Abandoned Crochet

Well, I abandoned Woolly's project and started another...lol. I blame it on the wool!! I bought some that looks like Mint choc chip ice-cream...

Thats now 3 crochet projects on the go!

Please excuse the office mess.

New Home Page Photo

I have added a new photo to my website home page. Its of my 2 babies; Archie and Mia. They are in their itti bitti d'lish. I adore these nappies. Archie has now potty trained himself so no more gorgeous nappies for him. Its a good job I sell them otherwise I would be having withdrawal symptoms.

I've been waiting for the photo since the new site became up and running. I now finally feel its looks more finished.

Tots Bots

Tots Bots arrived this morning. Now I know a lot of people like their pockets but I first started out with Tots Bots and I successfully used them for 2 years with my son Archie. So, I am particularly happy to be stocking them.

They've recently updated their wraps and it will be interesting to see what people think of them.

So, if you are using the new tots bots wrap why not pop onto the site and write us a review?

Work/Life Balance

Its quite hard to maintain a good work life balance when you work for yourself. I seem to spend an awful lot of time running the business. Even when I'm sat down eating tea or putting the washing in the machine, I find I'm always thinking of things I need to do.

I have decided that its now time to set myself working hours......

Using Reusable Nappies – What Do You Need?

In actual fact you don’t need very much to get you started using cloth nappies. Its not even necessary to go out and buy them all at once. Buying 1 or 2 a month will soon get up you up to a full ‘stash’ in no time and will also enable you to discover which nappies work the best for you and your baby.

You need to think about how often you are going to wash your nappies. This will give you a good idea how many you will need to get you through till the next wash.
If washing every other day for a newborn you will need approximately 20 nappies. If kitting out an older child you will need between 10 and 15 nappies.

Additional to the nappies, you may need -

A lidded bucket. It doesn’t have to be a specific nappy bucket you may be able to pick one up cheaply from your local DIY store. The nappy bucket is the place to store your soiled nappies till wash day.



A wet bag, to put your dirty nappies in, when you’re out and about. These come in a range of funky and practical designs.


Liners if the type of nappy system you have chosen require them. Liners can be either washable or flushable. Liners help keep the moisture away from the baby’s skin and they retain solids so that they are easier to flush down the toilet.



Booster pads. These are used if your baby is a heavy wetter or needs to wear the nappy through the night.
