The latest online boutique to open its doors is a treat for lovers of children’s interior design.

Bobles play tent

I’ve been on the hunt for a wigwam or play house for Alfie and during my search I happened upon this little gem from hip Danish company Bobles, who make the tremendously fun Tumbling Animals, also available from Little Zebra. Not quite a tipi, not quite a wendy house, the indoor play tent is the [...]

Ideas for a Woodland-Themed Room

Now that we’ve saved the UK’s forests (yay for people power) I thought it was appropriate that we did a round-up of the best ideas for woodland-themed rooms – it seems that children’s designers’ love of this subject knows no bounds. Let’s start with the walls. There’s a myriad of tree wallpapers out there, but [...]

Rice.dk Mini Patchwork Pouf

I worship at the alter of all things Rice.dk, the supercool Danish fairtrade brand chock full of affordable homewares and accessories in popping brights and cool prints for instantly recognisable granny boho chic.

While the apple motif is an enduring trend, I am seeing a surge in delights recently making it a hot trend.

HappyCat Beanbags

After seeing Saria leaping around on the Fatboy beanbags at Bubble I have begun to think there might be room in our house for a modern styled beanbag. These HappyCat bean bags from Nordic Elements really appeal to me. From Danish designers Chrisitne Schwarzer and Anne Birgitte Balle of RoomMate they are designed to provide [...]

Swoon! Oeuf NYC at Smallable

We own a Leander cotbed, a yellow Brio Sleep, and one day if and when a third child enters the BG household, I reckon a cot or junior bed by NYC eco chic brand Oeuf NYC could be on the cards. Beautiful, uncluttered, contemporary design with that super desirable blend of functional meets style. I [...]

Summer 2010 from Little Baby Company

Little Baby Company is easily one of my favourite online shops. I might even be guilty of staking out their new products section more than is strictly healthy.
