Cuteness alert! Loving these sweet toadstool vinyl stools which add some woodland fun to a bedroom or playroom. £29 each Cox and Cox. For more toadstool cool check out the mini nightlights, the toadstool minihouse by Lark, and the amazing toadstool lights by Heico.

STUVA Storage by Ikea

It’s been a while coming but it’s a relief to see that Ikea has injected some new kids storage furniture into their latest range. Keeping it simple as always and available in several colourways (although white actually looks the best), I’m liking the STUVA range for its understated appeal that invites you to hide away [...]

Swoop! Giant Lego Storage Available to Buy & Pre-order

Remember back in June when I featured giant Lego storage at Store? If you haven’t snapped yours up already, do, as they’re now available to buy! Some colours are available for pre-order for dispatch in the first week of September. £17-£26 each – woop and swoop!

Green, Blue & Pink SOMNAT Cots by Ikea

   It was a swoon session when Kat tipped me off to Ikea’s new colourful SOMNAT cots range! I’m a huge fan of colour cots (we own Brio’s yellow Sleep cotbed) and these sorbet green, blue, and pink cots at just £49 (!!!) are bound to be snapped up and are an instant colour and [...]

Cool Apple Motif Buys at Funky Moose

While the apple motif is an enduring trend, I am seeing a surge in delights recently making it a hot trend. I’m loving the shiny red apple stool with its soft stalk and removable lid for storage which is a very wallet friendly buy at £23.50. The padded noticeboard with its criss crossing elastic is [...]

Elephant Table Bookshelf by Leka

As soon as I clapped eyes on this clutter reducing elephant table bookshelf by long established Swedish brand Leka, my mind whirred into action mentally envisioning where one should go in our home. Originally designed in the late 50′s, it’s been given a contemporary update by Yngve Eriksson. Made from solid wood, the simple design [...]

Transforming Ikea Drawers With Bold Wrapping Paper & Decorative Tape

I’ve been busy customising the girls Aneboda drawers by Ikea and wanted to share the work-in-progress after great feedback from peeps on Twitter. I’ve been meaning to inject some excitement into what are effectively very basic drawers that are cheap but no so cheerful at just £39.99. It’s not finished yet but if you’d like [...]

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 [...]

Canopy Crib by Fringe of Heaven

Ah…sigh… If I’d founded Bambino Goodies earlier in my first pregnancy rather than just before I was due to pop, I suspect I would have hustled the boyf for a proper crib like this whimsical beauty from New Zealand company Fringe of Heaven. Handcrafted from soft beech timber, the Canopy Crib is and is sized [...]

Habitat Loni Kids Bookshelf

We all want our furniture to inspire but it is not often that you find anything out of the ordinary from a bookcase. Of course it is Habitat who deliver with both elegance and design. This simple concept of off-centre boxes arranged within a bookcase gives an alternating rhythm of open and closed space. It’s [...]

Coming Soon! Giant Lego Storage (We Kid You Not!)

Height of cool alert! I’m quite the Lego fan (like a lot of people) so when I saw these giant Lego storage boxes on the Ideal Home magazine blog, HomeShoppingSpy, I got myself into one of my shopping palpitation tizzies. Tapping into the trend for playing with scale, there’s the (slightly scary) storage head, £17, [...]

Chiconomy Buy: Electric Blue Junior Bed…by Argos

I was flicking through the January issue of Living Etc and as soon as I spotted this electric blue pine (yes pine but don’t panic) toddler bed in their ‘Stylish Kids Rooms’ marked as a chiconomy buy, I was like ‘Hmm, where’s that from? What? Argos?’ Yep! If this were in its native pine it [...]

BabaBing Lobo Reclining Bouncer

I took one look at BabaBing’s Lobo reclining bouncer and felt a surge of lust followed by a surge of disappointment that the baby’s already 6 months old and sitting up. Sigh… The Lobo reclining bouncer is definitely one of those baby items that you’d be proud to leave out even when it’s not in [...]

Chiconomy Buy: Zara Home’s Villa Chair vs Junior Crate Chair

What’s the difference between these two chairs? A lot when you consider that one is a pint sized version of a chair originally designed in 1934 by Gerrit Rietveld that still looks like the wooden crates that they were originally made from back then. The other has deck chair and picket fence leanings and gentle [...]

Perludi’s Oskar at Work and Constantin

It’s time for a dose of sumptuous furniture for kids with big(ish) pricetags. I featured Perludi’s Amber in the Sky bunkbed a few months back which has an eyewatering pricetag of over €2100 and the Austrian design company have applied the same design aesthetics to their Oskar at Work table and bench and their Constantin [...]
