Sponsored post: Kitty and Polly

Vintage screen-printed purse, made using organic Fair Trade cotton, £8, from Kitty and Polly.

I hate to nag but it’s Mother’s Day in the UK on March 22, so now is the time to make a considered purchase well in advance. Whatever you do, don’t leave it ‘til the last minute, or you’ll end up freaking out and buying a plastic-wrapped box of toiletries foulness.

I may be predictable but handmade is best, and Wee Birdy’s newest sponsor, Kitty and Polly, is just the (online) place to find the perfect gift.

Kitty and Polly specialise in gifts and accessories handmade in the UK, with a heavenly range of jewellery, bags, bath products and homewares. The prices are extremely reasonable, too. And they’ve just had a delivery of brand new products, just in time for Mother’s Day.

    I love the Terrier hottie! That’s a type of Terrier isn’t it?
