Etsy Finds: Spring Greens

Spun Cotton Bunny Rabbit Ornament

Antique German Painted Bisque Doll

Vintage Wooden Push Car

Have you had your daily greens?

Inspiration: Family C

This looks fun, don't you think?

Family C, written by Pep Bruno and illustrated by Mariona Cabassa is the story of a family who love the circus and who find that it adds so much colour to their lives. Published by the excellent Kalandraka, it won the 3rd Annual International Compostela Prize for Picture Books in 2010.

I think many of you will enjoy browsing Mariona Cabassa's portfolio, if you're not already acquainted with her illustrations. I found her thanks to Caos, a cool Barcelona-based online magazine for trendy parents. If you hop over there to read their February issue, just out today, you will find a short article on the things Dominique and I love to do with our three children in Montpellier. Spanish dicos at the ready, uno dos, tres...

Spring is in the Air

I have a spring in my step today..

The sun is shining and I've been enjoying spending some time outside in the garden, dreaming of the warm months to come.

I found these three 1930-40s wooden figurines / miniature toys on etsy this morning, aren't they lovely? I love the little blue boxes, they reminded me of my Abbatt Toy snap cards.

Sweet, Spring-like and inspiring, hope you're smiling too...
