A self-confessed enthusiast of second-hand stores. Charity shops are my happy place! Whilst I aim to live a little more sustainably my basket is usually filled with bric-a-brac and books and toys for my children, specifically things you can no longer find on the high street! I’m also and keen crafter and enjoy anything from pottery painting to jewellery making!
