I love a good kids activity, so when my daughter had a playdate this week I decided to set them up with a fun craft. These butterfly cupcake toppers would be so great for a birthday party too. Either they could be made before hand as decor, or as a party activity. Of course they’d…

Chocolate, Nut and Seed Clusters // Recipe
Chocolate is my weakness. Like, properly a weakness. Especially if I’m tired or it’s just been a long day of being mommy. In an attempt to make my chocolate snack a little bit healthier I’ve made some dark chocolate, nut and seed clusters. It still gives the chocolate taste, but also includes some healthy fats…
Rainbow Cake Topper & Mini Cupcake Toppers // DIY
One thing I love about birthdays is making a birthday cake. I almost almost always use a box cake mix for guaranteed yumminess. The part I enjoy most is coming up with the decorations for the top though. We recently hosted our daughter’s fourth birthday party and she chose a rainbow theme. Pastel rainbow to…
Mini Floral Smash Cake // Tutorial
Everyone says that time flies by when you have a child. Sometimes they are so wrong, but most of the time they are so so right! It suddenly hit me yesterday that in just four short months our little Bubs will be turning two. TWO! She has grown so much since then and is truly…
Oat Banana Toddler Pancakes Recipe // Baby Bullet
Making toddler meals can be a tiring process. I often find myself out of ideas for interesting and healthy foods, that are still easy to whip up. These oat banana toddler pancakes are now one of our go to breakfasts (with leftovers for snacks). Using a blender, like the Baby Bullet, helps turn raw oats…

Painted Sweet Jars // DIY
I think I’ve finally decided that my favourite colour is “pastel”. I know, I know, that’s not really a colour, but it does mean all the classic Easter colours work pretty well for me 🙂 Today I’m taking advantage of my pastel dreams and sharing some painted sweet jars that would be great for using…
Watercolour Easter Eggs // DIY
How do you like your eggs? Fried, scrambled or chocolate? I’m normally I fried kinda girl, but if chocolate is an option then it’s a tough call! Add in some Easter pastels and botanical details and you’re good to go with just about anything. So when Theuniskraal asked me to do an Easter DIY for…
Heart Funfetti Cookies // Recipe
Do you ever feel like you just need to add a little sprinkles to the everyday things of life? It is way to easy for our day to day activities to take over and the fun side of life to get pushed aside. While small, funfetti is a great way to add an extra little bit…
Christmas Marshmallow Rice Krispie Treats // Recipe
It’s just too days to go until Christmas! Are you still looking for a simple little something to add to your holiday table? These little Rice Krispie Treats made into Christmas Trees are a cute little DIY addition. They could even be left plain and used as a fun decorating activity to keep the children…
Chocolate Coated Pretzels // DIY
One of my favourite treats has always been chocolate coated pretzels. I somehow fool myself into thinking it’s a healthier option (and well, chocolate). Shop bought ones always leave me feeling disappointed though (because well, not enough chocolate). My obvious solution is always to make my own homemade ones and you can too!
