Udder

I ordered the most gorgeous pieces for Isobel from Udder this week.  They arrived on Friday and are just as beautiful as person as they look online.  So simple and I love the different colours for girls.  No pink!  Hooray!

Iron beds

When I started looking for a big bed for Isobel a few years ago, I found it really hard to get what I wanted (a cast iron vintage or vintage-look bed) without a ridiculous price tag.  I was lucky enough to find a genuine vintage one on Ebay - which I still absolutely adore, it was well worth the trouble to travel to pick it up.  You can see it in her room here.

If I'd seen these lovelies from Incy Interiors at the time, no doubt I would have been tempted.  And they are a reasonable price.  Loving the colours too.  Gorgeous!

Such Great Heights

Love the look of these uber cool kiddies tents by Such Great Heights.  Launching online in August!

Hello Naomi

I was flittering around the blog-o-verse the other day and saw a post on Hello Naomi on the The Red Thread.  I can't believe how simple and beautiful all these cakes and other goodies are!  So so ridiculously pretty.  If only we lived in Newcastle!

Christmas cookies

I've been making Christmas treats for Isobel's teachers and classmates this week.  My first attempt at decorating cookies.....so much fun!

 

 I even had a special little helper......

New children's bed linen from Castle & Things.  Too cute!  Looking forward to the new grown-ups range too......

Stella Cove

Stella Cove creates beach wear for girls and the women who love them.  I love them!  And whilst I might not be ready to don one of those teensy teeny weeny little bikinis myself, I'm loving the little girls stuff.

Mor-Stor

I'm always on the lookout for simple, stylish storage solutions.  These containers from Mor-Stor look great for playrooms and bedrooms.  Anywhere you want to get those ugly plastic toys contained and hidden away.  Definitely one to keep in mind when I finally get round to being organised!

Covet Garden

Another online interiors magazine!  I found this one via Belinda's blog, The Happy Home.  Like her, I want to know all about the people who create such inspiring interiors.   The more information I have, the happier I am!  Covet Garden is like crack for information junkies like me.  I want to know how they did it, why they did it and everything in between.

I really admire people who can see the value in objects that others discard or overlook.   Shelley and Brenden, featured in this months issue, are just these types. It takes confidence to display such objects in your home, almost as though they are works of art.  And they can be, sometimes they just need the space to breathe.

Here are some images from the latest issue:
