Introducing Spearmark And Their New Mumbassador!⁠⁠⁠⁠

amomentwithfranca · 16 September 2017 · 11 Comments

I am so excited to tell you my latest news: I have been chosen to be part of the brand new ‘Mumbassador’ panel for Spearmark! This is a really nice role as we will be able to road test their latest products and show you what they have to offer as well as perhaps help you to decide which cool new gifts you can get this Christmas! 😉

ABOUT SPEARMARK

For those of you that have not heard of Spearmark before, they are housewares and lighting specialists who were founded in 1908.  Spearmark is a privately owned family business based in Cambridgeshire. They manufacture, market and sell a vast range of products from lunch bags, mugs and on-the-go drinkware to bedside lamps, novelty lighting and lots of variations in between.

They work with some of the best-loved brands such as Thomas the Tank Engine, Peppa Pig, Disney Frozen, Marvel, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and Minions! We are very excited about our new role!

SPEARMARK SATCHEL COOL BAG

We were sent two satchel bags for Bella and Sienna to use. Bella’s previous lunch box was actually a satchel Spearmark one too, in hot pink. We were sent Red and Purple ones this time.

The colour is perfect as Bella’s favourite colour is red so she was very happy to see her new satchel bag when it arrived.

Little Sienna was also very excited to receive a new satchel bag and she loves having it in purple. She doesn’t need a lunch box at pre-school as she has her meals prepared there but this bag has been very useful when we have been out and about to put a drink and some snacks and a fruit. This way she keeps herself entertained as she is always asking for food!

These bags are so practical. They come with a long strap so it is easy to carry over your shoulder. If you prefer, you can carry it in your hands using the handle so it is up to you to decide how to style it. Bella loves having this option so she changes the way she carries it depending on her mood.

They are designed in a contemporary satchel style and they come with an insulated interior that keeps food fresh so you can enjoy healthy lunches on the go at any time of the day. This is not just ideal for kids but also for adults as you can take it to work, college or for a picnic.

You have plenty of room to fill it with lots of things. Bella takes to school 2 tupperware boxes containing her sandwiches and a snack, as well as a bottle of water and fruit. All of that fits perfectly well!

They are the perfect fusion of fashion and functionality as they look cool as well as keeping your lunch cool too! So yes, it is a fab combination.

FEATURES

  • Vibrant colours – available in vibrant pops of pastel, there’s a Satchel Cool Bag to suit every outfit.
  • Versatile – the Satchel Cool bag has a handle or strap so you can choose how to style it – carry in your hand or on your shoulders.
  • Insulating qualities – the silver coloured lining helps keep food fresh and cool.
  • Easy to clean – simply wipe the lining clean and freshen up the satchel with a damp sponge and soapy water.
  • Spacious – there is plenty of room for your packed lunch and a drink.
  • Name Tag – Label the name tag so your lunch bag never goes missing.

They also have new Spearmark Satchel Lunch Backpacks. These have the same features but allow you to carry it on your back. Fantastic right?

Spearmark Satchel Cool Bags and Backpack Lunch Bags cost £10 from Sainsbury’s stores and online plus Toys R Us & Dunelm stores. See Amazon details below for the cool bags:

 

LIGHT UP XMAS 2017 WITH NEW STAR WARS ILLUMI – MATE

For all the Star Wars fans this will be just amazing to have. Spearmark has a brand new range of Star Wars colour changing, cool to touch Illumi-mates, colour changing, cool to touch lights in a range of hit characters from the iconic movies. Each light is battery operated, with batteries supplied.

Leading the line-up is a brand new Storm Trooper which will hit shelves just as The Last Jedi is released into cinemas on December 15th. A perfect replica of the Storm Troopers seen in the new movie, it’s bound to be top of the gift list for die hard Star Wars fans! Other choices in the range include the Millenium Falcon, Chewbacca, Kylo-Ren or Darth Vader to cast a moody glow across the bedroom.

They have an RRP of £6.99 from a variety of stockists including ASDA, B&Q, Debenhams, Sainsbury’s, Tesco and Wilkinson. See Amazon details below:

What do you think of these satchel bags from Spearmark? Will you get one too? Are you a Star Wars fan? Will you get an Illumi-mate for Xmas? 

*Disclosure: I was sent these lovely bags as part of the Mumbassador Panel role we have with Spearmark. However, all thoughts and opinions are my own. Content affiliate links. 

Thanks for stopping by,

Love you all ❤️

    These satchels are lovely – isn’t it funny how satchels have come back into vogue after so many years.

    I love these bags. We have a similar one. My daughter is at that in-between stage of being too old for certain bags but still young and wanting something fun. These are definitely just right for her 🙂

✨ Cat Cafe In London✨.📍Bella and I went t ✨ Cat Cafe In London✨.📍Bella and I went to @javawhiskersuk , a cat cafe located in @westfieldlondon . This was my present for Mother’s Day from her🌸.🌟 Before we went inside, we had to go to a separate room to wash our hands and remove our shoes..🐾 They have 2 different rooms: the Cat Lounge and the Kitten Lounge and you can choose to stay from 55 mins to 1hr 55 mins. The prices vary depending on the room you choose and the length of time..🍰 When we stepped inside the room we were greeted by a group of gorgeous kittens. We ordered (before we went inside the room) a latte and a delicious chocolate muffin with chocolate melted inside that was so good. This was served to us in the room while we were surrounded by these adorable kittens..🐱 We spent 55 mins playing and petting the kittens. They were so cute. We loved interacting with them..🥰 Their cafe is also a foster home for homeless cats so if you are looking to adopt one, this is the place to visit! They have had 230 successful adoptions already! 🙌🏻.🚨 The only downside is that you have to be over 10 years old in order to be allowed inside the rooms 😬.🐈 If you are a cat lover like us, I highly recommend you visit Java Whiskers! It is the perfect place to unwind and relax with these beautiful kittens! 🙌🏻.Have you visited a Cat Cafe before? 🐈‍⬛ .#javawhiskers #catcafe #catcafelondon #londoncafe #westfieldlondon #londondayout #daysout #thingstodoinlondon #newplaces #londonguide #lovecats😻 #catsofinstagram #catloversday #londonthingstodo #whatsonlondon

We spent 55 mins arround gorgeous kittens. I had a great time! I am a cat lover so this was a fab present for me! I will talk more about this experience on another post but if you swipe left you can see a little peak of our time there! 🐈😉.Today, the girls and Nick took me for the actually Mother’s Day celebration 🎉 to @cafejackss in Queen’s Park where we had brunch. It was a yummy treat. Swipe left to check it out! 😋 .After that we went for a walk. There was a small market nearby so it was nice to have a little look around 😍. We then went back home and spent the rest of the day chilling which is something, I’m not going to lie, I love doing! 😉😂.How was your day?#mothersdayuk #mothersdayweekend #mothersday2023 #motherofdaughters #mumoftwo #mumofgirls #mydaughters #lovemydaughters #daughterslove #mummydaughtertime #daughtersarethebest #daughtersrock #spendingtimetogether #happyfamilytime #familytime💕
✨My Girls✨.Due to the strikes we had Sienna ✨My Girls✨.Due to the strikes we had Sienna at home yesterday and today, and Bella only today. I thought it would be very chaotic but despite it always being louder when the girls are at home, especially my youngest one, lol, we did well..Bella did school work at home today and had the afternoon free. Sienna didn’t do school work. We only asked her to carry on doing Spanish and Maths via Duolingo. She also had Spanish lessons this afternoon (every Thursday she has lessons) so both days were manageable thankfully 😍.How was it for you? Did your kids stay at home or did they go to school? .PS: let’s hope things get better for teachers. I fully support the strikes. .#sistertime #sisterlylove #sistersgoals #hermanas #sistersforever #sistersforlife #sisterslove #siblingslove #lovemydaughters #raisingdaughters #mydaughters #londonkids #WembleyPark #wembley #londondesigneroutlet
✨Happy Weekend✨.How is your weekend going so ✨Happy Weekend✨.How is your weekend going so far? I am finally feeling more normal after the massive jetlag I had after my trip to South America. I am not sure why it hit me so much this time but it has taken me about two solid weeks to properly be back to my routine without feeling right. Waking up in the mornings was the worst. It was very hard, especially when I had to be on time for the school run! 😩.Anyway, everything feels better now! 😊.How long does it take you to be back to normal after a jetlag? Do you have any tricks or tips to speed this process? .📸 Selfy taken in Barranco, a lively district in Peru considered to be one of the most romantic and bohemian places to visit and being the home and working place of many Peruvian artists, musicians, designers, photographers among others 😎.#thisisme #selfie #instaselfie #smilemore #brunettehair #greeneyes #over40#over40blogger #overforty #overfortystyle #over40andfabulous #over40mom #outandabout #barrancolima
