Lately I’ve become a bit obsessed with geometric shaped wall stickers that can be stuck on randomly in a room and these ones from Sirlig are my latest find. Sirlig is Danish for ‘delights’ and that’s exactly what this store is full of… little delights. From the adorable wall stickers to that sweet doll and those animal pencil cases, all their goodies are the kinds of things that will make you smile. And it’s not just for kids. There’s plenty on offer that will work just as well in an adult, child or family space like that colourful cloud print hung above the dining table. Of all the geometric wall stickers at Sirlig, I think those pale turquoise polka dot ones are probably my favourite but there’s plenty to choose from including the turquoise hearts, some triangles, diamonds and more.

11 Polka dotted lovelies
September 26, 2011
I love polka dots. It’s such a simple design that works so well on many things, especially things for kids. I’ve picked out some polka dotted lovelies for you and your bambinos:
1. These polka dot ballet shoes were the inspiration behind this post. When I saw them, it was instant lust. How adorable are they?! I love the red and white with the black trim and bow. So stunning. They’re made by Sayang Design, a Japanese store with the most delicious shoes for kids.*
2. This bambi-esque tee is made special with the addition of the navy blue polka dots. So sweet. This too is from a Japanese store and this store is called Enjoy 2u 2u 4u.*
3. A baby shower invite with chicks and polka dots. I’m liking the blue-brown colour combo and the simple design. Love the little chicks too. This polka dots baby shower invite comes from an Etsy store called Paper by Jill M.
4. A little mustard coloured polka dot pencil case by Lale, one of my favourite French brands. Lale also make very chic retro inspired suitcases for kids and mama’s and lovely girly hair clips too. This polka dots pencil case is from smallable.com where you’ll find lots of Lale’s other goodies too.
5. More gorgeous shoes by Sayang Design. These ones are perfect for boy or girl, don’t you think?
6. Vintage inspired cushions by a cool French store called Les Choses Bizarres. The store name means ‘weird things’ but the goodies on offer are definitely more wonderful then weird! Visit Les Choses Bizarres where you’ll find these polka dot cushions for kids as well as some vintage looking bibs, pencil cases and more.
7. A navy and white polka dot cardigan for the girlies. I love the hint of red thrown in. This is yet another Japanese find made by Cri de Joie and comes from a store called Esserini.*
8. I couldn’t resist this polka dot felt garland. The vibrant colours and the simple circle shapes are just so attractive. I found this over on a blog called Living with Punks where there’s a tutorial so you can make your own.
9. Wow! Loving this navy polka dots satchel so much. So chic, so stylish. It could be used as a school bag but this one’s really for all you mama’s. Made by Zatchels you can get it at Liberty’s or try Zatchels own site where they have many colours on offer including a bold and beautiful red one. Seriously tempting!
10. A very quirky and cool cloth doll wearing a bright orange polka dot dress. This doll is hand made in Israel and comes from Timor’s etsy store. All her cloth dolls are handmade and are one of a kind so once they’re gone, they’re gone!
11. Last is another pair of shoes from Sayang Design for the boys. Love the teal colour. I think you’ve probably guessed by now that I’m crazy about Sayang Design’s shoes for the bambinos!

Shiny, shiny pencil cases
August 11, 2011
I love shiny stuff. Be it bags or shoes or copper pans, as long as it shines I’ll be drawn to it like a bee to honey. So naturally these super shiny vinyl pencil cases by Bakker Made with Love score top marks in my book. The colours are so bold they almost pop through the screen. All the more reason to covet these pencil cases. But if colour’s not your thing, they also have a shiny black pencil case as well as a brown one. If you feel as partial to them as I do, you might want to check out the matching Bakker Made with Love school bags. They too are delectable and the pair would make quite the style kit for the new school year. These Bakker pencil cases can be found at Smallable for £9.68 each plus shipping at around a fiver to Europe but they ship worldwide too. I’m fancying one for me too… you’re never too old for a pencil case, are you?
Sweet: Russian doll inspired stationery
July 28, 2011
I have never made a secret of my near obsessive stationery addiction. I had a couple of good years where it was under control but then ebabee no.1 came along and a whole new world of kiddy stationery opened up to me. I fell off the wagon with a thud (I had gained baby weight, ok?) and I don’t think I’ll be climbing back on anytime soon. Definitely not after what I’ve seen today.
A short while ago I came across Boumaga, a French brand that makes the sweetest stationery I have seen in the longest while. Russian doll / babushka inspired graphics adorn pencils, rulers, pencil cases, notebooks and erasers. The graphics are no more than an outline with a few embellishments in mainly purple or pink. It’s this simplicity of design that makes the Boumaga stationery so stylish and very cute too. Boumaga is new and isn’t yet widely available but you can order direct from their site. They do thankfully ship to the UK and the whole EU for €9.30. The Boumaga range costs from €1.50 to €15. I’m seriously tempted, that addiction won’t feed itself!
P.S. I love the idea of the pencil and eraser as a party favour.
K Studio: Quirky style for kids and mama’s too
March 23, 2011
Yesterday I stumbled across K Studio and it was love. Michigan based mother and daughter create the most stylish pillows, bags and wall art. Simplicity and minimalism are mixed with bags of charm to create quirky and cool designs. In terms of colours, off whites and sandy beige’s dominate with fine black childlike drawings and the odd hint of orange, red and pale blue. And their stuff isn’t just for the kids. I can see their creations feeling perfectly at home in a kiddy space or an adult space. Have a look and don’t miss the chap who wears his heart on his sleeve or the pretty bird pillow. There’s also that cat pouch which would make a sweet pencil case. I could go on but I’ll let you discover more at K Studio. They deliver internationally and prices start from around $30 plus shipping from $10. This mother and daughter are a class act, if you ask me.
