Carry Me Home - Unique Baby Gifts

so who is the fairest of them all……… well, you are of course, especially when looking in this super cool new heart shaped mirror we have just got in the shop. and the best part is that they can be personalised with any name you choose…. from snow white to, well, erm…bob ?… who said boys cant have names on heart shaped mirrors….not us ? or left plain for the simple approach. these will make lovely christening gifts and extra special birthday greetings. they are now on the web and can be seen in the shop now…

Well I made it … and don’t tell anyone but actually quite liked it ..though I may be investing in some padded short’s !… ooo ahhh    (spinning that is )
It’s time in the shop for me to think of some new products to buy for the shop, so I’m off to the trade show bubble

It originated in new york and it’s now in in it’s second year here in london,I’ve already been inundated by new companies sending me emails inviting me to come look at there new collection’s .I actually love choosing new things for the shop , finding something different that will fit in with all the things we already have at the shop.

one of the companies is Baby Bloch tiny little leather ballet pumps

It’s funny that they should contact me today as they were just featured on DailyCandy, Daily Candy is a blog I have recently come across, it has tips for cities all over the world so you can subscribe to london/kids for instance.For your daily fix of those essential things you know you need to know.. new produts ,places to eat,books to read,things to entertain the kids. and more inpotantly it all looks lovely and good enough to eat even!

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.

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..
