Hello Rainbow

We had a whole lotta of fun this weekend making a thirtieth birthday cake for my little sis. Luckily her favourite character ever is the super cool Rainbow Brite and what with me being a fan of all things retro, she was the perfect subject to create in icing.

Fun it may be, but I won't be going into cake decorating any time soon, it's darn hard work! Not only for that reason... I ate about a pound of icing whilst doing it. And in case you didn't already know, that's never a good idea!

Psst. We're having a sale on wall art!

If you have a Lulabird clock adorning a wall in your home, then how about treating yourself to a wall art to match? After all, they are even better than half price at the moment. Pop over to lulabird.co.uk to pick up a lovely wall plaque for just £15.

Hurry, hurry!

A cute little Lulabird Christmas List

I am no Christmas present buying queen. Oh no, you won't find wrapped presents under my bed until at least the 24th December.

But I have started to think about writing Christmas lists and so, slipping into procrastinating mode, I created these cute little downloadable Christmas Wishlists. Use them to jot down the things you're longing for, or the things your children want (that could be long, I know!). Use them however you wish and for whoever and whatever you wish. But most of all, enjoy!

Now I really had better start writing those lists.

But perhaps I'll have a cup of tea first.

PS. To download, simply click on the image above to open larger image, right click, save the file to your computer and then print. You'll get the best quality print if you use good paper stock and a higher quality print setting.

LulaWhale in the Telegraph

So then, did anyone spot the LulaWhale in the Telegraph's Children's notebook on Saturday. Here he is. Ahh, isn't he sweet :)

P.S. I'm thinking those little boy's boiler suits next door are pretty cool too. Might have to get my boys one for when they're in the mood to get grubby in the garden!

A little pressie from Lulabird

We've created these adorable little bookplates for you to download and print at home. And they're completely free. Why? Just because we like you so much :)

Simply click on the image above, right click and save the file to your computer and then print. You'll get the best quality print if you use good paper stock and a higher quality print setting.

Then just cut out, write name, glue into your favourite books and enjoy forever more.

Look, I'm using them too. Here it is in my sons' favourite book...

Lulabird email crisis...

Oh, how ever did we cope without email?? Our email system has gone down today and we are rendered completely useless and in a state of utter panic. Makes you wonder how we ever got anything done before modern technology came along; we must have had to write things on paper and speak to people directly... shock, horror :)

If anyone should need to contact us in the meantime and can't seem to get an email through then please drop us a mail at lulabirddesign@hotmail.co.uk. We hope to be back with the modern world soon!!

Love sewing? Love birds?

We've just come across this cute bird box sewing kit at Clothkits. This kit makes four decorative birds and contains gingham, floral, polka dot and felt fabric as well as beads, buttons, stuffing and ribbon. The box can be turned into a home for the birds. Go create your own Lulabirds!

Time for a tea party!

The sun is out! Time for a tea party in the garden? We're loving this very pretty tea set made of tin, which comes with a fab retro style, pink suitcase.

We've just found these lovely (and free!) downloadable paper dolls by Sarah Jane via Bloesem kids. They're on the way to the printer as we speak!

Who can resist this super cute pinafore dress?

This Belle and Boo pinafore dress is extremely gorgeous! It's made from soft, dusky pink twill and has a Cheeky Boo bunny embroidered on the front. And it's comes in sizes from 12 months up to 4 years. Just perfect for the summer (when it eventually arrives!).

Cor! Toy vintage kitchen to die for...

I have that feeling of panic that I get when I find something absolutely fabulous but haven't yet found out what it is and where I can get one. Take a look at this vintage toy kitchen that I just stumbled across on flickr... it is AMAZING. My boys absolutely need one and I want a big one to match.

Now going to find out more. Please, please, please let these be available to buy!!

I found these on naralnas flickr photostream.

Easter debate: Dining table vs ipad. No contest.

I have eaten from the minute I woke up this morning. Total gluttony on my part... hot cross buns, chocolate bunnies, chocolate eggs, banana and chocolate cake. I must stop there, it's just too shameful. My boys must think me such a hypocrite having spent the day monitoring their chocolate intake, preaching about the unhealthy side effects of eating too much sugar whilst eating my second (uh hum... fourth) roll of rolos.

So anyway, thought I'd distract myself from the oodles of goodies that are surrounding me by looking on the wonderful world wide web for some delightful things that aren't made of chocolate.

I've had my eye out for a dining table for a while now. Want something round, a bit retro but I'm thinking modern retro rather than vintage. Have looked at a few sale rooms but nothing has come up that's quite right and I like the Ikea stockholm range but I begrudge paying that much for ikea... you know what I mean don't you?? Today, however, I think I found it.... next Easter I plan to eat my hot cross buns off this great table from Graham and Green that is now at the top of my 2010 wishlist.

I'd like that room too... lovely and bright. That's a big ask though I guess.

My husband, however, is mostly obsessing today about the launch of the apple ipad. It's progressed from a healthy passing interest to an 'I'm absolutely, definitely having one' in the past 24 hours. He did just show me a picture of the scrabble game which does look amazing (I'm a word game fiend, that's the geek coming out in me) but I'd rather have something to eat my dinner off.

Dining table or ipad... let the battle commence.

Mmm... rolos or flake??

Lulabird on Bambino Goodies

Lulabird have just had a wonderful write up on bambino goodies...

Take a look at http://www.bambinogoodies.co.uk/lulabird/

Out with the teddies...

We love buying things for our children that they love, but even better if we can enjoy looking at them too. These amigurumi animals would be a welcome addition our children's bedrooms.

And, have you ever seen such an eccentric and quirky looking stuffed toy as Geoffrey the lion?! He can be found in irene strange's Etsy shop... isn't he so cute?
