A little Kikki K haul!


So these planners are part of my first and second order from Kikki K!
I took advantage of the sale and bought the medium yellow, medium teal and large ocean. I am so pleased you can buy from a UK site now because I absolutely love the quality and layout of the Kikki K's.

This is the medium yellow. I haven't really touched this one yet, just added my matching post-it charms from Kawaii Studios which go perfectly with it! I'm thinking this will be my summer planner but who knows!



The teal is the one I have moved into as my day to day planner. I will be doing an in depth post about this one soon. I love the elastic closure, it's much stronger than I thought it would be so I'm not worried about it stretching or anything, not for a long time at least!


And finally this is the large ocean. I'm using this as my blog and scribbles planner! It looks amazing!


I also bought a new gel pen and a 'lovely things inside' bag but forgot to photograph them!

So impressed with the quality of these planners and the rings are excellent, they're all nice and tight which makes a change for me as I usually get pretty sub standard rings on the planners I buy. So I am a very happy bunny!

Carpe Diem planner

My boyfriend bought me the aqua Carpe Diem planner by Simple Stories for Christmas, as well as a few extras.
I thought I'd give a quick overview of how I have it set up at the moment. 

I love this planner! I think as a first planner, Simple Stories have done an excellent job. Fingers crossed they come out with personal sized ones next!
 It has a lovely feel to it and it's very pretty, I especially love the polka dot interior.



The sticky note page marker and one of the planner wallets in use!



A Filofax pouch holding some DIY Project Life cards.


I keep my stickers in the Simple Stories zipped planner pouch.




January as it currently stands.


I haven't filled this in yet but I love this page you get with each month.


The current week.



My February spread which I love!


The pockets are my favourite thing.


I apologise for the bad lighting, I wanted to get a post up but had to contend with strange little lamps!

November Brimbles Box


My Brimbles Box for November arrived today!
Missing from these first 'group' photos is the santa charm which was hiding in the paper, I nearly missed it completely!
But my favourite thing out of the box is the CraftinChaos paperclip, I loved the Halloween one from last months box so I'm so happy I have another one which will be perfect for the rest of the year.

Contents -

Elf dashboard
Bunny paper clip
EllieBeth Designs UK stickers
Two washi tapes
Elf to do list pad
Santa sticky notes
Santa planner charm



I LOVE the Santa charm but unfortunately the clasp wasn't long enough to keep the jump ring on. If that makes sense! I think it may have snapped a bit. Luckily I make jewellery and charms myself so had the tools to correct it straight away and he is now swinging happily from the bottom of my planner.


The bunny paper clip is looking adorable in my planner!


Overall I am very happy with the contents, I really love the Santa sticky notes, some awesome artwork.
I can't wait for the next box!

Lucky bag from LittleNoahsArk


Wow. For £5 you get so much! I was so impressed!
There is also a surprise bundle for £9 and a surprise bag/box for £10, which I think I need to buy.. but I might get told off hehe. 

The contents - 
4m roll of panda washi tape
Gel pen
Sheep sticky notes
Sticker sheets
2 paper clips
Bunny page flags

All of the items are excellent quality and I think the lucky bags are excellent value for money.
I will definitely be buying another one soon. I think they would make adorable presents for stationary fans too!

Cloudy Cow order!


How cute was the packaging for this order!? Adorable.
I saw that Cloudy Cow was stocking these super cute bunny stickers so decided to go all out and buy more washi, sticky notes and another pen too.. Oops!

The stickers are so cool! You get a lot in the box, I think it's either 30 or 50 but I'm not too sure. The designs are so sweet.
The sticky notes are just awesome, I already have the bunny ones and love the quality of those so thought I'd get some piggy ones too.
The washi tapes are excellent quality as usual, I have owls on a line, black hearts, colourful bunting and some weather washi which I thought was really cool.
The pen is longer than I imagined but it's so nice to write with, it kind of feels like writing with a quill!

SeaSalt&Paper order!


How adorable is this paper clip..!?
I saw it on her Etsy shop and fell in love, I needed it!
I haven't got a photo of the back but this bunny has a fluffy tail, such a cute addition.
Such good quality too, so impressed with it.


The tassel is just amazing, it's huge and looks so cute with my planner. If I got out with this planner I do take it off as I'm worried it might get dirty but it looks lovely by sitting pretty in the house.


I'm currently doing a 'no spend' month which is proving difficult as SeaSalt&Paper keeps popping up in my Etsy feed and it's sooooo tempting!
