My favourite finds: Søstrene Grene (and a new year giveaway)

December 13, 2017 The Ordinary Lovely
My favourite finds: Søstrene Grene

I first became aware of Danish brand, Søstrene Grene, a couple of years ago when a friend shared some gorgeous trinkets she'd bought. The speed at which I hopped online to see if I could find them was breakneck. But, oh no! You can only buy Søstrene Grene's lovely products - homeware, stationery, craft supplies, small toys - online. The crushing disappointment!

Do you remember me?

A snack for Santa ... salted caramel fudge and peanut bites

November 29, 2017 The Ordinary Lovely
Salted caramel fudge and peanut bites

I hate to be the one to break the news to you but the mince pies ... the ones you leave lovingly alongside a carrot for Rudolf and maybe a glass of milk and something a little stronger ... well, Father Christmas? He's not all that fussed about them anymore.

Seriously. I kid you not.

In fact, I'd go as far as to say that he's a bit sick of them.

Welcome to The Ordinary Lovely, an award winning blog about family life and interiors. I'm Rachel, a sweet toothed mama to two cheeky boys, with an addiction to stripes, sour sweets and leather satchels. I also tend to wear more blusher than is strictly necessary.

Lunch outside, today! Hooray for sunshine and sandals 👍🏻
Putting the little one to work. And no, if he doesn’t have to wear proper clothes, then he doesn’t. Never willingly out of pyjamas since 2012 ;)
With the promise of sunshine, I’m hoping to transform the patio in to a vision of spring-like loveliness over the weekend. Because spring is still happening, right?! 🤔
Happy new rug day to me!! I love it so much that I’m able to temporarily ignore the magnolia walls and dodgy curtains.
It’s back to school for my two today and back to work-ish for me ... I have a million errands to run and a billion loads of washing to do ... but aren’t those what Mondays are for?! Have a fantastic start to the week x
The pizza oven AND the bikes are out. It is most definitely spring, today. I haven’t given up my coat and scarf just yet, though. Give me another month and my blood may have warmed up enough for me to go jacket-free ;)
