Homemade blackberry Vinegar is a great way to use up leftover blackberries, which I always have when we go blackberry picking as we never fail to pick more than we need!I bet you're wondering what blackberry vinegar is though, aren't you?Well, it's nothing fancy, it's literally blackberry infused vinegar but it makes an amazing salad dressing and is said to ward off a cold if you drink a teaspoon a day in hot water when you feel the cold coming on. I can vouch for the first one but the second, I suspect is nothing more than an old wives tale although I'll try anything to stop a … [Read more...]

Homemade Shake n Vac….
Today I'm going all nostalgic on you and sharing some TV ads from my youth which I bet lots of you of a certain age will remember just as well as I do. The reason I'm sharing them is that I've made a batch of my own homemade Shake n Vac and the whole time I was making and using it, I couldn't help but sing the song.In fact, aside from the milky way advert with the two cars racing each other, the only other advert I can remember from when I was growing up is the Glade Shake n Vac one. They're both songs that remind me of watching TV with my Mam and Dad and always make me smile for that … [Read more...]
Homemade Bath Jelly….
Remember my homemade pink prosecco gummy bear jelly sweets? They taught me a valuable lesson in life - that you can add gelatin (or vege-gel) to pretty much everything and you'll end up with a jelly. Sooooo, I thought we could investigate making some homemade bath jelly and the results were fab!Homemade Bath Jelly is my new favourite thing - the possibilities are endless as you make it using your own favourite body wash. It's also an excellent excuse to use up all that shower gel and body wash that you're probably accumulating in the cupboard under your sink.I made one using a … [Read more...]

Homemade pizza breadsticks are our new favourite food - they're easy to make and you wouldn't believe how amazing they taste.We've been having regular movie nights over the last month or so which is something we haven't done in a while as we could never agree on which film to watch. We've been watching some older movies that we wanted to see with the kids because we remembered enjoying them when we first watched them way back in the day - Air Force One, Speed and the Back to the Future Trilogy have been our most recent watches!A teenager's attention span is a bit limited so rather … [Read more...]
Homemade Honey and Oatmeal Soap…
This year I've been trying to get a bit more creative and learning to make my own soap was something I've wanted to do for a while so today, I'm sharing my first attempt - Honey and Oatmeal Soap!I always thought homemade soap would be too much of a faff for me but a little while ago I was buying some shea butter from Amazon for another project when I came across 'Melt and Pour Soap Base' which is amazing! It's literally a soap base that comes in cubes which you just need to melt, add your other ingredients and then pour it into your moulds.I bought my soap moulds for under £2.00 … [Read more...]
36 Simple homemade ornaments for kids….
We've seriously downgraded our Christmas decorations this year thanks to the fact that we have a new addition to our family, Monty who's a 10-week old Bichon Frise, Shih Tzu cross puppy. He's into everything so we thought a smaller tree would be good this year as our usual one is floor to ceiling and quite bushy.I didn't want to buy an artificial tree so we went with a real one that was small enough that we could stand on a table in the living room out of Monty's reach. It's cute but a little wonky and because it's smaller than usual, we decided to really cut back on the tree … [Read more...]
