This day I love.......

In the past week alone I have taken hundreds of photos. Most of them are of little man and the girls and whilst I tend to only share a select few on social media, I do treasure each and every one. Recently I was looking through a memory card that I had filled, and simply could not believe how much my children have changed. The most obvious changes are of little man as he changes from a newborn into a little boy.


I have my favourite images of them and each month I try to take a photo of the three of them together, to record that bond that is developing and changing over time. The first image I took of the three of them is the one I used to announce his arrival,and possibly one of my favourites.


At 7 weeks old all three of my children have had their photos taken by a good friend of mine, Jemma Lambert, and her photography is proudly displayed on my walls. When contacted by transform a wall, it was one of her images I chose to be made into a wall mural


I was unaware of what the package was when it arrived. Two parcels, a tube and a box, one containing the metal frame edges and the other the image. The frame requires assembly to be put together but the instructions are clear and simple to follow. The image is printed onto a canvas, which when the girls saw it thought it was a flag. The canvas is then stretched around the frame to form the finished mural.


The finish on the print is of a high quality and I do keep stopping and simply looking at the finished product. The faces of my children and the capture of that particular moment in time it always brings a smile to my face. The mural really has transformed a wall, from something we simply passed by to a place to pause and reflect, a place that makes us smile every time we walk past it.


Thanks you Transform a wall for sending the canvas for review, all words are my own opinion

There is always someone in every family with whom everyone struggles to buy a gift for.  I know who it is in ours.  With that in mind I have had my thinking hat on recently, about what to buy them, and one of the ideas I came up with is a a way to display memories.

This may sound a little random but I love personalised gifts and it is often that we have many memories stored away in boxes or just away until we get around to doing something with them.  These memories can take the shape of anything from a ticket to a photo.

Clipline Displays

I really love the look of clipline or clothesline displays at the moment.  I like the way you can tailor what each item is without been too specific on size.  Clipline boxes are something I am looking at for Thing 3 bedroom.  I am planning on using it for scan photos, hospital tag and first hat/shoes


Alternatively there are clipline/clothes line style photo frames.  I think this is a great way of creating a bespoke gift for someone.  You could have it display tickets from a first date, or a recent event.  Mix and match photos in there and the great thing is you can use photos of differing sizes.


Photo Frames

Photo Frames are a great way to display memories as often we have them all stored on our phones or on memory cards.  It can be a great gift and one with a real personalised touch.  There are also frames to suit every taste from the more traditional to really modern ideas.


Display cases

Display cases offer a great range of versatility to them.  You can choose to fill all sections or leave some blank.  You can often fill them with more 3D items such as a cork from a first bottle of champagne and combine it with photos and other memorabilia.  



Each of these items can be tailored to suit an individuals taste and therefore create a truly bespoke gift.
