Personalised Picks From I Just Love It

My inner-child very much lives on the outer. You may have noticed by my un-dying love for Disney, Harry Potter obsession.... the amount of teddys I still own and keep on my bed that I still embrace all those  I love it.

I Just Love It is a site that I get lost in and their cute, kitsch bits, bobs and gift ideas always catch my eye!
I was recently sent a couple of bits from the brand and I have been really excited to share them on here for you all to see!
These two pieces may not interest you in the slightest and that is fair enough - sometimes I feel very different from the bloggers I read .... a little 'young minded' perhaps and I can imagine that a Disney doll is enough to make some of your eyes roll but I like it and that's what blogging is about - sharing you things you think and things you like, so ... yeah!
First up - the personalised Princess*. Belle has always been my favourite Disney princess and Beauty and The Beast my favourite Disney movie, obvs and how cute is this doll! 
The perfect present for any Disney-loving child (or adult!) - you can pick nearly any Princess and have a name embroidered onto the front of the dress!
Even my Mum loved this - it's so adorable.... plus it's great if you have more than one child wanting the same thing! 
The other item I was sent was the personalised version of The Wonderful Wizard Of Oz*. As you may have guessed by the name of my blog - I'm a bit of a huge a fan! 
These personalised books are such an amazing idea - especially, again, for children/families!
You can change any of the main characters name to anything you want - so obviously I changed Dorothy to Kirstie! Such a sweet idea - especially if the story has alot of meaning to yourself or whomever it may be for! There's loads to choose from including A Christmas Carol, The Wind In The Willows. Romeo & Juliet and Alice In Wonderland!

Make sure to head over IJLI and explore their never-ending gift ideas and homeware dreams!

IJustLoveIt Personalised Framed Playing Cards With Heart

Whether you are looking to treat yourself or after a gift for someone you love - IJustLoveIt literally has THE most amazing aray of unique personalised gifts, from personalised spoons to bottles of wine I could literally browse through the site for hours decking out my own home!

With Valentine's just around the corner I wanted to share with you this gorgeous piece below.

Made with individual cards sourced from a 1930s spelling game (how cool!) this A4 black wood box frame is a fabulous unique piece to add to any home.
Most of my decor at home is black and white so this fits in perfectly, I love the simplicity and sweet sentiment.

Obviously mine is J and K for me and Joey - but I think these would be lovely even with your own initials or parents initials!

I love pieces like this - totally stand-out and always a talking point - you may remember the IOW framed piece I have too (here), so many people from my home town total fell in love with that.

The service from IJLI is always amazing - so quick and packaged perfectly, I cannot recommend them enough.
Check out the whole range - here.

I Just Love It - Personalised Heart Map

Okay you may have already seen this across all of my social media channels but I just couldn't wait to show it to you all.
I am literally in love with this personalised picture, the way it has turned is amazing and I've been dying with excitement to get it up on here for you all to see!
 I Just Love It are a fun and unique site full of amazing and creative things for you to have personalised.
 From Santa sacks to spoons theor range really is a never-ending list of things that me go ooooo and ahhhh and 'oh blah blah would LOVE that!'

When the guys at IJLI asked if I would like to pick something to review I was over the moon and although it probably took me a good day to decide on just one product I think I made a fantastic choice with it.

This is the framed personalised heart map - a gorgeous and chic wall art print perfect for any home.


Each map is individually made based on an address of your choice. As you can see I gave my home address which is in Ryde on the Isle Of Wight and it has come out perfectly.
 At first I asked if it was possible to have Disneyworld but right now they are only doing address' from the UK (totally understandable).

The map has completely captured one of my favourite places in the world - I have lived here all my life and truly love it - it is home and probably the only place I will ever count as my home.

These framed pictures are such an incredible gift idea (especially with Christmas coming up!) A first home, an engagement, a wedding day - you can pick any UK address plus a short message to have alongside it - as you can see mine says 'Home Sweet Home'.

You get the choice of a white or mahogany frame and it measures approx. 24cmx24cm.
The pieces are priced at £49.99 - which you may think is a little expensive but you can pay upto £20 or so for a decent frame nowadays plus you can really tell how much time and effort has gone into it....so in my opinion it's worth every penny!
To find out more about the frames, to see different styles or to go and ahead and order on yourself head on over to their website - here!

The Perfect Notebook : Chroma Stationary

So whilst doing my usual internet browsing, blog reading and instagram stalking I stumbled across a brand which I fell completely and utterly in love with.
Being a blogger, writing down things is an everyday occurrence. I am constantly jotting down to-do lists and ideas for both my blog and my everyday life! 
I think all bloggers/bloggers can relate to this!
 I'm all about owning cute stationary and notebooks and I feel like with Chroma Stationary I've found a brand I can use over and over again! 

That's right, this brand is everything I have been looking for, a place to get a totally personalised but still gorgeously pretty notebook! 
You can pick the type of notebook, the colour of the notebook, either blank or lined pages PLUS you can have whatever you like embossed onto the front!

I had seen some gorgeous examples from other bloggers and was so super excited to be able to design my very own!

Because my blog logo is so light and doesn't have a lot of bold writing it was too difficult to get in embossed so I was left with a desicion which took me a long, long while..... What on earth do I want written on this thing!?! 

I spent a lot of time umming and arring over it (this was a tough choice for me I'm not going to lie..... #firstworldproblems) but i finally decided to go with a quote/lyrics from one of my favourite songs ever - Defying Gravity.
I think most of you know I'm a HUGE Wicked fan and I love this song and the meaning behind these words! 
Chroma Stationary Bound Notebook*

So this is the finished product - and I LOVE it, I did a little squeal of excitement when I opened it!
This is the bound notebook in the shade 'Elizabeth' with blank pages and gold embossing.

I didn't choose the font or placing of the writing but I think it is perfect! 
The notebook is slim and compact so it is perfect for popping into my everyday handbag which is great as it means I have have it wherever I go! 
I'm also thinking I might do some cute mood board type pages in there too - magazine clippings and a prit-stick is always fun - I love unleashing my creative side!
 I can see me ordering more and more of these - I have so many great embossing ideas, and they would make gorgeous personalised presents for friends and family! 

Thanks again to the lovely Gabi from Chroma Stationary who was fabulous from the very beginning of the process - I am overjoyed with the finished product!!
