From the PearsonMaron people, Knobs sells knobs. Made from cast aluminium in such things as dinosaurs, dogs, stars, cats, horses all in cool colours and very very nice.

A most brilliant way to transform a piece of furniture or a room.

Yay for knobs!

This has to be the coolest thing I’ve seen in ages.

It’s the mobile ideas factory from PearsonMaron who I’m now truly and utterly in love with. They also make cloud factories and heart factories.

What clever people !

I got one of these for Christmas – a snap it up organiser, which comes in my favourite of all things, rainbow colours. Such a great design store MoMA Store – I’d quite like to just move in.

I love clocks. Especially yellow ones. Even more especially pretty yellow teapot ones like this!

The best ever little felt mittens and boots for babies and children can be bought at Satch & Sol, a fair trade business that works with artisans worldwide, most notably in Mongolia.

They also have a blog here.

We just love Alison Tauber’s lovely screenprinted tops. In organic cotton, they all look so soft and pretty. Done by hand in her Brooklyn studio.

Just beautiful.

Wow, were we happy when Yvonne from yvestown sent us this link. An absolute treasure trove of good design for children.

We can definitely vouch for the fact the Svan Bouncer truly IS the next best thing to being in your arms – our daughter absolutely lived in hers. And aren’t these BPA-free bottles just the cutest things EVER. Into the shopping basket they go.

Our favourite thing at Spunky Sprout had to be the Nest Bassinet. Isn’t it just fabulous? Such a brilliant and lovely shop.

Go on, take a peek!

The online shop of artist Christopher David Ryan.
We’d been sent a link a long while ago to his solar system poster – a modern classic.

Prolific and brilliant, a good shop to keep going back to for more.

Josh’s felt bags and purses really caught our eye today. The media pocket in particular.

I think we’ll be nabbing a few of these in time for Christmas.
