Childhood....

Remember Elastics?!  My memories take me back to my school courtyard in the days where we were vying for the title of "Elastics champion of the universe!"  I think I ended by being about 4th in the courtyard that day.  Pretty good for a grade 5er....


There is a fabulous little Australian company bringing Elastics back and OMG their Elastics are mindblowingly gorgeous!!! You MUST check them out!


Why not give as a gorgeous gift along with one of our beautiful cards?  You'll be promoting a healthy lifestyle for your children and a healthier planet, all whilst supporting Australian made. xx

We heart Mathilda's Markets!

We heart Mathilda's Markets and we are soooooo excited because....

On Saturday 25th February, we will be showcasing our beautiful greeting cards and new gift tags at Mathilda's Market in Sydney!

This is a fabulous niche market that offers unique, stylish and affordable baby & kids goods that are lovingly handmade or of limited production. The retailers are handpicked to ensure an exciting pro...duct range. It's a kid's shopping heaven. Better yet, most of the retailers do not have a shop front, so you know you'll find something special, not available anywhere else.

Please come and see our stand at Mathilda’s Market from 9am to 1pm at
The Entertainment Quarter, Byron Kennedy Hall, 122 Lang Rd, Moore Park.

Entry is free.... With over 80 retailers, yummy food, kids’ entertainment Mathilda’s Market is one of Sydney’s best shopping destinations for the little ones.

We look forward to seeing you there! xx

A great cause....

We have been contacted by four fabulous women who have gotten together to organise a wonderful new and used Book and Baby market, February 18th in Berowra. All proceeds are to be donated to the Fred Hollows Foundation, who not only give those in need, eyesight, but also the opportunity to a "normal" life of purpose and participation in their communities. If you can get there, I urge you to check it out. xx
