How I’m Getting Organised For The New Year

AD | Contains gifted items I don’t know about you but when it comes to the New Year I like to be as organised as possible. We tend to have a lot going on all of the time and I hate feeling stressed or panicked about getting everything done. So, each New Year I put a plan in place to get myself organised and ready for anything we have coming up. Getting into this frame of mind takes a bit of practice though and I never used to be like this. Now though, with a

Celebrating Shakespeare Day

AD | Gifted items Back when I was at university studying English I took a whole module about Shakespeare. Why I picked it at the time I have no idea. I think I thought I could get by watching some films and BBC adaptations but that really wasn’t the case at all. A lot of people need help with things like writing essays and can use companies like domyhomework123 if they want to. Regardless of how I did in that module (not that well) Shakespeare is such an important part of our literary history and

Trigg Life Mapper Planner Review

Even before I was a blogger I loved getting new stationery and one of my favourite things to get was either a new planner or notebook. Now that I used at least 3 different kinds at any one time I’m always on the look out for something new and different. Last year when I attended the London Stationery Show I discovered the Trigg Life Mapper Planner. The problem with a lot of planners is that they don’t really account for everything you need it to do, unless you bullet journal and make something yourself. Personally,

The Importance Of Handwriting

One thing I remember so clearly about being in primary school was learning to write. I remember those worksheets where you had to trace the letters with your pencil and then copy yourself on the line underneath. I remember doing those over and over again for hours but I like to think that I have quite nice handwriting. I’m the one who writes the birthday and Christmas cards because I’m always telling my husband he has horrible man writing. I don’t actually think that’s a thing but my handwriting is definitely neater. Erin will be

When You Find The Perfect Pen

I’m the kind of person that still loves to write things down with a pen and paper. I have so many notebooks I could probably start a small shop and my pens are colour coded in a lovely organiser. I have always been a fan of stationery and it’s not something I see going away any time soon. Back in May when I attended Blog On for the first time, we were given pens in the opening session. The minute I started writing with that pen I was made a happy woman. You see, I’m

Standout Stationery From Rooi.com

If you are a regular reader you will already know how much I love stationery. I can’t get enough of it and I will admit that I’m a bit of an addict. Recently we had the opportunity to pick out some items from Rooi.com and I immediately fell in love with their stationery options. Honestly, I could have spent hundreds of pounds. Caroline Gardner A little while ago I got some lovely notebooks and pens from Caroline Gardner and I fell in love with the brand. I was a little ashamed of myself for not

TOAD Diaries Notebook and Diary Review & Giveaway

For as long as I can remember I have lovely stationery. When I was at school I couldn’t wait to get a new pencil case or a new notebook. I’m no different now at 31.

Doodle Collection Notebooks Review

I’d be lying if I said I didn’t have quite the collection of notebooks. The truth is, I’m a bit of a stationery addict and I love getting something new! Doodle Collection isn’t a brand that I’d heard of before recently but I’m very glad I have now. I chose two notebooks and they stood out to me immediately. I chose the Idea Beige Diary and Goals Brown Diary which are from the Motivational range. I am always looking for ways to help making blogging and scheduling easier so picking these two notebooks was a really
