Little Living, a divine online store offering everything you could want in children’s interiors, are now stocking the gorgeous Papershade Lanterns. Made in France, these paper lanterns make the perfect whimsical accessory to finish off a nursery, bedroom or playroom.


Choose to use them with or without lighting….a cord set can be bought without significant expense if you choose to operate the lanterns as a light. With several patterns to choose from, we love the way they look hanging in a group as a feature focal point.
Prices range from $39.95 to $54.95.

mini bulles

We”ve seen a definite change of seasons in Melbourne this week. Much cooler temperatures, considerable rain and even a little bit of fog. So the winter gear is definitely required now. We love the idea of these Gumboots to Paint from mini bulles, as a ‘Let’s Welcome Winter’ activity. As well as the boots, you get 6 paint tubes, paintbrushes and stencils (priced at $29.00 CA) so your little, or not so little one, can create their signature design.
