Not sure if these are for me or the kids!

Favourite Packaging

I am a real sucker for a matt finish when it comes to packaging especially if it is combined with striking typography! These are just a few food products I have been tempted by recently. Waitrose and Jamie Oliver's Recipease stores are two favourite haunts.

Riso Monte Bianco

I picked up this lovely packaging on holiday several years ago. I can't remember where! Maybe one of you will recognise it?!

Autumn Colours

I love this time of year.

Bag by Orla Kiely, Wellies by Hunter and Vintage Quality Street Tin from the brilliant Winter's Moon.

RED

If I HAD to choose a favourite colour I think it would have to be red. I think it really can cheer you up! These are just a few of the red things that live in our home.

M&S London Bus Tin

I couldn't resist buying this tin yesterday. All my favourites-gorgeous shade of red, retro illustration style, great characters and it's a London Bus!

Inspiration

Little Me Organics

I can't resist the graphic simplicity of the 'Little Me Organics' range of packaging. There isn't a Mummy Bubble Bath so I'm still buying Mum To Be!!

Inspiration

My Cup of Tea

I love the Clipper packaging range but I have to confess I have never actually tried the Nettle or Dandelion infusions! The Clipper Everyday Tea is however very good.
