Danny’s bedroom makeover with Okiddoky

Danny, my youngest boy, is almost two years old. And up until now I haven’t felt inspired  enough to create a cosy and dreamy bedroom for him. When you get to the point where you have three kids, somewhere along the line you lose interest in the little things that used to spark joy. I loved decorating Georgie’s bedroom when we first moved into our new home over 6 years ago- it was my favourite room in the house- and I put alot of effort into James’s bedroom when he came along but poor little Danny still had a banner with the name Georgie on his bedroom wall and a basket full of broken toys in the corner. Not anymore. With the help of a truly beautiful range of products from Okiddoky, I am happy to announce that my baby boy has his own beautiful and organised little corner.

Little Heroes Boutique: More than just a shopping experience

Ever since I discovered a world of beautifully curated local lifestyle shops for kids, now I rarely, if ever, shop on the high street or at the mall. Especially when it comes to birthdays and Christmases. I absolutely love the fact that now I can buy my kids clothes, toys and books without feeling bad about the lack of sustainability and quality. I can support local businesses, ones that are run by mamas and families and I am able to offer my boys some of the best choices available to parents. All this fits in perfectly with my recent kiddie shop discovery, the Little Heroes Boutique in Nicosia.

Yiassu – The Cypriot Amazon

Since I became a mother of three, I have learnt to appreciate online shopping more. Not the food shopping kind though. That’s s my cardio especially with the minimum of two kids in tow. It’s a great workout. I’m talking about all those little things that we need, things like household and hygiene stuff, that would require alot of effort and time planning, hopping from shop to shop with the kids. The type of stuff you might buy from Amazon or eBay. But since this is a pro-local and pro-small business blog I am happy to present Yiassu, a local business with an online platform that stocks all those little things you need.
