Hand made teddy bears

March 31, 2014

Who doesn’t love a cuddly teddy bear? And these ones by Polka Dot Club are made with love and care by an artist who believes in heritage toys but with a modern update. These bears are all handmade using only natural materials instead of the synthetic fibres that you mostly find these days. Jennifer Murphy, the artist behind Polka Dot Club, learned to sew and make teddy bears from her mother. And not so long ago she started this adorable club where you can find limited edition and one off bears like these as well as the cutest little rabbits. Handmade, durable, and natural toys are becoming more and more rare so it’s always exciting to come across someone who is so passionate about toys that aren’t just for today but for generations to come. The handmade teddy bears also come with the cutest wardrobe, don’t you think?

1. lunch bag style clutch… 2. floral printed kids dress… 3. ballet bunny soft toy… 4. face cleanse powder… 5. stoneware trinket box… 6. dotty oxford shoes.

A family of elephants by Atelier Sans Souci

March 3, 2014

This family of elephant dolls is just the cutest, don’t you think? They’re created by a new group of designers called Atelier Sans Souci who also make furniture, illustrations, jewellery and more. Their first collection, full of imagination and creativity, is all handmade by local craftsmen and carpenters making it even more special. There’s a dolls house that can be used as a play or work space, there are the sweetest bow shaped wall hooks, fun illustrations and more. My favourite though are this adorable elephant family.

I’m loving the pops of neon throughout the collection and the little extra details on each piece. You can see the rest of the collection at the lovely Sisters Guild, who are the only UK stockists of Atelier Sans Souci at the moment.

Today I was feeling drawn to this simple colour palette of soft pinks, greys, creams and a bit of black. This pinterest colour palette was inspired by that little girl in her very cool outfit. These colours work so well on an outfit but I especially love them for a kids room. The next time I decorate Anya’s room, this is the colour palette for me.

1. Girls style, 2. Jealous baby toy, 3. Pompom shoes, 4. Trio of soft toys, 5. Mouse slippers

A natural nursery…

October 16, 2013

Lately I’ve been coming across many Scandinavian homes decorated with lots of natural wood. The look is clean and minimal but still very warm. So I started thinking about using natural wood with natural colours and fabrics for decorating a baby nursery. It’s ideal for boy or girl so if you don’t know what you’re having, you can still go ahead and decorate without compromising. And since the wood is bare, you can even make some of the furniture yourself, like storage shelves and simple tables. And the best part is that it’s not a look your child will outgrow in a hurry. Here are a few things I picked out that would work well in a natural nursery:

1. bear print… 2. toy shelf… 3. elephant soft toy… 4. pale spotted duvet set… 5. luminous linen star light… 6. caravan crib in natural.

There is something so eye-catching and vibrant about turquoise blue. So when I spotted that cool turquoise and green room it inspired me for todays pinterest colour palette. I love using blue and green together whether it’s midnight-blue with emerald green or turquoise with a fresher green like here. And you can always add a little grey in to the mix if you feel like you need something neutral to balance it out.

1. Turquoise and green kids room, 2. Mountain peaks kids blanket, 3. Baby ballerina shoes, 4. Howling wolf wallsticker, 5. Handmade doll twins.

Of all the social media sites out there, I’m enjoying pinterest the most at the moment. I love looking at pretty pictures and pinterest is full of them. So I thought it would be fun to occasionally share some of my pins and also pins from other inspirational pinners. But instead of just sharing pictures randomly, I’ve picked a colour palette and have chosen images within these colours. So for this first one I’ve gone with black, white, green and the slightest hint of a peachy pink. I love this combination of colours and think they would work well together in a kids room or even as an outfit.

Are you on pinterest? Do you love it too or what’s your favourite social media?

1. Green knitted sweater, 2. Black and white kids room, 3. Don’t grow up poster, 4. Green striped jacket, 5. Cat at the altar doll
