Sleepykins // Olivia’s Magical Space

Post by Sally Lopez of Mini Styling.

I wanted to give Olivia a room of her own. I decided on retro inspired with antique items of my own childhood. The sand dollar wall piece used to hang in my grandparents’ house. I was fascinated with it as a kid; and so is Olivia. We designed her room around this old sentimental piece. We chose soft hues of dusty pink, white and beige and filled the space with girly pieces she loves. The Numero 74 canopy and bedding in dusty pink from Lidorworld, wooden toys from Little Wanna Haves, with the white wooden Nofred mouse chair were a perfect fit for her retro playful girly new room. I love it and most importantly, she loves it!

It’s Christmas!!! It’s finally here! I can’t tell you how excited we are. All of the organising and planning has finally come together and here we are enjoying one of the best days of the year. Seeing their happy little faces, what more could you ask for?… Well, perhaps not burning the Christmas Dinner would be a plus (fingers crossed). Hehe.

Here is a look at some of our favourite gifts and toys and of course Christmas outfits from this festive season. We hope you love them as much as we do.

We’d like to wish you all a very Merry Christmas!!

Craftykins // DIY Miniature Mid-Century Modern Dollhouse Coffee Table

March 4, 2015 By Sara Eslami, Contributor 2 Comments

I think that every mother who has a daughter must go through a stage where she dreams of decorating a dollhouse for her little one, right? Well, that’s definitely the case with me at least. I love decorating my own home but decorating a miniature home is 1000 times more fun. It can also get pretty pricey, especially when it comes to modern dollhouse furniture. I have chosen to make most of my furniture and this is one of the easiest I have done so far!

To make your mid-century hairpin leg coffee table, you will need:

1. A birch tag (found at most craft stores in the wood section)
2. Jumbo paper clips
3. Wood glue
4. Pliers
5. Screwdriver & one screw the same width as the paper clip
6. Marker
7. Wire cutters and a hammer

1. Mark where your legs will go with your marker and then screw a nail into each hole to create an opening to insert the table legs.

2. Open up the paper clips and cut them at the mark shown.

3. Bend the legs inward with the pliers so that the base is more narrow.

4. Open the legs again, and insert them into the holes you created with some wood glue. Tap them in with a hammer to secure.

I love how this turned out. Let’s just hope my two-year-old can appreciate it just as much!

DESIGNKINS // The Micuna Ovo high chair

April 25, 2014 By Kimbah 2 Comments

What caught my eye with The Micuna Ovo high chair is its Eames replica piece resemblance, it could just be me though but with its Eames Eiffel chair look and feel I immediately fell in love and envisioned it fitting perfectly in my household.

Made by Micuna, the Ovo high chair is more than just a stylish piece, it’s functional and practical. A distinguished element of the OVO are the elements made of solid beech-wood, provided from sustainable forest management – that provides great design and elegance. Another characteristic part of the high-chair is its round shaped ABS plastic tray – mobile and removable, with an edge to prevent liquids to overflow. This tray is easy to remove and you can clean it in the dish-washer. It gives you great freedom to use. The rounded shape and ergonomic of the high-chair has been designed to give a comfortable seat for the baby. Thanks to the moulded fabrication process the Ovo leads to features such as high quality, design, elegance, comfort, functionality and modernity.

Ovo has even taken care of the packaging on a level of elegance, versatility and convenience with it not just being packaging, it can be used as toy box, storage or for any other thing that you can imagine.

You can find the Ovo at AlexandAlexa staring at £279.00.

Featurekins // Wren and Rumor

When I was getting ready for baby Cruz to arrive one thing I knew I needed to stock up on was blankets. Not only are they always getting used or left at grandmas house they are also something you need ALL the time. From small walks in the park to the long late night drives…. we make sure we always bring a couple. I was first introduced to Wren & Rumor a couple months ago and I was super excited. Not only do they sell amazing personalized swaddle blankets but they also have custom printed fabrics and monogrammed stationery for your children that is so modern and different than you would find anywhere else! We are heads over heals in love with the Aztec blanket and the stars and stripes blanket. What is your favorite?

Check out all that Wren & Rumor have to offer here.
