I love Sooki Baby - they keep everything simple and sweet - just the right amount of colour and design and never corny. (Their website is the perfect example!)
We were lucky enough to get some of their cute bedding as a Christening gift. Holly's Leander cot looks even cuter now!
I just spied this Alphabet Quilt of theirs on Baby's Got Style. I like.
One of our local cafes has purchased these Magis chairs for the kiddies. Let's just say they are a very popular addition...
Available from Questo Design.
These funky rechargable lights would have been great when we were doing lots of night-feeds! I ended up using a torch and flattening the batteries. Even these days, I'll use the light from my mobile phone to check on my sleeping beauty.
From The Hip Infant.
We're a little too mobile for these now, but in the early days, Grow Bags were fabulous.
Like a little personalised sleeping bag, they can't get kicked off, like blankets can....and they make dressing for bed so easy.
This one is availble from Urban Baby. Check out the variety of colours and fabrics available.
We've previously featured the Coco Baby Lounger - and got an overwhelming response - everyone agrees they are a great looking chair.
Well get ready folks, as they've just released a plexi version that is just as nice. Check it out at Bebe. Hello Red Rock! Coconut Blue! Harvest Orange! So cool.
I just found this list of the top ten safety gates, as selected by oh dee doh.
The gate featured above is apparently home-made. I'm impressed! Obviously a home-made gate doesn't come with the all important ASS stickers on it, but it looks fairly sturdy and professional. Better than some other DIY gates I've heard of.
I've said it before, but if I lived in the States and could get my hands on ducduc furniture, I would be very happy.
But - because they don't ship to Australia, and I cannot find it here, I can only look.
2Modern has a whole range of new ducduc products online now. This spotted daybed/storage combo caught my eye recently.
We are selling our unused bassinet on ebay, if anyone is interested....
Grannie bought this Emotion and Kids blanket for Holly when she was just a newborn. We still use it every day.
Available in white, blue or pink, from Baby Blue Eyes
...then it's good enough for me.
This Argington Eiffel Book Case is listed on 2Modern as children's storage. I can think of many spots in our place that this would look good!
Such a cool storage solution.
It must be 'chair week'! I seem to be noticing lots of cool toddler chairs.......
This Ikea PS Brum chair can be found, where else, but Ikea.
These cute wooden decals would a bit of eastern flavour to the nursery.
They can be purchased from Ten In The Bed. What a cool name for a shop??
The tough Queensland water restrictions won't affect this tree! (mainly because it is not yet able to shipped to Australia, but I still love it).
This post is a double-header, which means I could maybe take tomorrow off?
The Celery Lullaboo crib, featured above is funky enough on its own. Add the chalkboard end panel and you have a very smart, apartment-friendly product. Every kid should have access to chalk! So much fun, and little possibility of permanent damage if it gets out of control.
2Modern stock the Celery Lullaboo crib and the chalkboard end panel. They will ship to Australia - just contact them for a quote.
We looked at the Stokke Sleepi Cot - which reportedly was Brad and Angelina's cot of choice for Shiloh.
It's a great little cot - it can be converted from a bassinet right up to a toddler bed and beyond (forming 2 chairs eventually). Round cots are very pleasing to the eye, and are said to mimic the in-uetero environment for the newborn.
This one can be purchased from bebe. There is also a matching change table if you want to do the whole nursery.
My name is Katie Mackenzie. I have a gorgeous baby girl, and a husband who shares my appreciation for design. We hope to bring Holly up in a place that is full of fun, style and function. We have no room for clutter. And we are limited to products that are available to Australians. This blog summarises our efforts.
