Disclosure: I downloaded a copy of this book for free on NetGalley in return for writing an honest review on my blog.

If you haven’t already seen it, I posted a spring in the garden blog post just over a month ago, you can find that here – Spring Flowers In The Garden 2019, since then more plants have come out in flower so I thought I’d do another post – a part 2, this one with more of a wildlife theme to it too.

This house features items from the recent Grand Garages Live Event, once again there were some brilliant items in this event.

The Other Side To Positivity (Mental Health)
I’ve always found my online life to be a place for positivity, but in real life, not everything is always positive and today’s post is going to be me letting you into what real life can be like sometimes, from my perspective… a sort of, facts about me style post, a Mental Health style post so if you are triggered by reading about any sort of mental health issues then maybe skip this one?
