Recently I reviewed a car seat for the new parenting advise website Bella Kidz and to help celebrate my blogs first birthday they have kindly given me a £5 gift voucher to use a The White Company.


I had heard of the White Company before but never actually looked at their website. This was the perfect time to have a nose and oh my, I wish I had`nt, my bank balance isn't going to appreciate it!! The products that they provide are gorgeous and I am totally in love with the kids range -  The Little White Company, now I know that white isn't always practical with kids but they look so smart in white.

My favourite item by far has to be the textured pixie bootie, I just need to find an excuse to get them for Benjamin!!!

The Xcut Xpress Die-Cutting Machine from docrafts does exactly that.

All Wrapped Up with wrapped4you

Do you go the extra mile when organising a party??

It was one of my close friends hen do the other weekend and I was asked to help plan it...eekk, no pressure there then!!

We had a lovely day of pampering planned followed by a lovely meal at a local Thai restaurant.

The obligatory hen veil and sash was bought, as were the name badges and wobbly heart headbands, but I wanted something different.

After endless hours of researching on the web I came across the lovely Kerry and her business called Wrapped For You. Wrapped For You provide personalised chocolate party favour/treats for any occasion.




























Kerry can supply you with any design, be it a pre designed template or you can design you own.

Wrapped For You caters for any event you can think of....baby shower, hen party, leaving do, birthday party, wedding, christening, baptism, fundraiser, blogger meet up, the list is endless.

Now, I did leave organising something rather late and contacted Kerry with only 3 days to go to the hen do but she worked a miracle and got to them to me on time, even though normal turn around is usually 20 days.....MIRACLE WORKER!!

The ordering system is so easy and within a few clicks they were sorted.

I was a tad worried about having thin chocolate favours sent in the post because I can only imagine what happens to a parcel on route to its destination!! I had visions of opening the box to find them in a million pieces but they arrived in perfect condition, all wrapped up a lovely little package of brown paper. There was even an extra one in a cellophane bag which had a little card in saying "for your memory box"...how cute is that??

I decided on the stilletto design as my friend, Jeni, loves her shoes, and had it personalised with her name, the date of the hen do and on the back a little line saying Mrs Hale to-be.



They looked great scattered over the table and had a lot of hens say that they were a lovely touch and for an astonishing 20p each they tasted amazing too!!

If you are looking for something a little different for a party or event that your are planning then you MUST take a look at  Wrapped For You.

Jeni loved her little treats xx

I received this product free of charge in exchange for my honest opinion of the product.
