You know we’re weak for some cool melamine here at BG and combined with our love of all things Skip Hop, it’s taking serious restraint not to add this to our burgeoning collection of dining gear.

A cupboard full of melamine seems to be an essential when you have young children. I have found that it is either covered in characters or expensive so I was really pleased to find Miniamo. They sell stacks of melamine tableware in either bright or pastel colours. They sell stacks of four bowls, plates or [...]

I have been eyeing some melamine baby dining wear at Zara Home kids but I am lusting over this Not Neutral dining set. 100% melamine (they say it’s “the finest melamine”) and made in Thailand, each set has six pieces…. Fab but breakable!I am keeping my fingers crossed that they start to stock more Not Neutral products.
