Good Morning! Today I am taking you on a boho journey. I think it is a great way to start a new week and when I discovered this etsy shop last week I was smitten straight away.
Boho Baby Heaven was founded by Mariann & Inez, a mother-daughter duo based in Debrecen, Hungary.
Their creative adventure really took off when Inez became pregnant with her son, Milán, almost 6 years ago.
Inez was never a fan of dinosaurs, robots and cars for little boys and could hardly find things that she really liked in the shops.
Together with her Mum they started to gather ideas for Milán’s nursery and got amazing feedback from their friends.
This led them to consider the opening of an Etsy shop in 2013…
Only 10 more days and our little Joséphine will turn two. Birthday preparations are in full swing {Leonor will turn 5 just a week later so we are having a very cheerful month here in the Paul & Paula house} and one gift arrived a little early and was already very well received.
The lovely people behind Stadtlandkind were so sweet to send Joséphine her first bike! A beautiful red pedal-less two wheeler from Banwood for the cheeky lady. With a matching helmet for safety and the perfect look.
Banwood is a family-owned Berlin-based company specializing in bicycles for children up to age 5. Their core values are safety, high quality and timeless design.
Since daddy assembled it {you probably witnessed it in my Insta-Stories} Joséphine is looking after her cute bike like a star. Making sure it is on the right spot and remembering everyone that is ‘mina” {hers}. She is very proud to bring her own means of transport to the park now…
And with the cool retro look we {parents} love it too!
This ‘First Go’ Balance Bike is safe, durable and it supports your child’s development by taking advantage of the child’s own abilities to move forward by using his/her own balance and body.
It is designed with a classic child-friendly frame and height-adjustable saddle and handlebars for easy individual customization. The front wicker basket {love it!!!} is included and a good spot to bring essential items like a water bottle or to keep all the stones and sticks you collect during your outing.
Some facts:
* Steel frame
* Minimal seat height 40cm
* Maximum seat height 50 cm
* Adjustable leather handlebar from 50 to 59 cm
* Ergonomic and comfortable seat
* Wicker basket & bell
* 12″ wheels
* Weight: 4.5 Kg
And: Buy one. Plant one.
You buy a bike and Banwood will give a donation to OneTreePlanted, on your behalf. The organization will then use their expertise to decide the best possible location for the tree you have just bought and make sure it grows.
For every single tree we plant, we can make a difference by lowering the carbon dioxide levels from the planet’s atmosphere. This in turn slows the Greenhouse Effect, and also provides us with enough fresh air to breathe.
Perfect bike for little people with a good cause and look. What is not to like?
The A/W 2017 collection is called Fruiticana and you can dream yourself away to a tropical paradise with the sound of the soaring ocean in the background.
Create an exotic atmosphere with juicy fruits and fish fresh with pillows, blankets or mobiles. The knitted fruits and fish double as both cushions and sweet, fluffy toys. Stuffed with the vibrant colors and bustling atmosphere of a market, the items hold hours of playtime with their rich embroidered surface with shimmering gold and silver detailing.
I think those blankets are the bomb and I can hardly decide on a favorite. The mint/green combo of the pear is beautiful, the pineapple uber cool and the strawberry had me going all ‘oooooohhhh’ and ‘hmmmmmm’ during the fair already.
It is such a happy yet very chic and clean collection. Just the perfect combination of sweet and cool.
The fish – oh the fish. They will look genius on your sofa too. Or be creative and build an aquarium qith your kids… just for t hose knitted fish. Hours of fun!
Whenever I share a picture of our playroom on Instagram {here or here for example} the feedback is always really good, interested and often I get lots of questions.
So I thought it is time to share a little more about playrooms. Ours came together by accident. More or less. It started to be a bedroom when we moved in. But the kids preferred to sleep with a sibling {or us} and the bed in there stayed empty. After a while we moved it and VOILA – the playroom was born.
It is definitely one of the most used rooms {together with the kitchen} in our house however I learned and saw at friends houses – is the playroom not close to where everything happens and where you are, it is not used that much. Ours is connected to the kitchen and it is perfect.
How you decorate and fill your playroom is of course up to you. A reading nook or even a small sofa or a good armchair are perfect for quieter moments. A table is a must for jigsaws, board games and and and…
We have a very long hallway next to the playroom and the table is there most of the times {we just moved it in the playroom actually, I like to change and try new set ups}.
Online you can find lots of inspiration and objects on Flinders for example – little furniture and great decor articles to personalize your space.
Here are 5 inspiring playrooms that I would like to share with you and to give you some ideas:

Love the dollhouse used as a shelf, the cute reading corner with the books on display and the mirror. Little people find themselves very interesting and this is a brilliant idea.
via
Very organized and such a happy space, don’t you think? Love the rug and the big table for lots of crating fun and creative moments!
via
Good storage solutions are essential and of course it depends on your house what is possible. I love built-in shelves and I like this little bench on the wall.
via
Probably the most used item is a good table for kids. Drawing, crafting, reading and and and….

Another fabulous idea – spots. Wall decals. You can take them off easily once you get bored of them or your kids change interest {grow up!}. That sofa is awesome and such a great solution for a room under the roof.
