About Me

Welcome!
My name is Beth, wife to a kind quirky man, mum to a spirited little lady Delphie, daughter and sister to a wonderful family, and friend to some of life's good 'uns.




I live in Wales with my family. I work in the Third Sector 9-5 and run my jewellery and home decor business, Sass + Kitsch around work and life!

Creativity is my soul food. I basically like all the things: interior design, photography, painting, fibre craft (knitting, weaving etc), baking, writing, singing, the list goes on! We love to throw a party and get dressed up in fancy dress. I'm an outdoor fantasist which means I love the outdoors but for some unknown reason I don't make the most of it.

My dream is to one day live by the sea with four children and a few cats. I would love a job working from home using one of more of my creative endeavours and then have time in the evenings for socialising or Netflix. At the moment Netflix seems to take priority and I guess that's what they call being stuck in a rut!

That's me!

182 days from now

January 1st 2015 I decided to try for a year with no alcohol.  The decision was finalised during New Years Day dinner when the wine was being poured and I was asked if I wanted some. "I'd better not; I think I'm gonna try for a year without drinking," I said. Little did I know this was one of the most timely decisions I would ever make,  as within two weeks I fell pregnant... That's right, an actual human will be launched into my care in 6 months time . I know that for some, announcements of this kind are met with feelings that go something like: "congrats and all, but you know, you ain't the first and you certainly won't be the last", or "dear god I hope you don't become one of those women who go on to define themselves by their spawn", or "make one smug comment about the wonder of parenting and childbirth and I will jab my fork in my eye" etc etc. And I understand that. I have been on the receiving end

Pregnancy must-have's

I was very lucky to have had a fairly easy pregnancy, I know so many mothers-to-be struggle with pregnancy conditions and symptoms that they have no control over and can't do anything about. Hats off to them because, well, they are warriors! Even though my pregnancy was straight forward, here are some things that made it that little bit easier and I cheer about them having been invented...

It's a girl!

It happened!  At 11:35 on Sunday 11th October 2015 Delphie November took her first breath and my heart exploded.  It was such a shock to hear my husband announce we had a girl that it took me a few minutes to believe it.  She had a head full of dark hair and her eyes were pools of ink that stared up at me. She was a stranger in so many ways yet when she looked at me I already felt as if we knew each other.
