Review | Family Photo Session With Ewa Jones Photography

Posted on July 22, 2020November 20, 2024 by Emma Reed

*Gifted Session

Getting the perfect family photo can be tricky, can’t it? In fact, we have so very few of all us together that when I was trying to find some for photo frames, I spent ages scrolling through my laptop and could only find one. Yes, we have lots of funny selfies but I want to be able to look back at all of us as a family and have fond memories of us having fun together. We haven’t ever had a family photo session, not a maternity one, not a newborn one, and each time I looked around for some I was always put off by the staged images in a white studio– that just isn’t us.

Hippynut Reusable Nappy Review

Posted on July 17, 2020November 20, 2024 by Emma Reed

*Gifted Product

We made the switch to cloth nappies over 2 years ago now and I will still say that it was the best eco-friendly decision we have made to date. I am so happy that we have been using cloth full time since William was 6 months old and have completely moved away from disposables– I just wish I’d known about them with my first! Over the last couple of years, we have come to use a range of different nappy types and brands so when a brand new company comes to the table it is always an exciting time. It really does show that the reusable nappy industry is growing and that more and more parents are eager to become more eco-friendly. Hippynut is one such new company and when they asked me to review their brand new all in one nappy I was over the moon (what cloth nappy mum doesn’t like trying new nappies, eh?!)

What Sustainable Fashion Looks Like To Me

Posted on July 14, 2020November 20, 2024 by Emma Reed

What does sustainable fashion look like to me? ⁣
I’ve wanted to touch on this for a while now for a few reasons:

1) because I am certainly not perfect in this department and I want to show that

2) sustainable clothing can be expensive

How To Make A Natural Homemade Surface Cleaner

Posted on July 2, 2020March 3, 2025 by Emma Reed

When I began my eco journey I knew I wanted to make a difference wherever and however I could. It started quite small but has since blossomed into a big project which provides me with lots of fun challenges. Plastic waste and chemicals are 2 areas that I have focussed on quite a lot and when I was looking under my kitchen sink I was astonished by how I had been reeled in without a second thought. We are all ‘sold’ these products as making our lives easier, being the best at cleaning, the best price, the must-have to keep your home clean but in actual fact, it’s not true at all.

Leave Only Your Footprints: Must-Have Reusables For The Beach

Posted on June 28, 2020July 10, 2025 by Emma Reed

We all love to enjoy a day out at the beach, don’t we? But it is incredibly sad and infuriating when images of litter-strewn beaches fill the news after a hot summer’s day. There really is no excuse. Every beach will have a bin somewhere, most beaches also provide toilet facilities and there are often cafes who could provide you with a bin liner if you forget your own. The trouble is, a lot of people just don’t seem to care. They seem to think that it’s somebody else’s job to clean up after them, that this will happen before the tide takes the litter and that they can just simply walk away from it all. This is NOT the case. If you visit a place like the beach, the only person responsible for your mess is YOU. If you are leaving litter on the beach but shocked by images such as The Great Pacific Garbage Patch then you have your priorities all wrong. The damage us humans cause is clear to see and the saddest part is that if we all just cared a little more, we could make a huge difference. “Leave only your footprints” has become a popular quote but how many of you can hand on heart say that this is true of your actions? I get it, the day at the beach can be busy and hectic, kids grab snacks and run off, items get blown away, the tide sneaks up on you and takes some rubbish, you don’t have time to do one final sweep at the end because you are in a rush… These are all things that do happen but also all things that can be easily avoided. Here are my must-have reusables for the beach which will help you to leave no trace behind.

Tips for Shopping for Ethical, Sustainable & Eco-Friendly Jewellery

Posted on June 26, 2020May 13, 2025 by Emma Reed

*Collaborative Post

We are all witnessing the negative effects our actions have on our planet and the environment in general. But we can also all give our contribution, by taking care of what kind of food we produce and eat, what we wear and how conscientious we are about this. So, if you are against wearing fur, and you tend to buy clothes made of recycled, natural materials, choosing jewellery shouldn’t be different. Here are some things to bear in mind if you want to get some eco-friendly jewellery.
