Just before Christmas we were sent two hats from handmade store, Minnie’s Macaroon to try out, so we gave them a good wear in over the holidays and I have to say, we loved them!

Minnie’s Macaroons is a company started by one lady in West Yorkshire and she creates every item by hand herself. She focuses on creating adorable, kooky animal beanie hats and gift designs for young and old alike. All the products are brightly coloured, eye catching & are made using lovely soft Icelandic Yarn.

We were sent an owl for H and a monkey for J (well, he is a little monkey lately!) and when they arrived I was blown away. They are bright and fun, but also so so soft and snuggly warm.

The children loved wearing the hats as they are just so much fun to look at and giggled profusely when they first tried them on, swapping them over to try each others, although H firmly declared the owl one was hers.
