Valentines Day

Beautiful heart garland made by Alarna from Little Jane St. out of  vintage storybooks. Stunning and perfect for today.

Otto’s nursery

A few pictures from Otto’s nursery…

Some of his wall decorations have a book connection…

A Penguin poster…

My friend Lisa gave me these cards from Chronicle, and I framed four of them. They are hung next to Otto’s change table and he loves staring at the contrasting colours. Nice to think he is staring at such loving images too….

Board books don’t really belong on a shelf like this one but until Otto is ready to hold them himself, I like seeing them lined up like this. Rowan helps to choose some books from this shelf for us to read with Otto each night. Any of your favourites missing from our shelf??

The Wonder Book

The brilliant Amy K has done it again. Thanks to Children’s Illustration for the clip.

My beautiful book eating boy has just turned three and reveled in celebrations this week with a stamina that has been hard to keep up with.

I still have a fair way to go in terms of party organisation but I did manage to make some cute bunting for decoration out of some old Golden Books….

We have recently moved house and I found a great local OP shop that has a large collection of Golden Books all shelved together. They were in varing degrees of quality, some with sticky pages and others with scribble, so I didn’t feel to bad cutting them up for flags. As Golden Books are all pretty much the same size and format they are very easy to cut from one template and then I glued them onto some yellow ric rac.

We also had Ned’s favourite food – popcorn in these gorgeous bags I ordered from Etsy seller HeyYoYo

And of course he did get some fabulous books which I will tell all about soon.
