This month we are giving away an amazing playhouse to one lucky competition winner! Click here for all the details...
Primrose Cottage Playhouse
These gorgeous, embroidered, colourful creations are every child’s dream. They have all the ingredients necessary to fire the imagination and send little ones off to a far away land full of fairies, pirates and magical butterflies….
Beach House Playhouse
Such dreamy, imaginative play takes me right back to my own childhood. However, instead of a beautifully crafted, easy-to-assemble playhouse, we had to make-do ..
Are you looking to overhaul your child’s bedroom this summer? Why not add some colour to their furniture too?
At Little Lucy Willow, our children’s bedroom furniture collections are finished in a range of subtle pastel shades to suit any girl boy or teen.
From soft Angel White to bold Seaside Blue, our colours are warm, contemporary and fresh.
After your furniture has been handmade in the Little Lucy Willow factory, it undergoes a three-stage finishing process resulting in a hardwearing, durable semi-matt coat which can be wiped clean from all those sticky..
Trampoline parks seems to be ‘springing’ up everywhere (pardon the pun) and as a consequence, my heart is spending an awful lot of time in my mouth these days.
In my younger years there was no such thing of course. Jumping on mum and dad’s bed was the best we could muster, but blimey it was fun! Sneaking upstairs when no one was looking and bouncing til the bedding came off. We never did manage to put it back on properly. Sorry mum!
The adrenalin was matched by precisely nothing, probably because it was strictly forbidden.
Due to this ‘rule’ being ingrained in my h..
We love blaming our children for life’s little mishaps.
When we’re late: “My neighbours must think I’m nuts, all I’ve done is shout ‘brush your teeth’ for the past hour!”
When we lose the car keys: “I found them in the washing machine. Again.”
When we need some new shoes (children do come in handy sometimes): “The little blighter drew a smiley face on my favourite ballet pumps!”
Researchers have now discovered that we have a tendency to add our own sleep problems to that never ending list of blame - somewhat unfairly I might add.
In a recent study, 100 childr..
During the past few days we’ve had a taste of some lovely warm weather and what might be in store for the summer months (with any luck).
We’ve also been reminded what it’s like to feel the heat when we’re trying to get to sleep at night. And it’s not pretty...
With this in mind, now could be the right time to think about changing your child’s bedding before that mercury rises!
So pack away those winter duvets and create a cool and calming place for your little one to sleep.
New sheets always make bed an inviting place to be, which is exactly what we want our..
If your teen happens to be taking important exams this year, you’re no doubt bracing yourself for a difficult few weeks.
You might not be able to do their revision for your them, but you can make suggestions to ensure that exam time runs smoothly.
Amongst the parenting mantra routinely trotted out, a good night’s sleep should be at the top of your list. And that goes for your little ones too.
A recent study has revealed that if children get an extra 90 minutes of sleep during the week, their marks will improve. That’s just 18-19 minutes more rest from Sunday to Thursda..
Choosing children’s bedroom furniture is a huge decision, not least when you intend for it to last many years.
You need something timeless, solid and durable. Something that will still look fresh a decade from now.
Obviously, Little Lucy Willow children’s furniture fits comfortably into this bracket so you’re in safe hands with us…
So once you have finalised your decision on which of our exclusive collections to go for, what then? Well it gets a little easier, we promise. The next step is figuring out whether you require any matching pieces.
It’s ..
Sleep is something that many of us don’t have to work too hard at which is really convenient seeing as it’s critical to both our physical and mental health. How lovely it feels to crawl into bed after a long, exhausting day and drift off into the land of nod!
Imagine if eating a daily dose of raw sprouts, or running five miles a day was as crucial to our well being? We wouldn’t be quite so healthy I’m sure!
We realise how essential sleep really is when becoming first time parents...say no more.
Sleep deprivation is one of the most difficult things a family can face..
Many children are still off school but the holidays are over in our house. Thankfully.
Don’t get me wrong, I love spending time with my girls but there comes a point when I am reduced to little more then a prisoner in my own home. Anchored amongst the rapids with a ferocious tide of barefoot children racing past. Laughing, dancing and singing, leaving a trail of destruction - and sweet wrappers - behind them.
All I can do is wait for the boredom to set in, the giggles to subside and the kettle to boil (again) before their next game starts up with a flurry of excitement as I stare o..
The start of a new month means a brand new offer here at Little Lucy Willow...so during April only you will receive a FREE STANDARD TRUCKLE MATTRESS worth £135 when you buy a truckle bed. Now who could argue with that?
There is something marvellously magical about the truckle bed. Children are always drawn towards the display model in our showroom with a readiness to dive beneath the bright floral bedding and settle in for the night for a (sleepless) sleepover party. However, the fascination with these beds doesn't only apply to children. Mothers seem to warm to them too. Mayb..
