Last Friday I wrote about Fanny & Alexander, a wonderful store from Buenos Aires. In that post I mentioned that I am visiting Argentina in January (so excited!). I then got a lovely comment from one of my Argentinian readers and we began exchanging emails. Sadly I won’t be able to meet her as I am not visiting the city she lives in but it’s been fun chatting to her. That is one of my absolute favourite parts of writing this blog – hearing from you, my readers. I have had contact with many people from across the globe because of this blog and I hope to meet some of them one day. It was this Argentinian reader who told me about Krethaus and I was besotted. Thank you Soledad for sharing this lovely store.
Krethaus are also from Buenos Aires and make furniture, cushions, bedding and rugs for kids and babies. Their designs are simple with clean lines and muted colours. I’m totally loving all those cushions… how cute is the red mustache one? And that kids bed? I love the simple yet dramatic headboard and the natural wood. Using lots of natural materials throughout their creations all of Krethaus’ furniture is handmade making it even more special. They describe their designs as having a ‘quiet elegance’ and I have to agree. I am really loving discovering all these gorgeous stores from Buenos Aires and I shall be adding Krethaus to my list of places to visit when I am there. I don’t think Krethaus ship internationally yet but you could always drop them a line and I’m sure they’ll help.
P.S. Have you entered out Halloween giveaway?

I love the furniture, specially the crib, which I’ve been considering buying for the room of my newborn. It looks almost identical to Oeuf’s design.
Love from México!

i thought that too… the dresser, crib and side table all look very Oeuf like. I love the kids bed too. Are you looking at Oeuf crib or Krethaus one? Big congratulations on your new baby, btw! And thanks for stopping by.

I too had always wanted the Oeuf sparrow crib for my baby but it wasn’t available in the UK 4 years ago – it came about 3 years ago I think. Glad you’ve decided. Send me a picture of your nursery when it’s done – would love to see it. And thanks for the compliments! 🙂
