The Hand That Rocks The Cradle

What’s better than a funky and stylish cradle? A funky and stylish cradle that comes with a connecting rocking chair, and also turns into a rocking horse. Leather straps join the cradle and chair, so you can rock the cradle as you rock. Then when baby is too big for a cradle you can turn it into a rocking horse. I don’t think it can get any better!

Baby’s achievements

I admit I loved collecting badges at Brownies and Girl Guides, so I immediately had a chuckle when I saw these baby merit badges (again from Twisted Twee who always make me laugh). I think my daughter qualifies for the whole set!

Talk to the hand

Until I had a baby I practically never took photographs, but now my iPhoto library is full of photos of my daughter. I found this set from Twisted Twee, and I would be tempted to dress my little one in it before she goes to Grandmas!

Mothers Market

I recently went along to a local Mothers Market, and I have to say I was impressed with the talent and creativity, and unfortunately (or perhaps fortunately) for me I had accidently left my wallet at home, and my spending was thus curbed! I did manage to borrow some money off a friend and came away with the cutest plush owl.

Check out some of the talent and most stall holders either have online sales, or you could email for more details…

Gorgeous dresses that I salivated over from Loz & Dinny:

Baby Hoot had stunning blankets, and this cute little owl with ribbon tags on the bottom. It has become Tallulah’s favourite bedtime toy!

Miss Haidee had the cutest swimwear for both mums, bubs and kids, as well as teeny maxi dresses straight out of woodstock (yes I salivated over these as well!)

Cherish had beautiful emroidered and patchwork quilts, cute clothing and the ultimate santa sacks!

Dick & Dora featured acrylic brooches and funky christmas decorations:

There were many more worthy stallholders, featuring all manner of things from christmas cookies, to cards, homewares, photography, hair accessories, toys etc. I will definitely be keeping my ear to the ground for the next one!
