"hand made soft toys and throw pillows"

On the weekend while browsing Buy Modern Baby, I came across Kate Durkin and I couldn’t wait to share her goodies with you.  Kate makes the loveliest nursery art and some adorable throw pillows in animal shapes.  The pillows are also perfect as hug-able soft toys for babies and young kids.  Her style is clean and simple which gives her goodies their huge appeal.  I love all the artwork… there’s a certain softness of style and a sophistication which makes them appealing for kids and adults too.   The pillows too would look equally at home on a living room sofa or in a kiddy space.  I’m extremely partial to style that has no age boundaries and that’s what Kate manages to do so well.  The soft toys cost from $28 and the prints from $18.  Kate Durkin is based in New York but she ships worldwide from her Etsy store.

"H-luv mushroom handmade soft toy"I was window shopping at Sweet William when I spotted some mushrooms.  I’m not talking chestnut, shitake or enoki even but mushrooms of a kind I had never laid eyes on… these gorgeously quirky mushroom plush toys!  They’re cool, quirky, whimsical and ever so unique.  I decided to dig a little further and found out that these soft toys are designed and hand made in California by H-Luv.  Heidi Iverson is the talent behind H-Luv and she uses materials with minimal environmental impact to create her unique wares.  Also by H-Luv are other plush toys including handmade owls, russian dolls, cats and more.  New York based Sweet William sell these mushrooms which cost from $42 plus $14 for International shipping.  

And for more quirky hand made soft toys have a look at these gorgeous soft elephant dolls and don’t miss these poetic Pigmee soft toys!
