A Gift of Time This Valentine's Day - Wooden Watches

Time is precious gift and one that we will never have enough of.

When Sean and I moved in together last year we knew that making time to spend with each other wouldn't be easy due to our differing work schedules.  We make sure to plan evenings or days together when we know we will both be off work so we can make the most of our time together.

Valentine's Day is the perfect occasion to spend some extra special time together doing what you love! For us this year it means spending some time at home together just relaxing and spending time with our kitten Bella. 

When JORD reached out to me and offered to send me one of their gorgeous wooden watches to gift my loved one for Valentine's this year I jumped at the chance. 

Sean loves things made from wood, and we have a beautiful wooden clock that was his Granddad's on our fireplace, so I had no doubt that he would fall in love with a timepiece from JORD.

I picked out the Conway Watch in dark sandalwood and burgundy, I thought that the grain of this wood would match with so much and this watch (in fact all of JORD's pieces) are so unique and different to what you will find in any store. I'm sure any man in your life would love to be gifted one of these wood watches. 

All JORD wood watches are handcrafted with superior materials like the sapphire crystal glass face which is one the hardest and most scratch resistant materials on earth. 

If you think the watch is beautiful don't forget the stunning wooden box that it comes presented in, this is something I won't actually mind Sean having having on his side of the dresser haha! 

And if these watches aren't special enough as they are the you can have a personalised message engraved on the back plate of the watch or on the box. I loving giving personalised gifts so of course I opted for the engraving so Sean will always have a reminder of just how much he means to me. 

Seeing Sean's face when he opened his watch was the best gift for me, but I am super jealous that he has one of these beautiful wooden watches, I wouldn't mind us having his and hers ones because they have a women's collection too and I have my eye on the Cassia!

Talking Tables has been my go to for all my party accessories since I discovered them last year, so of course when I decided I would have an Easter Afternoon Tea Party they were my first stop! The Truly Bunny Range might just be my favourite collection they have made so far (although the Truly Flamingo Range is pretty amazing too). Nothing screams Spring more than some bunnies and florals, I wanted a Spring field filled with bunnies and eggs for my table theme and with all the goodies Talking Tables sent over I could create just want I wanted. 

Now I just need to bake some cakes to fill those stands in time for the weekend! I'll share more pictures with you all next week once the table is filled with yummy treats!   

Thank You to Talking Tables for collaborating with me on this post.

 I have a huge collection of jewels, I love adding some sparkle to any outfit from a simple tee and jeans to a LBD! So I was super excited when Victoria Emerson offered to send some wrap bracelets my way!

First off they arrived the next day after I placed my order, so there was no waiting involved at all! 

Each bracelet arrived in it's own drawstring bag and as soon as I opened them up I was drooling, I was so impressed with the quality.

I ordered from the UK site where prices range from £18-£39 and free shipping on all orders is included! The US site also ships worldwide so you can shop from anywhere and has a bigger selection with prices ranging from $19-$42 with Free Shipping on order over $50 and they even have a vegan friendly collection too. 

I picked out the Freshwater Pearls on Natural, Mother of Pearl & Turquoise and Blue Opal Borealis on Brown Leather. It's hard to choose a favourite from these, the pearls will go with just about everything but the Blue Opal one is just a stunner!

If you'd liked to add some of these wrap bracelets to your arm candy stack (they look pretty awesome stacked up too) you can save 25% off you entire order just enter the coupon code 'fiveminutestyle25' at checkout!

 Wondering how to put on your wrap? It's super simple

Hold between your thumb and pointer finger...

Wrap, Wrap, Wrap...

And then button it up and you're ready to take on the day! 

I also have a little giveaway coming up where you can win your very own Victoria Emerson bracelet and scarf (they see more then just bracelets) so stayed tuned! 

Thank You to Victoria Emerson for partnering on this post!
