Our Story
WORDS FROM HAPPY LILYBEE FAMILY MEMBERS
I love using these for covering everything! They work wonderfully and have such cool designs! I love being able to ditch the plastic wrap and not feel like I'm compromising the freshness of my food. Loved them so much that I bought another pack after my first try with them! Thank you for this wonderful product :)
My wraps arrived yesterday and I love them. They look beautiful, smell amazing and are brilliant to wrap food in. It's lovely to open the fridge and pantry and see things wrapped in beautiful patterns knowing you are doing good by the environment. I know I'll be ordering more soon for me and for gifts for friends and family. Love that they arrived in paper packaging too
Have been using my new wraps in my kids' lunch boxes all week and they are excellent. No more cling wrap and Ziplock bags. The wraps are so pretty and keep their shape very well. And cleanup is as easy as running the tap. Thanks so much!

Know Yourself.
It’s an odd thing to be asked for advice. It happens most often in business interviews I do for LilyBee. Often it’s in the vein of, if I had one piece of advice for someone getting into business what would it be? That’s one of the easiest questions for me to answer because my advice for business is the same advice I have for life. ...
Mental Health Awareness Week
Mental health week always brings a good flurry of discussion. I like people showing up and being vulnerable. It shows a human side and the truth that we all struggle at times. We just do. We struggle. It seems part of the human condition. Struggle is relative, so even the shiniest of people with the most charmed lives have struggle. You can count on it. ...
Just a few thoughts on 'Eco Snobbery'......
Little man is well into his fourth year of life now. The development is every bit as amazing as every other parent claims. I too am amazed at photos just a mere year or two in the past and the ground he has covered. We are in a fascinating phase that has passed sharing and is more into the social dynamics of inclusion, exclusion, discussion,...

Sun Infused Chamomile and Almond Oil - Recipe
I began to dip my toe in the world of herbalism a few years ago, I was working in a wholefood café and studying Naturopathy. I began with a strong knowledge of anatomy and physiology due to prior study, the sciences made sense, anatomy is tangible. It seemed daunting at first, learning all of the botanical names and the individual properties of herbs and flowers...
Unconditional Love
Musing from an accidental entrepreneur, mama and once upon a time yogini. Ah, we know love is in the air when love hearts, Cupid bows and all things pink and red abound. Reminding us of our relationship status and when we inevitably discuss our feelings around Valentine’s Day with co-workers and friends. It’s nice to be thought of but I generally shy away from any action done...
Christmas Celebrations And Finding Balance
Musing from an accidental entrepreneur, mama and once upon a time yogini. Stressed getting ready for the Christmas holidays? It’s an easy thing to do. Here in NZ we are preparing for what is essentially a nationwide shutdown. (Barring a few things like grocery stores, gas stations and industries like fruit picking). As an American I used to hate it. Odd hours, things not functioning the...
