done and the presents wrapped but stored, will just mean we have more time to enjoy the December feel in the air. I also need to get all of the fancy Christmas cards that I send my family sent out, so that they actually arrive in time for Christmas. I normally send my dad a little gift too, so I’ll need to get right on that.
