Build a kid's half-term garden den...

With the sun finally shining and the kids on their half-term holiday, it's a great time to get them out in the garden to burn off some energy....
The Eden Project has a great idea for creating a simple garden den....a kid's Summer play essential.

Delightful kid's room art on Etsy

I'm meant to be looking for pictures of monkeys for a young boy's new bedroom...but you try visiting the Etsy website and not getting wonderfully side-tracked...!

Here are three beautifully illustrators to get you started...

Amelia lives in Poland and paints not only these lovely birds, but dogs and bunnies too....

And then there's Corella Design...with illustrations by Donna McKenzie in the US...

New Spring fashion colour....Yellow!

Have you seen all the yellow fashion accessories lately...I think my neighbour has bought most of them...court shoes, clutch bag, belts and even nail varnish!

So what about 'accessorizing' your home with a touch of zing?

Oh! to live in Maileg-land...

Phew...it's been a busy week!
I made it to the big gift fair at Earls Court on Sunday...despite the best efforts of the London underground trying to prevent me....but didn't make it to the Mid-century show at Lords Cricket Ground...again, down to tube train disruptions!
Ah well, there's always December!

But my day was 'made up' when I saw the Maileg stand...and I couldn't resist putting in an order...so look out for new stuff on the website soon.

What an adorably cute feel a few of these bunnies make to a kid's room...

And my excuses for not blogging regularly lately...?

Well that's down to good old shift-work I'm afraid....working as a police officer has it's good points, but working unsocial hours is certainly not one of them! I hope things will settle down again soon and I can get back to some more blogging....
