Can't you just almost feel the velvet of this luscious Roman blind? Trying to put a colour to this one... we think it must be Golden Mole. The mole itself is a velvety little creature. Or perhaps it's a Toffee Latté? They can be fairly velvety too... Maybe it depends how you're feeling. Need blinds?

The beauty about vertical blinds is that you can creatively introduce a mixture of colours to give a more vibrant effect. These blinds were fitted in a #school bringing a smart yet fun look to their open #learning area. #blinds #everywindowneedsablind #facilitiesmanagement #education

To continue the umbrella theme this month we thought we'd look at the umbrella meaning and umbrella names! Umbrella meaning: 'an object with a round folding frame of long, straight pieces of metal covered with material, that you use to protect yourself from the rain or from hot sun' We've found some very random names that we didn't know existed: Brolly Parasol Gamp Bumbershoot Sunshade Parapluie Rainshade Can you add to the list? We'd be so interested to know - please comment

So, we did a bit of research into what umbrellas have been used for over the years, and we found some interesting ideas. 1. One thing that did interest me is the use of the umbrella in children's books... why, I wonder? Winnie the Pooh, Mary Poppins, Dr Seuss, Amelia-Ann & the Green Umbrella, Peter Rabbit, The Green Umbrella, Rupert & the Sage of Um... the list goes on! Interesting observation - can anyone throw any light on that one? 2. Historically, or course, the umbrella

The name ‘umbrella’ comes from the Latin word ‘umbra’ which means shade or shadow, which means that umbrellas are in fact not only associated with rain, but also sunlight and the shadows the sun creates. The umbrella has been around for almost 4000 years, first discovered in the historical Mesopotamia region in Western Asia. In those distant times, the sun was more problematic than the rain, and the mighty parasol emerged as a solution to this. These emergent umbrellas were f

What's your favourite? ✔ Tangy Pickle & Wensleydale ✔ Caramelised Red Onion ✔ Spiced Tomato, Onion & Feta

So, today is Dr Seuss Day 😀 and who doesn't enjoy a bit of Dr Seuss? We know we're beginning to see the end of lockdown but this quote from Dr Seuss seemed very appropriate! Please decide where you go responsibly today - we'll all come through this pandemic together! #covidsolutions #drseuss

This week is Children's Mental Health Week. The exceptional circumstances we find ourselves in at the moment really enhance the need for us to be mindful of our children and ensure we are aware of signs when things are getting too much for them. The #NHS have provided some very useful information to help us support our children - https://www.nhs.uk/oneyou/every-mind-matters/childrens-mental-health/ We think heaps of our mums doing homeschooling day in, day out, but you're all

We thought we'd take a look into the history of Lego and we found that it's been built on determination despite various crises being thrown at it. This tells its own tale and should encourage all of us to persevere in the times of adversity that we find ourselves in right now. Lego has long been associated with #education and is indeed pivotal in the development of children where there may be learning difficulties. So, get out your Lego bricks students! We challenge you to tu

And who doesn't love a bit of chocolate cake.
