These personalized prints by Wee Society are quite charming. Choose from 26 alphabetized characters who each hide one special letter, and personalize with your child’s name and an optional silly (or slightly more serious) statement.
Zen Pen
Zen Pen is a storage unit for pens that also holds paper clips with the hidden magnets below the bamboo surface. Lovely.

How sassy are these Mini & Maximus Kids Pants?
New Tattly Packaging
Team Tattly is quite excited about today’s launch of our brandnew set packaging. Our 12 sets now come in a visual sleeve, printed on beautiful Mohawk paper. Each set contains 8 Tattly (all made in the US) and retails at $15. The photos are by our amazing photographer Julia Robbs.
I am so incredibly proud of my hardworking team. Without them Tattly would never be what it is today! Please allow me to give my team a virtual-blog-ovation: Yay for Rusty, Bekka, Yoko, Julia, Mary and Jen!
Check out our 12 sets!

Leather Mouse Pad
I admit I am not big on Mouse Pads but this one, by Freshly Picked might convince me otherwise. Susan was so generous to give me one at Alt Summit a few weeks ago and I love it. They’re handmade and come in neon yellow, neon pink/red, neon purple, gold, white and charcoal.
Also, if you have little ones, check out the Freshly Picked Moccasins.
Bubble Backpack
The Bubble Backpack by MadPax makes me want to be a kid again! Ella is starting first grade next week and I tried to convince her that this backpack would make an awesome school bag. Unfortunately she doesn’t agree.
But, it comes in grown-up size as well. Hmm….
Geometric Pendants
I found these Geometric Pendants on Etsy, they are ready to be painted! Sounds like a fun art project I can do with my six year old. #wishlisted
Geometry Set Jotters
These are quite stylish notebooks. Each 50 page book has a patterned cover and is bound in a foiled paper jacket and comes with plain white pages.

Din Din Stainless Platter
This stainless steel platter made me chuckle. Obviously made for kids, but, honestly I want to use it for myself.
Piggy Bank Fritz
Piggy Bank Fritz keeps you focused on what you’re saving for. Love this approach and of course, the minimalist nature of the design. Hat tip to Markus Gläser and Jan Eilts. #wishlisted

Knitted Storage Bins
Love these 100% cotton knitted storage bins. Tame the toys!
Ostrich Pouf
This Ostrich Pouf is an explosion of glamour, according to the band.do ladies. I just met them. They are fabulous, and they got style. So much style!
Green Eats Plates
Green is a company I have written about before and admire. (My son loves the firetruck) I recently discovered their Green Eats Plates and couldn’t help but buying two. My daughter was delighted to use it for the first time tonight and fully approves. Green Eats Plates are made in the USA from 100% food-safe recycled plastic milk containers. Two thumbs up.
OXO Booster Seat
I just randomly stumbled upon this Booster seat by OXO. I have no idea if it is any good, but man, it’s a sweet looking booster seat. Once Tilo (2) is over his highchair, which will be soon, I’ll definitely consider this one. Has anyone tried it? Thoughts?
Micuna Ovo High Chair
This High Chair by Micuna is a beauty. (I admit, that our $20 IKEA high chair works perfectly fine, but this one, I would actually enjoy looking at.)
Inflatable Bedrail
Tilo, our two year old, suddenly decided to refuse sleeping in his crib. We just put a mattress on the floor and called it the ‘big boy bed’. He is in heaven. Only problem, he’s been rolling off it at night. But no longer, because I got one of these inflatable bed rails and it works! It ships with a small pump, inflates in 30 seconds. Simply put it underneath the fitted sheet and boom you’re done. Child secured.
The best part about it, it folds down to nothing so you can take it with you when you’re on the road. (The packaging is a bit misleading, there’s only one rail in the box, not two.)
Baby Mermaid Tale
This handmade mermaid baby sleeping bag by the Miniature Knit Shop made me laugh.
DIY Pompoms
One of my favorite newsletters, by far, is the one by Mini Eco. This tutorial made me have major flashbacks of the countless pompoms I made as a kid in Switzerland. Red pompoms were my specialty! (Of course!) I wish Etsy would have been around back then, I could have dabbled in entrepreneurship early on!
So, here you go, learn how to make a pompom!
Piggy Bank Cardboard
This Piggy Bank is made out of cardboard and probably one of the most adorable things I have seen in a while. The industrial design was made by Andreu Carulla, the graphic design by Canseixanta Studio and illustration-collage by Txell Darne.
Tube Toys
Tube Toy’s convertible packaging transforms into the toy itself, reducing waste to a single piece of recyclable paper. Love this.
(Thank you Rusty)
Kajütenbett
This modular bunk bed called Kajüttenbett made me look. I love multifunctional kids furniture that can adapt to your changing needs. It’s a design by Swiss Roland Jaggi and available over at Refurnished.ch.
Also, for all you grown-ups that like the idea of a minimal bunk bed, check out this one.
(Thank you Thierry)
Bucky Bars
After Bucky Balls and Cubes come Bucky Bars. YES!
