The Brown Trading Co. gold confetti tablecloths

I'm kind of obsessed with the Instagram photos of sisters concretehoney (Concrete + Honey) and Beebees80 (Beebees80) and their Mum karongreenway (Sugar Coated Events). It's a glorious sea of white, pastel and beautiful children and babies. And in this case, amazing Christmas table settings.

Well did that get your attention? How amazing is this show-stopping poster by Brisbane illustrator and designer Ella Mobbs for the upcoming BrisStyle Indie Markets.

Dudley Co amazing toddler ride ons

Hang on - a cool toy for the kids that ticks the boxes of the design-sensitive too?!? Dudley Co.'s Courtney Wall and her carpenter husband create these fantastic toddler ride-on scooters in Brisbane. Each piece is hand-crafted and screen-printed in Brisbane to suit one to four-year-olds. So great.

Dudley Co.'s ride ons are handmade in Brisbane using certified plywood, sealed with a water-based polish, and finished with solid rubber casters and water-based paints. The ride on is available in three designs, but as they are hand screen-printed, each is unique. They are tested by the couple's son and his friends who love them to bits. I can see why!

You can find Dudley Co.'s ride ons in the online store.

Ma and Grandy greeting cards

Oh I do love these graphic greeting cards from Brisbane designer Natala Stuetz of Ma and Grandy.

Named after Natala's grandparents who met in 1935 and were an example to their friends and family of old-fashioned romance, generosity and love. How cute are they!

I adore the colour combos and Helen Dardik-like style of Natala's work. Apart from the musings of love, there are some great options for Father's Day and birthday party season too.

You can find Ma and Grandy paper goods in the online store. Thank you Kim at eeni meeni miini moh for the heads up!

Bella and Lace nostalgic classic childrens' clothing

Packing a punch in the kids fashion market is new label Bella and Lace from Brisbane-based Kate Pearson. Inspired by her childhood clothes that her mother made and kept for her, Kate's signature look is sweet florals with denim and leather accents on a neutral base. The new collection starts from size 0 up to 6 years and footwear is available  from 18 - 31.

I love the combination of delicate florals with leather details in elbow patches and belts. The fringed suede moccasins slay me!

My favourite piece -  super-sweet cotton jersey-lined bomber jackets.

Break up the floral with every-day denim and a splash of colour with a cute dream-catcher necklace.

I'm also smitten with the butterfly sleeves  and layered ruffles on this floral dress.

The Bella and Lace "take me back to Tullamore" collection includes jackets, dresses, tops, pants, cardigans, vests and shoes for girls. You'll also find a selection of lovely handmade garlands and mobiles. Harking back to Kate's nostalgic roots, the collection was named after her grandparents' holiday house in the Blue Mountains.

It's all gorgeous and I congratulate Kate on the waves she is making with her designs.

  

You can find Bella and Lace in the online store as well as stockists across Australia and online.

eeni meeni miini moh and e3-M Spring Summer 2013-2014 launch

How can you choose? I am blown away by the new Spring Summer 13/14 collection from amazing Bondville sponsors eeni meeni miini moh® + e3-M®.

My eldest daughter is now almost six, so I opened the e3-M lookbook first (2-12 years) and it's by far the best collection yet for this age group. These are clothes that are hip but still let kids look and feel like kids. And you know how hard that is to find!

I am absolutely in love with the keyhole back dress with contrasting ribbon hem and tie. This is going to be a standard in our house this summer, in blackberry and pink, moon and peach, and vanilla and turmeric yellow ribbon combos.

 

eeni meeni miini moh (0-5 years) never fails to disappoint and this season is no exception with an explosion of gelato colours, preppy and sport looks, and divine dresses for girls.

The satin and tulle dress in vanilla and sorbet is ideal as a flower girl dress, for Christenings, Confirmations, Christmas and other special events.

I love the lilac and summery turmeric yellow this season on comfortable clothes for active kids that will take you from playdate to party.

The check shirt for all boys (sizes 0-12 years) is a stand-out with its' interchangeable and reversible mandarin collar.

Again the pyjamas and sleeping cocoons are a must-buy, and this season reveals an expanded mix-and-match collection for Enfant (0-18 months) that is beyond cute.

You can find new season eeni meeni miini moh and e3-M in the online store and stockists around Australia. Congrulations Libby and team on another amazing collection!

Raw Ceramics handmade screenprinted vessels

Brisbane-based ceramicist Freda and designer/screen-printer husband Aaron are the brains behind fun homewares label Raw Ceramics. Along with potters Anthony and Mandy, they create fun, vintage-inspired ceramics that make great gifts.

I'm all about the Dad's BBQ Pot For The Lot vessel for, well, anything. It's got me dreaming of pulled pork and ribs. The dog food bowls are brilliant, and I'd love a milk jug or two. The vintage-style graphics make these pieces great for the blokes too. In fact, this is a good one to keep up your sleeve for Father's Day which is just around the corner.

Each Raw Ceramics vessel is thrown on a wheel, fired, hand-glazed, screen-printed, and re-fired by the team in Brisbane. Love it.

You can find Raw Ceramics vessels, bowls, jugs, and dishes in the online store as well as stockists across Australia.
