Handmade

How incredible are these? I'm not sure if I would call them toys, they are just too beautiful! They are all handmade in Brooklyn and really expensive and mostly sold but I'm sure if you really wanted one you could get one custom made. You can get them here.

Cute Creatures

Here are some pretty cute finds from Etsy, I love these little hand made creatures from Lou Lou & Oscar and the coloured animals from The Good Machinery are a cute decorations idea and they make little soft toys for the purpose of story telling. The plant holders from Plaid Pigeon would look great in any room. Etsy is a gold mine but you have to dig deep!

Hot Legs

Sometimes when you are pregnant you feel like crap and getting dressed is a nightmare. A really good way to add something different to a plain outfit (especially in winter) is leggings. Here are a few options that are a little different to the norm. Left to right: Salasai, Jimmy D & Future Classics.

Shading the lightbulb

These lampshades are a pretty sweet alternative to the standard kids stuff. They would look great in any room but why not put them in the nursery? Everything shown can be found at De de ce plus.

Crazy Kids

It seems almost every designer does a kids wear brand and that even includes some of the crazier designers.  I'm not sure what I think about some of these pieces by Daniel Palillo (top) and Henrik Vibskov (bottom).

Nappy Bags

All you need for a nappy bag is some form of a tote bag, well as far as I know anyway. I have never actually looked inside a specifically designed nappy bag so I'm not sure what makes them different to a tote bag. You do need a bag so I say take the opportunity to buy something you love. Here are some options in extremely varying price ranges. I have a different version of the Company of Strangers bag below in dark blue, it is made from recycled leather jackets.

Kids Wallpaper

There are some pretty cool wallpapers out there for kids and these are just a few. I LOVE the skeleton animals the most but not sure how much a kid would like it?

Wooly Feets

Etsy is an absolute gold mine and my most recent find is wooly shoes by Wooly Baby in Philadelphia. Wooly Baby is an eco friendly business making woolen slippers from old sweaters and recycled leather. They keep your babys feet and ankles warm and have a leather sole so they are durable when your baby is starting to walk.
