Our Month In Pictures

Once again we've had a fantastic month at Highland Angel HQ, filled with adventures, cakes, a new team member and of course lots of hard work! Follow our highlights after the jump...

Spice Up Your Life

 

It's the little things that make a house a home - rearranging the furniture, a fresh lick of paint or even hanging a couple of new pictures can transform a room and make it feel brand new. We think these jar labels are brilliant - download free then print on a sheet of one-label paper and add to glass jars, tins or little ceramic pots to brighten up your kitchen.

Pop Idol

If you're planning a movie night this weekend, forget traditional sweet and salted... pop til you drop with our delicious homemade popcorn recipes!

Men With Class Don't Need A Glass

It's been a busy week at Highland Angel HQ, with Father's Day just 11 days away! If you're stuck for inspiration about what to give the most important man in your life, why not take a look at our new pocket hipflasks? Engraved with either initials or a special message, they're the perfect way to say thanks.

New Dogs, New Tricks

Say hello to the newest member of our team! He'll be joining us at Highland Angel HQ in five weeks time and while we've already drawn up a list of chores for the cute recruit, he doesn't have a name yet... Paws for thought - if you have any suggestions, we'd love to hear from you!

Kitchen Beautician

Washing, brushing, straightening, curling, crimping, primping. This weekend, be extra nice to your hair - it's exhausted! This DIY hair mask takes minutes to prepare and will restore the lush to your locks in no time.

Brownie Points

Elevenses are an important part of daily life at Highland Angel HQ. A few weeks ago, to mark Christina's last day, we enjoyed some delicious chocolate brownies. The recipe - from Hummingbird Bakery - is simple to follow and the results are sure to make you sing!

Little Lord Fontleroy

It's fair to say that fonts are a little bit geeky. Comic Sans, Times New Roman, anyone for Arial Narrow?! However if like us, you're partial to a spot of blogging or designing, you'll know that the fonts you use say a lot about you and can help you say a lot. Forget the regulars like Verdana and Calibri - Lucinda Sans who!? - we're talking Throw My Hands Up In The Air, Call Me Maybe, Pencil Pete. There are thousands of stylish fonts available to download and are free for personal use so next time you're designing invites, printing letterheads or want to edit some photographs, why not visit www.dafont.com. We've listed some of our favourite fonts above to get you started.

If you go down to the woods today...

... you're sure of a big surprise! Welcome to Erin Gleeson's neck of the woods - a former food photographer from New York City who moved to a cabin in the woods of North Carolina and never looked back. Erin's fabulous blog, The Forest Feast, offers "inspiring, healthy recipes which are easy to make after a long day at work, yet impressive enough for a party".
