Items I Use & Love

I’m often asked what I actually use in our kitchen and home. I’m not a minimalist by any stretch,
but I do practice gentle minimalism to reduce the mental load of things that take up space, make a mess,
and rob me of my sanity. This page gathers the few items I reach for constantly – plus US equivalents where helpful.
Shopping via these links supports my work here on Mumma Flow at no extra cost. Thank you.

Family Flow Essentials

Tools that help us mark the seasons, celebrate our people, and keep our rhythm outdoors in every kind of weather.

Celebration Ring

A simple way to bring meaning to ordinary days and make birthdays feel truly special. We set ours on the table or mantle and change it with the season — candles, little figures, and a number for birthdays — so it quietly tells the story of where we are in the year and who we’re celebrating.

  • Beeswax Candles + Holders — warm, golden light for birthdays and seasonal evenings.

Waldorf Toddler Play Essentials

  • Mini Bean Bags — simple and open-ended for tossing, balancing, sorting, and movement play.

My Own Creation: The Family Flow Starter Kit 🌿

help you move through your days with more ease, presence, and connection.
