The Colours




Hey, It's Monday!
Nothing like a bit - or a lot - of colour to kick off the week.

I have a feeling these wonderful handcrafted colour men by South African designer Renée Roussouw will make you smile. Bright and cheerful, painted with eco non-toxic paint & matte vanish, these little chaps are the perfect size for little hands to clutch, and would definitely add a quirky touch to any room.

You can read more about Renée's wooden figurine project here and even watch a fun video she made to promote her collection.

Dinos, Bugs & Butterflies




Will you just take a look at those dinosaurs! Cute with a capital C!
Biome Lifestyle's handembroidered cushions for boys and girls are fun, colourful and eco-friendly, made under fair trade conditions in South Africa. 100% linen and cotton, sustainable and stylish, Biome Lifestyle " is a small company, trying to do the right thing". Looks spot on to me!
