Stuff I Don't Need: She's A Lady

http://stuffidontneedblog.blogspot.com/2012/05/shes-lady.html

Friday, 11 May 2012. I've had a request for 60th birthday gift ideas for mum. An excellent challenge. I think we want to keep this one out of the ordinary. At the same time, what has this particular kind of special woman NOT received from her children over the years. I take up the gauntlet with the following suggestions and I hope that she won't be disappointed. 1 Ivory Freshwater Pearl Earrings by Highland Angel £ 22.00. Simple. Beautiful. Elegant. Timeless. The perfect gift for a lady. I've collected t...

http://stuffidontneedblog.blogspot.com/2012/05/no-brainer-of-month.html

Thursday, 10 May 2012. No Brainer of The Month. I just found this and it is, hands down, my new absolute ultimate recommendation for a new baby gift. Available now in a whole rainbow of colours from the completely edible baby boutique Tuppence and Crumble. For £19.95. It's completely out of this world! Labels: £15 - £20. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). This is my quest for the perfect gift. It IS the thought that counts. Livie and Luca Shoes. The Glam Camping Company. Ebury Home and Garden.

Stuff I Don't Need: January 2013

http://stuffidontneedblog.blogspot.com/2013_01_01_archive.html

Sunday, 20 January 2013. Check out this glorious handcrafted ceramics business on Etsy: CircaCeramics. I've book-marked it for my Birthday and Christmas shopping list this year. Lovely bold colours and line-drawn graphics. There is something for everyone here and my mug cupboard is looking a little shabby these days. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). This is my quest for the perfect gift. My philosophy is never to give something that I wouldn't be over the moon to receive myself. No socks or smellies here.

http://stuffidontneedblog.blogspot.com/2012_07_01_archive.html

Thursday, 12 July 2012. So the purpose of this post is to find things that are clean, unobtrusive and have a simple elegance. I'll need hooks, hand towels, artwork and ornaments for the window sill.

Stuff I Don't Need: June 2012

http://stuffidontneedblog.blogspot.com/2012_06_01_archive.html

Thursday, 28 June 2012. My toddler has been invited to her first proper birthday party so this calls for a big post. In honour of her mate Esme's 2nd birthday (and because HM's recent insatiable interest in the content of my jewellery box has indicated that she is a real girl now) I will break things down into two important shopping areas. Outfit and present. Let's start with the clothes! 1 Wild Things - Funky Little Dresses by Kirsty Hartley £32.00. 2 Sister's Guild Bobo Choses Dress £35.00. Reassuringl...

Stuff I Don't Need: May 2012

http://stuffidontneedblog.blogspot.com/2012_05_01_archive.html

Wednesday, 23 May 2012. God Save The Queen. 1 The Design Mould at Hirst and Hirst Living £10.00. Superb colour palette, the feel of a fine art print, a lovely rendering of St Edward's crown and makes appropriate and clever use of the wartime propaganda style without looking like yet another clone of the "that poster". Love. Love. Love. 2 Have A Gander on Folksy £9.00. That are also little magic works of art and would also look fabulous in my kitchen. I particularly love the Bacon and Champagne ones.
