Loving… A birth story {Meeting Evan Almighty}

October 31, 2017

Not everyone is a fan of birth stories.  I’m not even sure how I feel about birth stories.  Firstly, I hate the term “birth story”.  But then I think that any of the alternatives, like “birth journey” or “birth memoir” sound even more pretentious, so I’ll stick with birth story for now. I’ve had mixed…

Loving…Make Spring Better {Prominent Paints part 1}

October 25, 2017

Does anyone else really struggle with making bold design choices?  I’ve wanted to paint a feature wall in our living area for ages, but I’ve really battled with committing to a plan!  Which is silly, considering that we could realistically paint over any disasters.  So, when Prominent Paints contacted me a little while ago about…

Loving… A weekend in Robertson {Gorgeous Getaway}

May 14, 2017

We recently decided to take advantage of one of the long weekends to go away with little Evan and our parents.  Initially we couldn’t decide on where to go, but eventually we settled on the Robertson wine valley.  We’d only driven through the region on our way to the Garden Route, so I was keen to…

Loving… DIY magnets {Baby’s first craft}

May 7, 2017

A couple of months ago we celebrated our first Christmas since welcoming baby Evan to our family.  Since I knew that he would be spoilt with gifts from family members, I wanted to organise a token gift for each person that was “from” Evan.  Thankfully a friend spotted these DIY fridge magnet kits at The…

Loving… Stowe & So {gorgeous gifts}

April 24, 2017

I love finding local online stores that have original and reasonable items. I came across Stowe & So towards the end of last year, and I immediately added some of their items to my Christmas wishlist!  I love my little piggy cereal bowl, and my “deskpet” calendar brightens up my desk at work.  I also…

Loving… a courtyard make-over {fun with Prominent Paints}

April 21, 2017

Before I get started on our courtyard make-over, I hope you’ve noticed that the blog has had a bit of a make-over too? I’m so sorry to those of you who got 7 random emails in your inbox – some technical gremlins crept in during the make-over process! When we moved into our house 2…

Loving…Finding my Perfect Pair {fun with Superbalist}

February 20, 2017

I love Valentine’s Day. Not because of the cheesy cards and boxes of chocolates in the shops, but because it’s the day that I met my husband.  It’s the day that he literally pulled my name out of a hat and knocked on my res room door.   But fast forward thirteen years, and here we…

Loving…Pressed flower art {Nostalgic Beauty}

February 10, 2017

When I think of pressed and dried flowers, I can’t help thinking of greeting cards sold at church bazaars.  But thanks to amazing artists like Janine Vermeulen from Foraged, this art form is gaining in popularity.  Thankfully, it’s something that is accessible to everyone, and it’s a fun activity to do with kids.  I have fond memories of…
