OPEN FOR BUSINESS

Yes. you have guessed it, we are finally there. On Thursday afternoon last week we flung open the cyber doors on our new interiors collection and website. And may I say, I love it! Tish over at artish, has done a super job with our new look and I think it is safe to say, she is now sick of the sight and sound of me. It was a busy and frantic lead up to going live that's for sure!

Our new website is more simple and chic than ever (if you ask me). I love the new colour scheme and don't think I'll ever get tired of the beautiful new icons. Perfect in their simplicity (this is the launch post, so I'm allowed to rave a bit aren't I?!), I can't stop going to our home page to look at them. Now more than ever, we are dedicated to keeping our collection fresh and exciting and will be consistently adding new pieces to it.

We plan to bring you even more payment options in the not-too-distant-future as we want to be able to offer you a simplified direct deposit option and more credit card options. As well as that, we want to be able to tailor shipping rates specifically to your area if not postcode! In the meantime, Paypal continues to serve us well and we will certainly continue to offer it as the excellent option it is as well. (I know Paypal is my preferred payment method when shopping online).

But on to the fun stuff...our new products! Too many to talk about all at once so I'll start with a new favourite, the Bedtime Bus Roll Poster. "I just 'yuv it!", as my three year old nephew says when he loves something. It has to be the sweetest way ever to capture the all important bedtime routine, fitting that it comes to us from My Sweet Prints. Inspired by the vintage bus roll posters it is too delightful. Printed on 160gsm archival and chlorine free paper, this one is a keeper. The loveliest thing about is you can customise it to your own routine, mind you the thought of that is too overwhelming and you're a procrastinating perfectionist like me, our standard print is perfect. We are currently selling the print unframed but a framed option will soon be available too.

On that note, the cuppa in my bedtime routine is calling out to me so I am off. Sweet dreams everyone.

Not long now

Well, I have been ridiculously absent but I like to tell myself it's all for a good cause. We have been working hard on launching our new interiors based collection and website and are happy to announce we are only days away now!

Rather exciting news

Thought it was time to tell you all that over the next few months we are refocusing the P&P collection to concentrate specifically on children's interiors. I'm so excited for the new focus as this is the part of our collection that I love the most and have the biggest thrill sourcing. We're also going to be carrying a small niche collection for grown-ups rooms. A new website will launched in a few months time and I couldn't be more eager (here's hoping that my multi-talented pal Tish is equally excited about the prospect as she's the graphics design gal!).

Naturally all of the lovely items currently in the room decor category, as well some of our special toys that we know look lovely on shelves or propped on the end of beds, will continue to be available as they are exactly the type of beautiful things we would like to find more of.

Of course with the new direction comes the news that MOST of our other toys, books, clothes & accessories won't be stocked again so it's a good idea to check out this icon throughout our website if you want to grab something that won't be back! Of course I'll blog about the items in each category that are leaving our cyber-shelves for good.
