Something for the boys!

Maybe these might be a little bit more suited to the little man!

Pretty pinks all in a row!

Here are just a few pairs of pretty girls pants that belong to the Summer range.

Most of the pant designs can be worn by the little boys too, but these 3 might just appeal a teeny bit more to the little girls!!

Is it too early to decorate for Christmas?

On Saturday I thought I might take myself to the Red Hill market for a little shop. It was a good idea until I saw the crowds of cars and people everywhere. But I kept walking (waddling in fact), eating truffles for lunch, and then on my way to the car (nearly in labour), I came across a piñata stand! I had to fight my way in there though, they were selling like hotcakes!  

Of course I had to buy one too!! They are made so beautifully and with so much detail. 

They say in Mexico, smashing open a piñata is a Christmas tradition, but I think I am just going to just keep him as a decoration - he's too colourful to smash!

Bright enough to eat!

I have been sewing frantically to get these little bits and bobs ready for the website and the markets. 

But to keep them safe from sticky hands, I put them in a case to protect - now I don't want to take them out!

Mmmmm, on second thoughts, maybe I could just buy him a new little case to play with!

(by the way, these are the birds, fish and butterflies to add to the necklaces and belts).
