Abracadabra



I keep stumbling upon sweetness, hope you don't mind?
I came across Abracadabra's little brooches, pocket dolls and dashing men friends a couple of days ago and really like their faces and the designer's use of colour.
The shop is in French but you can pay online if you see anything that tickles your fancy.

Grant Design Collaborative

Felt Yard Stick

BullsEye Card

Trick and Treat Owl Pillowcase Bag

Coasters

Diamond Card Set

I really like the look of Grant Design Collaborative's products. They're smart, bright and stand out from the crowd. All of their cards are crying out for a frame and their huge pillowcase trick and treat owl and robot bags in black and white would be perfect for kids' laundry or storing toys.
As for the felt yard stick, well, it's just plain gorgeous...

Grant Design Collaborative is just one of many original and innovative companies selling their wares through this fine site

Felt + Wire

Enjoy!

Teresa Green Design


Teresa Cole has long been a favourite designer of mine. A lover of "elongated watering cans and apple ladders", Teresa's work marries beauty with functionality, often featuring utilitarian objects such as ladles and weighing scales inspired by her passion for antique kitchenallia. She sources all her fabrics within the UK and Ireland and uses only water-based inks for printing.
Although I love virtually everything that comes out of her old stable block (gorgeous girls' dresses, aprons, cushions, tea towels and table linen, you really must take a peek!), I've chosen to show you a few of her simple but beautiful greetings cards, which make a nice change for birthdays and would also look lovely framed, grouped together in a child's room.
C'mon, everyone likes egg and soldiers, don't they?



Big Ears



and incredibly sweet faces!
Keep your eye on Tiddlywinks' shop for more, one-of-a-kind softies inspired by children's drawings.


Spools

One-day-I'll-be-a-candle ones

Funny how spools have so much personality...
