Is there anything better than the sound of a baby laughing?!

Sunday, November 27th, 2011Christmas card time!
Saturday, November 26th, 2011It’s almost time to send out Christmas cards and if you have a new addition to the family this year perhaps you’re thinking of popping them on this year’s card? If so, how about the adorable idea of photographing them with fairy lights?! Now I’ve seen a few of these pictures on Pinterestfollowed by comments of how irresponsible it would be to let your child play with fairy lights. I think that’s a little harsh. As long as you don’t take your eyes off them long enough to chew through the wires, which you wouldn’t, then this would be fine. And it looks soooooo cute!

The above left is a professional photographer’s shot, the one on the right taken with a mobile phone; both insanely adorable! So don’t worry about having a fancy camera to give this a go :)
If you like the idea but are really worried about the lights then just photograph them in front…

Friday, November 25th, 2011I like nice design when it comes to, well, everything. But for this blog I’m liking nicely designed toys. The following transport-based toys are so chic and stylish they would make a cool present for the man in your life let alone your children!
Playforever is a London-based toy manufacturer headed by designer Julian Meagher. Julian studied industrial design in Johannesburg, South Africa but came to London in 1996 when he wanted to pursue a career in product design. After fattening up his portfolio working for some impressive clients Julian now has his own line of impressive toys.
The first Playforever toy was launched in 2005 and it’s sleek design was a perfect fit for Habitat who placed a large order. Julian has since gone on to develop a further two designs for the Playforever range; now consisting of the roadster, motorbike and plane…
Roadster
Motorbike
Plane
Those that believe these to be boys toys would be wrong. Many girls would be just as happy playing with these and if they needed any persuading than the hot pink plane should do it!

Would quite like one of them myself!
Long-lasting
I should add that that the Playforever title is there for a reason. The toys have been engineered to last and are tested to meet specific performance and endurance requirements. The toys are virtually indestructible and therefore could quite likely be played with forever!
