Carry Me Home

Hi everyone , We had some new things in the shop this week that I wanted to show you,
beautiful vintage inspired dress’s and shirt’s. The fabric is to die for roses,butterfly’s and mermaids for the girls and cowboys and pirates for the boys.
The dress’s have frills on the little cap sleeves and round the bottom hem,and to complete the look a matching bit that covers the nappy,too cute,I think they would be be perfect for a special occassion,a christening,birthday or wedding or just a lovely summers day! The dress’s are 100% cotton and come in newborn to 12-18 months .
Now I am always on the look out for cute, but cool things for boy’s as I know they are harder to find than girls.Well I think these shirts hit the nail on the head, I’ve been teaming them with jeans and a tank-top.. the cowboy and pirate prints are both classic, yet trendy.. the shirts are 100% cotton and come in sizes 0-3 months to 3-4 years.

so here at carry me home we are not just full of toys and clothes, we have some lovely gifts that are perfect for baby showers and birthday presents,..I’m sure like us you often have no idea what to give a little one as a gift..so why not give them something more as a keepsake or a decorative item that they wont grow out of after a few months and that can be used in their rooms for years to come.
….so one of our best sellers is these l,e,d mobile lights that we have in single elephants, angels and moons, these hang from a small battery pack and slowly change colour, they are brilliant for illuminating a dark corner and are suitable for checking upon sleeping babies as they glow quite bright…these are also available as hanging mobiles with 3 of each design hanging at slightly different heights..see the web for more images.

we also have cute little photo albums that allow you to document the first months of a new born baby with space for names, age and place of birth, these are also on the website along with these fab wooden soldier skittles, we actually get more adults buying these for there own amusement…so come to carry me home for any gifts..you will be amazed at what we have.

sometimes words just dont do justice to describe an item..you have to see it, feel it and use it, and this is no more true than with these unique finger puppets. we are sure they will almost sell themselves and we know you all will love them. they are in the shop now and will be on the website soon.

its Sunday April 11th and today in London 35.000 crazy fools are running the marathon..and as its raining here today i say rather them than me, but just to get in the mood i wanted to show you all these gym shoe socks we have, perfect for little babies aged 0-9 months and presented in a box to keep your treasures in…

all the new mothers that come in the shop always love them and lots of people have been buying them for baby showers…they are available in the shop

so this week at carry me home we have had 2 big deliveries and we can now not really see the floor for boxes of unique goodies all stacked up everywhere..now we are not a massive department store with storage places..we are a small independent boutique with only a tiny room at the back which doubles as office/kitchen/slash postage room/warehouse/meeting room/design studio/place where Steven can make a mess. so we have to always think of nice ways to display things..especially the toys that came in this week..the box they arrived in was bigger than me and finding homes for the many monkeys, cats, owls and giraffes is a job we never really enjoy….

but look…don’t they make the place look fab..and if its for a christening gift or for a baby shower, these toys never fail to raise a smile… babies love these toys and how soft they and new mothers can be assured they are safe for all ages. we have had many adults buying them for themselves..they dont even pretend to be buying them for children… and who can blame them.

so its Sunday April the 6th…and its snowing outside…how is that possible ?..its surely meant to be sunny and getting warmer, and the flowers are meant to be blooming…aren’t they ?…anyway so its been a while since our last blog post…and i just wanted to update you all with some new images ..


with summer just around the corner..hopefully, the shop is starting to burst with new things and exciting packages are arriving almost daily..we are waiting for a new delivery of toys, and we cant wait to see them..
