Ethically produced sleepwear, loungewear & accessories for children & adults – The Bright Company SS19 Collection

Starting The Woodland Wife, I soon made connections with small independents who shared the same ethical standards and general ethos as me through Instagram. Watching these independents launch beautiful collections time after time continues to amaze me with their creativity, but nothing amazes more than seeing these independents continue to create thes[...]

Why I chose reusable cloth nappies and my experience with TotsBots Nappies

Our journey with cloth nappies started back in 2012 when we first found out I was expecting a baby; a couple who live a fairly frugal lifestyle and with both of us being self-employed we soon worked out the huge cost implication of disposable nappies. This along with our desire to cut down landfill where possible, there was a huge environmental factor[...]

How to Make Broken Pot Fairy Garden

How to Make Broken Pot Fairy Garden A few years ago we visited a local auction full of all sorts of interesting bits and pieces; one lot I came across had masses of fabulous terracotta pots and planters and being someone who prefers second hand to 'brand new', when it came to this tatty, shabby auction lot I simply couldn't pass it up. Spending just Â[...]

Sunflower sale in support of YoungMinds – Improving the mental health of children and young people

I have very recently touched on the emotional and mental well-being of our daughter in the post 'Supporting Learning at home' and how we as her parents see this element of our daughter's upbringing as one of the core areas we need to be truly mindful of. Our birdie is a sensitive soul and for the most part she is a sunny, kind, loving, naturally bub[...]

Supporting learning at home

With all the policies and procedures, friendship groups and general exhaustion that comes with school, we have noticed a shift in our daughter’s general demeanour since the new school year has begun. For the most part she loves school and despite what we see as some shockingly absent 'non-academic' timetabled subjects at this key stage of her educat[...]

With our daughter's 5th birthday looming our daughter asked for a 'Fairy' Party to celebrate with her friends.

A Woodland Vegetable Garden

When we first received planning to convert the woodland office into a dwelling, our home - it was September 2013, Autumn was setting in so our plans to start creating a garden were put on hold until the Spring. By Spring 2014 we had a 9 month old daughter and we were keen to create a space for her and us to enjoy. We set out to create a lawn, a spac[...]

A weekend wander in a blue haze of bluebells

Over the past few weeks we have been enjoying a daily assault on our senses here in the woods. Each morning as we opened our garden door, the scent of bluebells filled the air. A short wander into the woods and we were greeted by a magical sight: a carpet of blue, a haze of delicate flowers that stretched right out into the distance. There is nothi[...]

Celebrating the start of Spring – Fat Face Children’s Clothing SS18

Watching our daughter's love and connection to the environment that immediately surrounds us is something that gives us immense joy, so this time of year and the age she is now (coming on five) there is so much to learn, see and really take in.

When Thoughts turn to Spring – Thought Clothing – Ethical Clothing SS18

If we are to believe the weather forecast then the South East of England is in for another flurry, perhaps even a dumping of snow this week. My thoughts however, are turning to spring as I choose to look beyond what the forecasters say and take a look around the woods for signs that Spring IS on it's way. Although it is cold, it has been wonderfully[...]
