Handmade Heaven: Organisers

How to be organised, despite the baby brain

We all know that ‘baby brain’ is real, despite often being bandied around as a joke. So making notes becomes a daily undertaking for most of us once we’ve had children: starting first with feeding cycles, then journal notes about first words and first steps, then diarising our week’s kindy times, play dates, or ‘work’ days. Why not make your notebooks something to treasure and keep with these gorgeous handmade journals and notebooks:

1. 12 Month Planner Set, by Baka Design: a gorgeous gift for a baby shower for a mum to be.
2. A rebound Journal, by Ruby in the Dust: featuring an original ‘Golden Book’ interspersed between the pages.
3. Love What you Do Notebook, by Honey Design: reminds us to cherish our children’s early days.
4. Customised Notebook, also by Baka Design: you can specify up to 5 words on a cover for a truly personal gift – for example ‘My first years with Ellie’.
