The Hydrangea Blanket is a soft and pretty single bed sized cover in fifteen different bright and pastel hues. I adore hydrangeas and love seeing them all in different colours. They remind me of holidays on the Isle Of…

On Saturday September 10th, which was only two days after the announcement came about the passing of Queen Elizabeth II. I ended up not eating breakfast until later and then decided we needed a little treat. I had been watching all the news updates and feeling so sad. I made us some Scotch Pancakes (otherwise…
