The baby and kid’s range is especially developed for parents who want sophisticated design, locally produced, safe, certified products for their kids.
“We keep hearing from our customers that our stylish blankets are welcome additions to the household. The children’s blankets are allowed to lie around in the living room without annoying the aesthetics of the parents (and double nicely as a small blanket for cold feet after the kids have gone to bed).”
Valentina Albaek, the founder, created a wonderful world. The softest most beautiful blankets for the whole family {yes, you are lucky because Fabulous Goose also does BIG blankets… }.
In wonderful colours and patterns… true keepsakes!
… oh I love Saturday morning breakfasts… one of the best things… it’s the week end, it’s “clock free” {no checking the time because you need to be at school on time etc} and we have time to sit as long as we like and enjoy the first hours of the week end…
That is why I usually try to get some extra yummy things like fresh juice, strawberries, a little treat like banana bread and whatever else takes our fancy…

Last week end we even had “special guests” and the table was set with some fun animal plates & cups. The lovely Tanja from Kidzpiration {have a look, a super European distributor for lots of cool things for the little ones} asked me if we would like to try the cool range from Wee Gallery for IMM ceramics plus a few extra treats from Fabelab.
Let me say one thing: The kids L O V E D it. Especially Leonor with the fun staking set that consists of a bowl and a cup.
Those fun plates come in sets of two and are available as a Tiger, Cat & Bear and you can mix and match as you like… or better the kids… mine definitely thought this was super fun.
The stacking sets are super cool as well. The bowl is the head and the cup the body.
Everything is made from ceramic and is dishwasher/ microwave friendly. No plastic – hurray!
You can find them here.
Little Miss Joséphine and one of the cutest bibs ever called Dreamer. I like… we definitely still dream a little bit on Saturday mornings.
The mint coloured bunnies are lunch bags. Good for the environment and too cute in the backpack.
I am here to report on the 14th edition of Playtime Tokyo, which took place at the end of February at Belle Salle Shibuya. Over 230 brands were gathered to present their fall/winter 2016-17 collections and among them were even more labels from Japan than at the last edition! Other countries represented were: France, Italy, Spain, Denmark, UK, Ireland, Germany, Poland, Finland, USA, South Korea, China and Australia.
The theme of the season? MARVELOUS. Let me bring you for a tour at Playtime Tokyo!

Abi Loves Atelier goes from classic books story telling to 3D animation by BBMedia with graphic artist and writer Akiko Kawamura, who authored the bilingual (EN/JAP) series of books with Apollo the dog and Char the cat. The open space had a beautiful mural illustration on the Winter Wonderland theme.
● TREND SPACE 1: Frozen Landscape by Aurelie Mathigot
By far my favorite trend space, as it included a stunning embroidery work coupled with pieces of wood, ceramic and crochet. I found the textures and details very inspiring and poetic, I am sharing a few photos here below:
