button love
so our friend buzz..cool name eh, has a fab shop next door to us and she just got in a brand spanking new collection of buttons that made me drool some dribble…

and I’m not sure what to do with them just yet, but i know that i shall be doing something..i love the little pencil ones..her shop is called all the fun of the fair and these buttons are just a tiny part of what can be found..check out the website for more details and images..but for now im just gonna sit and stare at these…

oh and i have been busy making some more accidents for the shop..maybe i should put some buttons on these bad boys..but then again..buttons and little kids…maybe not ?

some urban craft stars
so kingly court often has pop up shops that take place within the empty units that normally just sit with a bit ‘to let’ sign in the window, but this week opened such a shop and its called urban crat stars and is full of independant designers work, from decoupaged bowls and furniture to vintage fabric cushions and hand printed tea towels.

the shop has clothing for babies and adults and original artworks that are all priced very reasonably…maybe too reasonably ?..

the shop is open until the 31st august and is well worth a visit to see original lovely things….check out their blog here for more info and updates.

arty and bella

so this week in the shop we are delighted to welcome the designs of arty and bella, a brand spanking new collection of, hand made hair treats and accessories for discerning tots and stylish girls of all ages, (i stole that last sentence from the website…shhh dont tell anyone)

the collection was strated when the designer…bellas mum, could not find any nice hair clips for bella, so she unleashed her creative talents and made these herself, and after getting requests from other mums a small business was born, and here are the results, some lovely little things, made with love.
