Spotted some wildlife at the Wye River Big 4 last week. We even saw a koala in a tree! Wye River is situated along the Great Ocean Road near Lorne, Victoria. It was great to see our koala friends, we have featured many koala's on our designs. Our Animal Friends Placemats have a lovely big koala on them.

Magazines arriving in the letterbox is a treat, 10 minutes alone with a drink flicking through one is a dream.

'There are many benefits to organic baby clothing (and bedding), and one of the main benefits is the softness of the fabric.

This is because organic cotton tends to have longer fibers and creates less friction. Babies' skin can be very sensitive, and softer fabrics will irritate their skin less. Another important feature of organic baby clothing (and bedding) is that it contains no formaldehyde. Chemicals such as these are sometimes used as finishing agents on fabric. The use of formaldehyde in clothing has been linked to asthma and rashes, so organic clothing is a better choice for those with sensitive skin. It is also believed that organic fibers help babies suffering from eczema, especially if the garments are worn at night.

For those of you that happened to watched The Block on TV last night, you might have noticed our Outer Space MOVEABLES wall stickers in Polly & Waz's kids room. If you didn't get a chance to see last nights episode, check out The Block Episode 2 online.

Mama's Dear  is a gorgeous new baby life-style retailer of ours in Hong Kong which is carrying many internationally renowned brands including Little Chipipi. Here are a couple of pics from their grand opening April 1. See their gallery for more pics.

A big part of Little Chipipi's designs feature dots!! That's because I love using dots within my illustrations. Dots and more dots are on our Organic Baby bed linen, Moveables wall stickers and Eco Greeting cards.

I quite like this poster for Play-Doh in the Communication Arts Design Annual 50. 'The project's aim is to demonstrate how Play-Doh has always played a part in helping children's imaginations take shape'
