The Collaborative – Autumn inspiration
The sun is rising a little bit later each morning and the leaves are turning into all shades of brown and burnt orange. Autumn is creeping up and slowly letting us get use to the cooler months approaching. I’m not a winter person at all but these in between seasons are really the prettiest months of the year. This inspired us to create a style session inspired by the colours of autumn. A feast for the eyes and such a warm and inviting colour scheme. We played around with the amazing products that the collaborators sent and came up with different visions of autumn! A few of our favourite products…

We have very exciting news! We have teamed up with Popsiebelle as their official South African online retailer. The Popsiebelle brand aims to create products to get your kids to explore their imagination and create creative stories that they imagine up. A few of my personal favourite products from their range are: The monster pillow and spray: My little boy old had terrible nightmares and fears of monsters so I grabbed the monster spray bottle that came with the monster pillow and we sprayed all of the monsters out of the house.

I did not want to bind the room with only one theme, I would like to have the option to tweak the room as he grows up, to match his personality and likes. I wanted a real boyish room since he was still in his nursery so I had a custom cross stitch piece made for him, inspired by the nursery rhyme “What are little boys made of?”.

Toy Storage
Your house used to be neat and tidy, AND then you had kids… without knowing it toys crept into every corner of your house. Some people find it easy to discard of toys easily, but when it is expensive toys that have not been damaged beyond repair I tend to keep them… and then there is another birthday and MORE toys come… Here are some options to make life a little less cluttered. Get the kids to help tidy up by playing a game or singing a tidy-up song. The odd threat to throw all the toys in the dustbin also works wonders sometimes. Happy Organising {Mariette”

Is it a book? Is it a toy? – Convertibles Books
I was recently looking for a gift for a one year old. I did not just want to buy a random toy, i wanted to get something meaningful that won’t just be chucked into a cupboard and forgotten about, I know what your thinking…. For a one year old…?! My daughter loves books so that is my top suggestion for somebody asking what to buy… So I also tend to look in the book isles rather than toys. I found the perfect gift; it’s not only a book, but also a car, pirate ship or train (there are more options abroad), and also folds out into a track to…
