Fire ready pets

Written by

While the cool change has been making a sporadic appearance around the country, especially in Victoria, we’re not out of the fire danger period just yet, and teaching our children about the dangers of bush fire and being fire ready is still a top priority’.

Living in rural Victoria after growing up in Melbourne has really opened my eyes to the dangers of bush fire and my knowledge of what to do has grown from non [...]

Colour Catcher 1

Written by

This post is sponsored by Colour Catchers.

Those of you with a larger family would know what I mean when I say “The washing pile never ever ends”. In fact, I think that any size family creates a decent pile in the laundry but with 8 people to wash for, 6 being kids, you can imagine the state of Mount Washmore after I miss a day or two.

The people who make the COLOUR CATCHER sheets have been in touch [...]

Rustoleum Notice Board 3

Written by

In today’s blog post, I am going to share how I created a unique Notice Board and Pen Holder Set for my home office.

I really love the idea of recycling everyday items to create new and useful things around the house.

When I attended the mid-year Bloggers Brunch in 2012 the DIY craft freak inside of me just about did backflips as I approached the ‘Rust-Oleum’ stand.

There were spray paints, and chalk board paints and even a white board [...]

A PARENT’S ROOM REVIEW POST.

Just before Christmas 2012 I received an invitation from the folk at Highpoint Shopping Center in Maribyrnong Victoria, to check out and review their brand new Baby/Children/Parent’s Room.

Have you ever wondered what chaos actually goes on in our lives here at Chaos HQ? Here’s an insight into a busy day with 6 kids and a tired husband!

At 12.30am last night (well early this morning but you know what I mean), I chucked a wee little spaz at Monster Squad Dad.

Ahh the joys of the Christmas junk food overload.

It happens in most houses and by New Years, the sugar high is at a premium and our waistbands are usually tighter.

Thanks to Starmaid and the new Microwavable Superstar Popcorn Maker, snacking just got a whole lot more ‘guilt-free’.

This year I have discovered an alternative to the greasy buttery Microwavable popcorn that we usually snack on during MonsterSquad Movie Night, and since the school holiday’s are looming once again I [...]

Once a long time fan of in-store shopping, as Christmas approaches I am seeing the [...]

Fantasy Feet 1

Written by

Any parent of a food and drink consuming child will tell you that meals times can be a nightmare.

I know myself how full on, messy and stressful they can be.

If they’re not refusing to eat/drink it, they’re spilling it everywhere.

I mean it’s nothing to be alarmed about, all little people do it, but let’s be honest, if there is an easier way to do things then I am going to give it a whirl.

The best part about me [...]
