FIRST BIRTHDAY: Gift Inspiration

As Isabella's first birthday is in around a week I thought I'd share some gift ideas that are ideal for first birthdays. Babies are such hard little beings to buy for, with interests constantly changing you really want to find gifts that will last. This collection of gift inspiration are all chosen due to their longevity, outstanding quality and serious cuteness (of course!)

BABY: DIY Hand printed Leggings Lookbook

Handprinting baby clothes has quickly become one of my top hobbies, only second to blogging. I make the most of Isabella's naps and early bedtime to create handprinted clothes for her. I love the creativness of hand stamping, making your own patterns and designs. Each of these leggings are completely bespoke to Isabella and only cost anywhere between £2-£4 to create. They aren't perfect but that's what I love about them, it's all part of them being unique. They are seriously easy to make and the possibility are endless! To read my full tutorial on how I made these handprinted leggings click here. I thought I'd put together this kind of lookbook to share the handprinted leggings I've made so far as inspiration for anyone who fancies having a go themselves.

NURSERY: New Grey and White Star Additions

Grey and white stars is the theme we have in Isabella's nursery, it's not overwhelming but a few key pieces here and there. We went for a subtle grey/white on the walls, a feature turquoise cot and grey accessories - all of which a pretty gender neutral. Isabella won't be in her current bedroom forever, so we didn't want to make the room overly 'girly'. Recently we've picked up a couple of new additions to fit with the grey and white star theme and best of all they were bargains!

PLAYROOM: Creating a sensory tent at home

As part of Isabella's playroom I really wanted to create a sensory tent, as she loves anything that lights up or shines.

BABY: A couple of different ways to remember those key moments...


I love creating happy memories but am not always the best at remembering them years down the line. Having a baby has bought so many happy/exciting/unique memories and I'm determined not to forgot them!

BABY: Bargains from current Mother and Baby Events 2015!

If you're a parent or parent to be I'm sure you've not missed the various Mother & Baby events going on throughout the different supermarkets currently. So far we've visited Aldi and Tesco, but have our eyes on some of the other offers available. There are some deals better than others, so I thought I'd put together a list the best offers and where to get them from. I've also tried to include the RRP of the products, so you know quite what the discount/offer is. I hope this is helpful, as there is plenty of money to be saved!

Morrisons
In store now - 15th February 2015
After comparing prices at other stores and on amazon.co.uk I don't think that Morrisons Baby & Child Event offers many good deals at all. If you shop around a lot of their 'deals' are actually more expensive than the usual price at places like amazon.co.uk. There are a range of offers on Johnsons baby products, pampers nappies, huggies wipes, pull ups and drynites but I couldn't find any offers on at Morrisons that were better than other shops. Below are ones I found to be the best deals...



RRP £28
RRP £21
RRP £13.99

ASDA

RRP £14 each
RRP £19.99
RRP £22.89

Sainsbury's
In store now - 24th February 2015
There are various offers that are the same price at Sainsbury's as I've already listed from other supermarkets. If you're only near to a Sainsbury's it would be worth checking out the products that are the same, e.g. Pampers Baby Wipes Sensitive 5x56 is £4.50 at Sainsbury's as well as Tesco.

RRP £4 each
RRP £9.50 each
RRP £6.50 each
RRP £8.50

RRP £29.99
Tommee Tippee Explora Cool And Mash Bowl Lid And Spoon
RRP £4.99


Phew, well that took a lot longer than I anticipated and I'm sorry it's such a long post! I think that's all of the main offers but please feel free to add any great finds in the comments below :)

*While researching the prices I did find a lot of the items on 'offer' in the supermarkets are cheaper on amazon.co.uk, so it's worth checking there first. I have tried not to include any items that are cheaper on amazon in this blog post.*

Have you picked up any bargains in the recent Mother & Baby Events?

Feel free to leave me a comment :)
