Lovely Linen from Parachute

There is nothing I like better on a cold winter evening than to snuggle up in bed on nice clean sheets. Walking into my bedroom and knowing that I have crisp, clean sheets waiting for me makes me want to go to bed early!



Linen is a great way to express creativity as well as tie in your bedroom look- whether it be modern, vintage, colourful or a plethora of patterns. I love interchanging my linen colours to give my bedroom a new look, and I love mixing and matching textures and colours.

One of my favourite looks is a white duvet cover paired with simple white sheets. It always feels so inviting, and white works well in both winter and summer. It is such a classic combination that will never go out of style.



Parachute Linen has been inspired by their Venice Beach surroundings to create a linen range of classic white items, with a grey Fog colour to complement the range.Their linen is available here in New Zealand but also worldwide, so it is perfect for a gift if you need something for a friend or family member overseas.



The thing I love, and why I am sharing this information with you today, is that Parachute has partnered with Nothing But Nets, an organization that provides safe sleep to those in need. For every Venice set sold (which will be available in White Linen), Parachute has committed to sending one life-saving bed net. This is a perfect excuse to get some new bedding and help someone at the same time! So far, parachute Linen have donated over 3,900 nets to help prevent malaria.

Buying bedding you love shouldn't be a hassle or out of reach. When you shop online with Parachute Linen, you simply select your preferred fabric, colour and style, and receive it delivered to your door. You will also be helping those less fortunate by updating your bedroom linen!

How to make your day smell amazing!

My sister in law is one of the first in New Zealand to be a Scentsy Consultant. Scentsy is a range of scented products that can make your whole day smell wonderful!

I get up in the morning and put on my warmer- which scent will I choose today? The warming aroma of Mochadoodle is enough to get my caffeine fix, but I also really enjoy BannnaBerry, Welcome Home and Camu Camu depending on what mood I am in. With 80 scents to choose from, every day can be different. Here I am getting my BananaBerry ready to go.



As you can see, I already have a few scents to try out.



Each bar has blocks of wax to break off and place in the warmer, where they slowly release a delicious fragrance. The thing I like best about these is that they only warm to about 38 degrees C, so prying toddler fingers are safe even if they do touch the wax. Because it is such a low temperature, only the fragrance is released and no nasty chemicals or pollutants.

I love this warmer as it goes very well with my kitchen, and there is a wide range of design options for every taste.



The washing also smells amazing when I use my White Tea and Cactus dryer disks in with the towels.

My boys now always want to wash their hands with their Sugar Cookie Hand Soap, and I have the White Tea and Cactus version in my kitchen.



There are also a wide range of other options such as Scent Circles for your car or small areas, hand creams, and even fragrance soft toys!

This month, there is also a special offer, which you can order here.

NB: I am not compensated for this post- I just wanted to share these wonderful products.
