    Walt Disney World Countdown… 60 Days to Go

    February 4, 2015 /

        My blog has been on hiatus but since the one thing that has kept me going over the last week is thinking and talking about Disney all. the. time, I couldn’t let today go by without doing a Disney Countdown Update. Today is the 60 day mark until our Walt Disney World holiday, and tomorrow it’ll be two months until we go! Two months today we’ll be travelling to the airport and staying over night as we have an early morning flight. Friday is my Grandfather’s funeral but I know what will get me through it is the fact I’ll be able to tell people it’s less than…

    Why I’m Glad I Moved Home

    January 28, 2015 /

    Although today saw my little girl turn three, it’s actually been one of the hardest days of my life. My other grandfather will not be with us much longer, and knowing this but having to smile and put on a show for Little Miss has left me a bit of a mess now she’s in bed. I know it wasn’t just me, my mother was wonderful and put on such a brave face. I only fell apart once, reading the card from my grandparents to LM signed for the last time “Nanny & Grandpa” even just thinking about it now, breaks my heart. And although tomorrow I will be bringing…

    For The First Time in Forever, I’m Getting What I’m Dreaming Of

    January 22, 2015 /

    Well there was always going to be a Frozen outfit SOMEWHERE, right? In fact, I have two Frozen patterned dresses, and one Anna coronation inspired dress to take on holiday with me, so technically that makes this one the first of three. This is also the first of my handmade dresses. I bought this one last summer before I’d even decided I wanted all Disney inspired outfits to take on holiday. I saw it on a lovely lady called Lisa’s Instagram selling page and I knew I just had to have it. Not only is it one of the very rare Disney pieces she’s ever made but the cut is…

    Interior Design Content // How to Make Your Bathroom Look Bigger*

    January 21, 2015 /

    I’m in the process of decorating my bathroom at the moment but due to the fact my daughter’s room is right next door means no painting once she’s in bed. My biggest problem is the fact my bathroom is small with no storage but thankfully i’ve been researching ways to make it feel bigger on a budget.   A small bathroom can be inconvenient but there are ways to make your bathroom look bigger to the eye. Of course a bathroom needs all the basic bathroom furniture to satisfy your basic needs such as a toilet, shower or bathtub and sink, no matter the size of the bathroom. Anything else…

    Five Underrated Disney Movies I Love

    January 21, 2015 /

    So, there are 54 Disney Classic movies, with 53 of them available on DVD (I also want to add in here I now own all 53, including some sequels) Number 54 is of course Big Hero 6 and it hasn’t been released in UK cinema’s yet. Out of all 54 of these, there are only about half that have authentic merchandise available to buy because these are considered the “popular” movies. I’m not going to deny that some of them are also some my favourite, such as Frozen, Tangled, Peter Pan, Alice in Wonderland, The Little Mermaid & Beauty and the Beast. In fact, I love all the Princess movies.…
