My new special piece of jewellery.

We paid a visit to The Lantern today. It's a special shop I have been taking my little girl to since I was expecting her.

She was in absolute awe today at the gem stones and rainbow makers. We decided to make our own necklaces!

My daughter chose a rose quartz. Rose quartz is said to promote unconditional love, compassion and healing. She can be quite an anxious child at times so this was the perfect choice for her. Something she feels will make her feel happier when she is uncertain. 

For me, she chose the Turquoise stone with black veins. The turquoise stone is said to protect and dispel negative energy . I thought for a five year old to want her mummy protected from bad things was so special!



Together we chose the Amethyst stone for my youngest daughter. It is said to promote calm, balance and peace. It is also said to eliminate impatience. She is a rather spirited child so this was a perfect choice for her.



It was a wonderful experience to give my daughter. She has been off from school for a couple of days and has missed her routine. We have done some alternative  home schooling in this time which she has simply loved.

Regardless of your thoughts with regards to the power of these stones, to my little girl - they mean everything. The stone necklace will hang above her bed whilst not being worn to protect her and remind her of our lovely morning together.

Rydale Clothing

If you follow my Instagram page, you will have seen we are acquiring an ever growing collection of these beautiful Rydale Fleeces and Gilets, 

We have most certainly turned to Rydale Clothing to kit us all out this winter. After falling in love with my boots and rugby shirts, we explored the rest of the range. The fleeces in particular are so warm with the rather chilly winter we have just experienced ! 

It is not often as family we find a collection that suits all of us but Rydale has definitely achieved this. In a practical sense, the clothing is warm, washes exceptionally well and dries quickly without losing its shape. In a style sense, its perfect. The fit is brilliant , the embroidered motifs and logos add a lovely finish to the garments without taking away from the quality of the product which so many designer brands do. 

I have been taking full advantage of the generous sales they have had, and certainly looking forward to kitting us out this Summer !
