View time differently

Sometimes when I look for the time, all I see is this...

But what I really want is to see this...

Both found via the fancy.



Would I prefer the time to be spelt out to me?

























Having to read the time may make you savour it that little bit more?
Available here.


Time passing is stressful, maybe a bubble wrap calendar is the cure?

Time is something we all want more of, but will never get, so make the most of it.

Alphabet inspired

26 letters can say a lot.

What a great range of products the alphabet has inspired.

I can't helping wanting this lot.

Letter crayons available here, pillow here, mugs here, wall stickers here, wooden drawers here and wooden letters here.

Box play stickers

My kids would love these stickers to transform regular household box waste into a variety of playful items.

The stickers are made from 100% recycled material and are sold individually. I think they are a bit pricey starting from $US6.00 per sticker. I would have liked to see a bulk variety pack of stickers for different boxes at a reasonable price to purchase. But that doesn't stop me wanting them.


Available here.

Designer children's rooms

Oh I want to be a kid again. There is a lot of really cool designer stuff out there for children. I'm loving the loft beds and personalised bunk beds. Can you imagine how cool it would be to actually be allowed to write on your walls? I love the retro inspired kids rooms. A wishing tree would have been good for all those nightmares. My boy would love the car room with grass green carpet or some awesome robot wallpaper. For the kids who have everything what about a custom child-sized room with loft or child sized library with circular reading nooks....

Inside or outside, playing house now takes on designer lines. Whatever happened to the humble cubby house?

White rooms

 Living the white life

Sleep tight in white

Cooking white

Washed in white

I don't think you can really go wrong with white. Well children and white is probably not a great combination, but white with white and wood with white is simply stunning. Makes me want to rip up the carpet and paint the floor white, walls white and furniture white.
