Who Rules @ Home?

Parenting is said to be one of the hardest "job" there is, and im sure a lot of you would agree on that. Challenging at times, but oh so amazing!

So, its time for another Sharing is Caring! Last time you all shared Advice to Expectant mothers, now its time to share the rules @ home!

Mum-to-mum Advice

First time mum? Here you'll find some advice from mothers to expectant mothers...  We asked our network of Sale Fairy mums and got some great advice that we'd like to share with you.

Cute Easter Origami

Happy Easter everyone! Well here’s something pretty cute that you can either make yourself or do with your children this Easter.

Cute Drawstring Tote Bags

My friend was travelling to Europe for a holiday recently with her two young boys. I thought I'd make them a cute tote bag each and fill them with some goodies for the long haul trip. Apparently they were an absolute hit!

Baby Shower Cupcakes

I needed a cute baby shower idea and found this fun way to package those baby essentials and make some cupcakes!

Make your own soy scented tea cup candles

Got any bone china tea cups your nana left you? Well give them a new lease on life and purchase a scented soy candle making kit from Trio Soy Candles. Turn your tea cups into gorgeous candles with their easy-to use candle making kit.

Pom Pom Flowers

Well our first wee baby will be arriving into this world in a couple of months, so it’s time to get the nursery ready.  I have seen some cute pom pom flowers on the internet before when searching for crafts and decided to make an arrangement for our little ladies room.

DIY Toilet Sign

Well this is a bit of an easy one, but looks pretty cool! All you need is to grab yourself an old scrabble set (the one with the wooden tiles and tile holders) and some pva glue. I wanted to make a sign for our toilet door, but you could make a sign for the bathroom, laundry or even your kids room – whatever you desire!

Getting crafty with gift wrapping

Are you tired of spending too much money on gift wrap for birthday parties, Christmas and other special occasions? Well, here is a great solution to that.

How about decorating some plain paper with stamps and while you are at it make a card as well.

Getting organised with blackboard paint!

I’m forever trying to find bills that need to be paid or something that has arrived in the mail that I needed to sort.. it was definitely time to get myself organised!

Time to get festive!

It was about time to get festive in our household and I thought that I should go about putting the Christmas tree up over the weekend. I am a bit sick of all our decorations from the last few years, so decided to start making my own.

Magnets & Pegs

Who would have thought that such a combination would turn out like this? These cute magnets can be used to peg your shopping lists, kids artwork, photos and other bits and pieces to your fridge. They are oh so simple to make and look very stylish! Your friends will be putting in their orders for you to make some for them.

Light up your life with recycling

Make these super cute candle holders with some recycled tin cans.

They look great and could even be a gift for a friend wrapped in cellophane and some twine or funky ribbon.

Photoshoot with
Emily Raftery

During Shelley's pregnancy she did
two photo-shoots with the talented
Emily Raftery.

Here's a few of the photos from the second shoot!

Easter Treasure Hunt

Here at The Sale Fairy we love Easter and all the chocolate eating that is involved. We remember as kids our parents organising Easter treasure hunts with the neighbourhood children.

Helping your kids put their best foot forward

During a lifetime, your child’s feet will take around 216 million steps – that’s like walking around the world more than four times. When your baby starts walking, their little feet will take 176 steps per minute!

Dress ups and Costumes for kids

Kids love to play make believe and use their imaginations, think creatively and role play.  Playing with dress ups and costumes needs to be encouraged with children to not only be a super fun activity, but also an important one to help them build their confidence and vocabulary.

Name The Baby!

The search is over! As Shelley went through her second pregnancy, we asked all of our lovely Mums for advice on names they loved.

Have a look and maybe you'll find a name that you like.

Another Fairy on its way!

Follow Shelley's second pregnancy and read her every day from start to giving birth to little Harry.
