Homemade hot chocolate powder recipe!

I couldn’t believe the list of ingredients that shop bought hot chocolate had in it, including palm oil and a whole load of E numbers 😮

This was so quick and easy to make, and it actually tastes really good!

The face behind Red Beau!
Hello, I'm Danielle and 8 years ago I set up the business with the intention of making life easier for busy parents when organising a kids party.

🎊 About 4 years ago I noticed that kids' parties in particular had a huge amount of single use plastic waste, but at the time there was very little as an alternative.

🎊 I started to design an affordable but fun option for party bags. The range started to grow and so did my business skills.

🎊 We have now saved thousands of single use plastic toys from landfill and we ship all over the world!

🎊 We have also started to tackle plastic branded products by providing a fun eco-friendly alternative.

If you know someone who would prefer plastic free party favours or plastic free branded products for their next event, tag them in the comments.

Giving not only brings joy to the recipient, but it makes you feel good too - a double whammy.

I love to give where I can and I often donate time and products for local charities.

Is there something you can do to help someone else today?

Happy International Women’s Day!

I am so so fortunate to have amazing women to celebrate in my life, too many to mention but hopefully they know who they are (and I’ll remind them as I see them!)

Who is your biggest inspiration? I’d love to know.

I’m always striving to improve Red Beau. The more people I reach = less plastic to landfill! That’s why I’m always learning 🧠 and improving.

Tomorrow I will officially receive my certificate from Theo Paphitis after winning Small Business Sunday last year!

I’m both excited and nervous because I don’t think I’ll know anyone, but hopefully I’ll make some great new friends and connections 🤞

Make your own playdough! It's cheap and super easy.
*top tip - use plenty of food colouring for stronger colour.

Save the recipe and tag a friend that would find it useful too!

You could spend your evenings handmaking party bags for your childs birthday party if you have the time and energy.
If not, you can get pre-made packs us! You have the choice.

So you might be thinking....why red beau?
Here are 3 reasons that will hopefully help you decide -

I have a university degree in design, using multiple materials. I have also had a keen interest my whole life.
We care! I design my products with my kids (and my child self) in mind. Who wants to get a big box full of air and boring crafts?
We give back! Both Helen and I feel it is important to give back to the community and are often found volunteering. I also organise a huge annual jumble sale raising money for 2 local charities (while also giving unwanted items a second chance with a new home).

I would be really interested to hear how you are getting on with your New Year's resolution - did you make any?
I prefer not to have the pressure of a rigid start date, and be kind to yourself if you have gone off track - you can always get back on.

p.s. If you are interested in making your own eco cleaners, drop a comment below and I'll let you know where I get my instructions from.

If you would also like a fun themed craft table at your child next party - we have lots of themes to choose from. Or if there is a particular theme you are looking for, drop me a message as we may have it in the pipeline.

I came across this quote today and boy does is resonate! It certainly spurs me on to stick to my eco goals.

Hands up if you can relate to this 🙋‍♀️

Filled superhero party bags were by far the best seller last week. At just £2.90 a bag, that sure does save a lot of time and mental space! I have also been told what a positive talking point the are among both kids and parents.
We have other themes too, just take a look in the shop.

Hi my name is Danielle, and when I was this age I desperately wanted to be a potter 🫖

The good news is that I did indeed become a ceramic artist! However life evolved and when I had children I developed a passion for helping busy mums and reducing unnecessary plastic waste.

What I would really like to tell younger me, is that you don't have to have it all figured out! You can have several careers in your lifetime and you are capable and smart enough to achieve success and while holding on to your values too.

What would you tell your younger self? Let me know in the comments (it's actually very therapeutic)
