{Christmas Shopping} Thanks to the teacher

Each and every year I want to find a way to say thank you to those beautiful people who not only teach, but care for my little birdies. 

It’s a really hard choice trying to find something to buy. I feel like most educators receive WAY too much chocolate. Probably have 14hundredthousand coffee cups and probably enough body wash to last a lifetime. 

So when I recently found these gorgeous personalised candles and lolly jars I was over the moon. 

I love that they are personalised, but also gorgeous gifts (plus they aren’t too exxy!)

A small business run by two entrepreneurial mamas these delightful gifts with be treasured for sure. 

If you would like to order your very own personalised gift you can contact:

Amelia King on facebook: https://www.facebook.com/amelia.king.18

or call Brittani Hotham on: 0421 10 4540

Happy Christmas to all the teachers and child educators out there!

{Christmas Prizeapolooza 2017} JEM Creative is all the Christmas you need

Talent. Skill. Approachable.

Clever. Quality. Afforable.

I seriously think I could go on and on about all the things I love about JEM Creative Design Co.

Owned and operated by Janessa Docking, JEM Creative Design Co. offers graphic design prints for your nursery, home and office.  20728744_712869705571339_4661615198518932484_o

After growing up with a dad who worked in printery Janessa developed a real love of all things paper and design. She says at school she had a pencil collection that a full time artist would be envious of, she would often have title pages more detailed than the work that actually followed it! She knew from an early age her future would be laced will illustrations, fancy fonts and plenty of colour!

4 years ago while on maternity leave with her entirely scrumptious little bambino Janessa wanted a special something for his nursery so designed it herself. That’s when JEM Creative Design Co. started! 23334085_748621915329451_703408838486945275_o

{Christmas Prizeapolooza 2016} Tinkered By and loved

A little while ago on the blog I showed my love for a beautiful little business called TinkeredBy and I am still as much in love. This business is absolutely wonderful, not only offering sensational and fabulous pieces but also helping people.

Run by creative sister duo, Kate Boston and Rachael Steadman TinkeredBy is more than just a shop, it is a movement.

kates

TinkeredBy  is all about the truly hand made. They support sustainable products that are sourced with a sense of conscience. This business has a beautiful spot in my heart because not only are chasing their own dreams, but helping to build brighter futures for those around them.

TinkeredBy are your go-to for quality handmade homewares and jewellery. There is nothing matchy-matchy and you know that wearing one of the TinkeredBy creations you are one of a kind.

My very favourite part about Tinkerked By is that I can read the actual real life story of the artist who created my purchase. That is incredibly special to know the story behind the art or jewellery that is going to come into my home. 2collageblog

 

Tinkerked By really is creating products that better the world and using business to inspire change.

You can purchased directly from their website, or alternatively you could host your very own Trunk Show.

{Christmas Prizeapolooza 2016} Give a little bit of Glitz this year

This product is the EXACT reason I started this blog, it’s local, it’s brilliant and I didn’t know it existed until now.

Little Glitz by Amanda is located in Blayney and she offers custom cross stitch portraits, wall hangings and letters. 15354316_1799094906975396_1227810246_o

Amanda has been cross-stitching since she was young and it was a skill taught to her by her mother. How fantastic is that?

This is honestly the best product I have seen in a long time, what a brilliant way to capture your family and what a fabulous gift this would make. You could buy it as a wedding gift  and then buy another one with the couple and added children later! I love this idea! Imagine a whole couple’s history celebrated by cross stitch.

15369764_1799094900308730_1065838680_o

Little Glitz by Amanda offers simply stunning items and I hope in the not to distant future to have one of her beautiful creations hanging in my home.

{Christmas Prizeapolooza 2016} JasitUp this Christmas
