brighton art


Maybe it’s because I was a Brightonian, but I love the prints by artist Sean Sims on the website BRIGHTON POD. I already posted before his alphabet but the posters of Brighton are also worth a look

ByGraziela Design



It's nice to see some cheerful design by kids rooms and this is vintage too, as they are prints from the seventies from Germany.
This designs have been used for everything from bedding, cushions, posters and tableware; a good alternative to the Orla Kiely ones!

I love Bugaboo Donkey!


I am a big fun of the Bugaboo, I cannot recommend it enough even of it is not the easiest to fold it, but now Bugaboo is coming to the market with the double version which is just Genious, a real piece of clever design that no-one has yet thought about. It is a single pram that with just a simple extending mechanism it extends the width of the wheels and you can add an extra component for a second child/baby or your shopping!
Amazing, have a look at the video:

but..as usual with Bugaboo this comes with a price tag, a very high one that no other pram has ever reached: 1,200 pounds!!...and it is already sold out before hitting the shops!

toy kitchen


This is my favorite toy kitchen that i would be happy to have in my living room..the price tag at 125pounds is an investment but the size and the look is sooo nice!

Arty magnetic boards


Who said that magnetic boards are just a metallic sheet? this company called beyond the fridge makes large magnetic boards which are wall art in itself. Ideal to brighten up a kitchen but also nice in an office studio:

London art



I loved both these posters of London; the day I will leave this city or for a present for someone leaving they are a great idea. The ABC one would look lovely in a kid's room.
The red one (also available in grey) from: http://famillesummerbelle.com/prod_maps_london.html

Belgian rocking chair


Thanks to my friend Manu, a follower of my blog, who gave me a couple of Belgian websites for kids stuff. I really liked this one:

in particular the nice rocking chair that comes in a variety of colour and would look pretty in any nursery.
