Scented Lanolin and Custom Crocheted Soakers

Our first scent is in the shop...Fruit Sundae. So exciting. This gorgeous scent is 100% natural. Absolutely NO artificial synthetic fragrances are used so you can be sure it is 100% COMPLETELY NATURAL.

PS Mrs Bobby Dazzlers I stole your picture :D

Plus I am soooo chuffed to announce custom crocheted soaker slots available. You can either provide the wool yourself (as I know some people collect it!!) or we can decide on a colour and we go from there.

I'm working on crocheted embellishments as well at the moment. So all exciting stuff!

A bit star happy



I just had to share these 2 photo's. Archie got a packet of stars and they are now everywhere!!!! lol


Another soaker


I did ribbed leg cuffs this time. I'm really pleased with how they turned out.
definately on longies next. I got some fab wool from Emma at Bobby Dazzlers, so I think I will start the waist band in anticipation of the wool arriving.

Eco friendly nappies for sensitive little souls


If normal reusable nappies just don't agree with your little one why not try one of these?

Its a Nappeco. a completely eco friendly nappy.
The outer is a snuggly and soft layer of felted 100% Organic Wool interlock and the inner a sumptuous 100% Organic Cotton velour. Even the thread and the elastic used in this nappy is natural and organic. Only the polyresin snaps are plastic based.
We have exclusive embroideries and I have to admit they are gorgeous.
Come and try one I am sure you won't be disappointed.

Poorly Mia

I think she is teething. She has a temperature and is grouchy, not like the normal sunny little baby at all. Bless her little heart.

Wipes Cubes

We have wipes cubes now added to the 'So Scrumptious' range. Unrefined shea butter, Mandarin Oil and Chamomile.

Bloomin gorgeous.

Honestly I bet you never use Baby Wipes again after using these with your reusable wipes or cotton wool.

Oooo couple of things today...

Really REALLY exciting things happening for Bibs n Bots. I cannot tell you how excited I am. British Lanolin. Yey. I have been pulling this idea together for about 2 months now and next week it will be potted and ready to ship. How exciting.


The thing that started the idea was how all us woolly loving mums buy our Lanloin from American WAHMs.. seemed so silly.. why don't British WAHMs do it?


So I set about sourcing some and yey I found some... So...... I currently have a 25kg metal drum in my back room. I have the pots to pot it and I'm just waiting for labels; these are also done by a WAHM.


So not only is it British it's a total WAHM collaberation.


The Lanolin is called 'So Scrumptious' Lanolin.


'So Scrumptious' is the new range exclusive to Bibs N Bots.


We also have a 'So Scrumptious' Skincare Balm arriving this week.


The balm can be used on babies and on other family members. Its fab for problem skin like dry skin or eczema and sore skin caused by nappy rash...as its Paraben and SLS free. It works well with cloth nappies too.


Plus we have 'So Scrumptious' Bath melts...blooming gorgeous. These are made from organic cocoa butter, mandarin and chamomile (organic).
These are truly amazing. Use half a melt for a baby or a full one as a treat for yourself.


Really exciting stuff...


Ooooo and I finished the soaker so here is pic of Mia wearing it.



Lovely I hope you'll agree. The soakers not bad either..lol.
