Dwell Baby
create gorgeous contemporary graphic baby and children’s bedding and
linen goods. Incredibly stylish and coming in a beautiful soft palette of
colours, their modern designs are anything but twee. The Dwell Studio
collection starts from crib size (including Stokke sized), to regular single,
queen and king sized bedding.
They also have an extensive range of
accessories available in their prints – anything from wall art to hooded
towels and cushions. You can deck out the whole cot or bed in their linen
or just a few accessories to bring the room a more modern style.
Particularly great if you have a clean blank canvas for your nursery design,
they will certainly add a wow factor to a room.
Already very popular and established in the US with celebs
and mere mortals, the range is now a lot more accessible to us thanks to Luxury Labels who are
the Australian stockists. Go to their site, check out the entire Dwell
catalogue and start creating a stunning room for your baby. They have a
list of retail and
online stockists on their site to make purchasing a breeze.
I love mobiles. I can think of few things more relaxing than just enjoying a little piece and quiet when little one goes off to sleep than just lying back and watching the gently movement of a mobile as it catches the gently breeze....Little people love them for pretty much the same reason and it’s certainly a great tool to calm a restless baby down. Quilt Baby carry a gorgeous range of contemporary mobiles made of brightly coloured die-cut foam hand wired and hung from mono filament thread. Not limited to just a nursery, put them up in any part of the house that catches a light breeze. Available in two (orange and blue) colourways, the orange and chocolate colour combo will add a visual ‘pop’ to any room.
Along with modern mobile, take a look at their beautiful retro inspired onesies. Lovingly handcrafted with appliquéd animals, birds, trees, flowers, stars and fruits in vintage fabrics looking stunningly fresh and graphic against the 100% cotton white onesies, available in long (US$24) or short sleeved (US$18).
Mobiles cost US$46 and can be ordered on the Quilt Baby website. Many of the range is now availble in Australia at Jive Baby with bibs for $19.95 and onesies starting at $29.95.
Always on the lookout for contemporary mobiles, Wallter have now added to their existing range of interior products (we have previously featured their wall applications in September) with five very cool mobile designs.
Made of lightweight powder coated steel, they are all adjustable in terms of height and hang from an mounting placed to your ceiling. The Teardrop and Saucer mobiles would look particularly great in a room with high ceilings and hanging just low enough from the ground that little hands cannot reach– it offers great visual impact to a room. The Butterflies would be a pretty addition to any girls’ rooms.
Coming in either all white or in colour combos of Olive, Red, Blue and Orange, you can find one to best suit your decor with long and short styles available. Priced from US $70 at Wallter.
Blik decals are a favourite that we have featured previously. Offering a great way to decorate at minimum cost and maximum convenience. When you want to change the design, just peel off the decal and start again with a new design with no damage to your walls – especially great for renters! Constantly updating their range, Blik has recently added a great new decal set based on the very cool and stylish Threadless t-shirt designed by Ross Zietz.
99 Luftballons is just that, 99 red balloons – for those old enough to remember the hit song from the 80’s! So add some balloons to your child’s wall, tell them every day is a party and keep the smiles coming.
Available from Blik for US $45 with shipping available to Australia.
