Fluffy Bums Annonymous


During my pregnancy with Squish, I joined a little community primarily based on Facebook. The group is formed of the loveliest bunch of girls I have ever had the pleasure of speaking to and we all have an addiction in common.

Fluff

Or to those not in the know, cloth nappies.

I never knew that some fabric that is placed on the bum of a baby could provide so much joy!
The main reason behind looking into fluff was purely for waste reduction purposes. Living in an apartment, I just didn't like the idea of nappies sat in the bin (the nappy bin was useless the first time around) and we don't have a great storage area for rubbish outside either.
(Obviously environmental issues were considered but I am not here to preach what is best for who)

Now Squish is 8 months old and I love our fluff more than ever. More than anything they make for some of the cutest photos. Cant say any disposable looks like this in a photo!










Ok, ok so this one was added purely for the cuteness factor but you can see the nappy peeking out in the corner!

As you can see they come in so many colours and prints. Tots bots do some of the prettiest fluff around, we had some of their story prints going back and as you can see they are just lush!



In the last couple of days I have brought a couple of nappies, one is the Limited Edition Tots Bots Gingerbread nappy and the other from the new Frugi release in Orchard.

Tots Bots - Gingerbread



Frugi - Orchard

From what I am aware, Gingerbread is more or less sold out. I brought via the Tots Bots site and they have most definitely sold out there.
As for the Frugi print, If you enter "JOLLY" at checkout you will receive a 20% discount. This discount was passed to me by a fellow fluff mummy, so I'm unsure as to how long it is running for.

You're likely to see a fair amount of OTB (On The Bum) pictures here and over on our instagram. If you have any questions about fluff let me know and maybe sometime in the future I can do a little Q&A on them. I'm by no means an expert but it may be helpful to some.

So keep an eye out, I'll be adding photos of the new fluff soon!

Watch this Space!

Last blog for the night....just a small announcement....

We will be taking a look at a few beauty products samples we have received recently and reviewing them here....Hoggle is the beauty expert, particularly make-up, though Mimi is a little partial to moisturising and perfume.

We have had a little shopping spree via Next, Primark and even a few bargains from eBay so hope you will find are views on fashion useful....as you can imagine out tastes will vary; there is a 19 year age gap in our taste, though you wont find a pinny or slippers (unless they're the cute furry type) in our purchases! Also in our boofiloo haul we have some munchkin bits for your little prince or princess and maybe even some worthy comments from our munchkins on their fave items.

As you are all (hopefully)  aware Christmas is making its sparkly presence known (shhhh don't mention sparkly to Mimi, she just lurves a bit of sparkle).  So we will have a few pressies for the munchkins and will show you our boofiloo haul of these, if you  promise not to spill the beans to them ....remember Santa's the word!

Mimi has some good tips to hand out on Christmas shopping and what to buy the most awkward of rellies, whilst Hoggle can give you some hints and ideas for the Christmas outfit to knock em dead...well not quite dead but leaving people in know doubt that you are the mistress of the Christmas fashion fest!

Finally we will try to pop in a few more pic's of the boofiloo mummies and munchkins and if you have a question or two please comment below.

A few features to look out for:
Best buy of the month: Each of us and the munchkins will decide what is our fave buy and why
Both boofiloo mummies love to read so there will be a few book reviews and even the odd movie we like
Hoggle is quite creative and so may have an idea or two to share
Mimi is doing a creative writing course so will update you on how she is doing and when the first best seller will be on the shelves
Munchkin moments.....these will be those little gems that either make you laugh or run in embarrassment
Plenty of pics and a weekly video
Crafty ideas for the kids on pintrest....results of these will be posted for your comments

Well the sheep are waiting patiently at the gate...counting time begins shortly.

So good night all you boofiloo people...pleasant dreams.
