While speaking to the lovely Kellie from Moo Woo Handmade earlier this week, I was introduced to a new range of handmade goodies made by a stylish Mum by the name of Em who lives in the remote Kimberley region. Em is a  busy Mum of three who uses her sewing time for relaxation, during which she has whipped up the beautiful goodies that you see below.

Em has been a hobby sewer for quite sometime and has just been convinced to sew a few items for sale. Her charming cushion covers feature a selection of Alexander Henry fabrics and make wonderful accent pieces for a room. If you’d like to show your support for Em and encourage her to keep creating, you can pop over to Moo Woo and check out her range. I’m certainly keen to see more!

This month, the folks at Danish by Design have released the Bamboo by Bombol seat for the first time in Australia and it is modern design candy at its best. The styling is sleek and minimalist with a lightweight frame that is highly flexible and can hold up to 18kg. It’s available in three colourways {spring lime, elephant grey or coconut cream} and is a case of “come for the style, stay for the features”…

The basic concept behind the design is its versatility. It has a flexible 3D frame and elasticised fabric that lets your little one choose a position {sitting, playing, resting} simply by shifting their weight. You can lock in a position by adjusting the straps when needed and release it again without having to move the child out of the seat.

The bouncer is suitable for newborns through to toddlers, with an additional “newborn kit” available that includes a head support. The harness on the seat acts as a safety brace, but once your child is older, you can remove the brace and use the seat as a stylish mini lounge chair. Plus, once you’re finished with it, 95% of the Bamboo seat can be recycled at the end of its life. Good news!

You’ll find the Bamboo by Bombol online at Danish by Design.

If you’re thinking about experimenting with some interior decorating over the holiday break, I urge you push paint aside for a moment and think back to the papery walls of yesteryear. Last month I met Kaliska Poynter from Crave Interiors and she’s got me in a wallpaper tizzy!

When I was young, I had Holly Hobbie wallpaper on my bedroom walls and would spend hours lying in bed imagining how much fun I could have if I could join Holly and her friends, frolicking through the fields and picking dandelions.

When you think about wallpaper for kids, it’s easy to imagine those old school wallpaper borders that were popular in the 80s {ducks, teddy bears…} but times have changed my friend, and the humble wallpaper industry has had a design makeover. For example, I’m seriously smitten with the Studio Ditte Collection from the Netherlands. How awesome is the robot design, and what about those vintage porcelain plates?

You can find a full range of children’s wallpaper, wall murals and decals, and general interior decorating products at Crave Interiors.

I stumbled across these sweet Ikea furniture alterations today and I promptly added them to my wishlist in preparation for my next kids’ room makeover. They’re from MyKea, a concept store that sells adhesive decals made to fit the most popular Ikea furniture styles. The designs are easy to apply, easy to remove and won’t damage your furniture. Dig it!

This frankly awesome pirate design is from the creative mind of Bart Aalbers, an intriguing guy from Rotterdam who digs drawing, graphic design and animation.

This sweet amplifiers set is designed by Dutch illustration duo, LouLou and Tummie. These guys are experts in urban design; you may remember me featuring some of their paper toys a while back.
