Happy Wednesday everyone 🙌🏻 I’m sure I’ve mentioned it before, but the 90% of the things I make are because I like them or because I am inspired by a friend or family member and want to make something that matches totally with what they like.

So this time I made these metal pin badges (I love all pin badges ☺️) thinking of a friend who loves gardening and that is her place to find balance, focus and bring a lot of happiness to her days. She loves to go to plants and gardening shows, so the last time she told me she was going to one of these shows I told her “Oohh! Cool, you are going to meet your garden gangsters, do you have your shovel ready?” 🤣🤣 and she just laughed so much that I chose to make this design.

It’s also available in keyrings, tote bags and magnets that I will show you soon.

Are you a garden gangster or do you have some in your friends and family? 🪴🪏👩‍🌾👨‍🌾 I was part of that gang once, and I would love to do it again, but I don’t have enough time for it, so now I just have some nice wild flowers 🪻🌼

One of our favourite and most wanted weekend got to its end and now it’s time to wait 357 days to comeback to Download Festival

Every year is amazing, but I feel this year was above and beyond! Now it’s time to book some concerts for the bands that we just discovered, it is one of our favourite things about download, there is always so much new great talent.

Tuesday is always the hardest day for me, it’s not that easy for me to lower my levels of Dopamine, oxytocin, serotonin, adrenaline and all the other hormones that we release when we are having such an amazing time, so if anyone has an advice for me, please let me know 🙌🏻

In the meantime I will try to write a little to do list, so I can give some structure to my days, and I will leave here the most amazing moment for me during Linkin Park 🥹

This family is rocking this weekend at Download Festival🤘 and so far the weekend is going amazing!

I’ll read all messages on Monday, this year the internet connection here is minimal (I try to post this about 6h ago 🫠)

Have a great weekend everyone

These 5 star funny review cards are one of my favourite new collections, and they are all available on my website now 🙌🏻

These cards can be perfect for so many occasions like birthdays, anniversaries, end of year after your son or daughter finishes their GCSE exams or just because it’s the perfect moment to tell them how much you appreciate them in a very funny way ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Did you know I can also make a fully personalised one with the name, stars and review that you want on it?

Happy today!! I haven’t been active here the last week just because sometimes I feel like a hamster in a wheel that moves faster than what my little legs can handle 🫠 but here I am, leaving the gym and takin a photo that resume how I’ve been last week. But the important part is I AM HERE! These are the days that I choose to proof to my brain that we can do more and not die in the process 🤘

I’ve been making so many new products 🤩 and I hope to show you at least 2 of them this week… what new products you would like to see?

PD: I am so brave sharing this photo, but sometimes we struggle to put a smile on our faces, and that is ok! 🙌🏻

Hello everyone and happy Friday 🙌🏻

I have been taking advantage of this weather to take a lot of photos, so I can add my next load of products to my website, but I’m struggling with some of them, or maybe I am overthinking (not a surprise); so I would like your opinions please.

This is a real photo, not AI generated, it just has a few tweaks to balance the brightness, but I don’t like it, I feel it looks like a very fake photo 🫠 what do you think? Please be honest, the last thing that I want is customers finding my products and thinking that I am not genuine.

Are you looking for a funny card to celebrate the best dad ever? Well! I’ve got it for you 🙌🏻celebrate dad with a funny 5-star review card.

This card is A6 size (postcard size) and comes with a white envelope. The best of all is that if you don’t live in the same city as your dad, I can add a personalised message inside and send it directly to him 🙌🏻

I like to add a funny vibe to all the gifts I get for my friends and family. Are you like me, or do you prefer a more classic vibe?

If you want me to add some other items that can go perfectly through the letterbox, please contact me, I’ll prepare a lovely gift set for your dad 💝

Today has been a busy day here. I started taking photos and making some videos of different gift sets that I can do 🙂 Here is a sneak peek of a very special gift set, “it’s ok to overthink” 🙌🏻🤣

I am a professional overthinker and I worry about everything that hasn’t happened and maybe never will… but one of my ways to deal with my “demons” is laughing at them, not hiding them, and most importantly, not feeling ashamed of it.

First I came up with the idea of the “let me overthink” metal pin because a lot of people used to tell me at work “don’t think so much!”, and my sarcastic response was making a metal pin for my lanyard 🤣🤣 Then I decided to make the magnet and the keyring because I know not everyone uses pins. The other element of this set is the “jar of worries” notepad, and this too is inspired by myself; when overthinking starts to make me feel overwhelmed, nothing beats starting to write and emptying out all my worries. Sometimes, because I feel a bit witchy too, I burn the sheet and let the worries go away 🔥

So if you have a friend, partner, colleague, or family member who is like me and likes to have a good laugh about being an overthinker, this is a lovely set that I can send directly to them with a card to remind them how proud you are of who they are 🙌🏻

You can also buy these items separately 😉 and here are some news for you that read all the post… Tomorrow I will launch my website 🥳🙌🏻

Small notepads and some magnets are ready 🙌🏻 I have to leave them overnight to make sure the glue seals properly.

Here I have 3 different designs for the small notepads because there are two more designs that I want to show you next week as part of a gift set. I also made a lot of the “let me overthink” magnet and the magnet with a design that I exclusively sell at Serendale with a painting of St. Mary Magdalene Church, a beautiful landmark of Newark on Trent 🤩

Can you see something that catches your eye? Do you like to use tear-off notepads?
