The creative Brandy Angerbeck has made these wonderful pillow dolls. Besides being soft pillows and fun dolls they also function as beautiful decoration in the childrens room.

I love the way these Pillow Dolls have 4 different lines of fabric, each with a different background, and the motifs are drawn and silk-screened onto the fabrics in different ways.

The Pillow Dolls cost USD 40.00 and can be bought at Brandy Angerbeck’s site, LooseTooth.com. She also sells some art, cute rubber stamps and cards there.

Besides her webshop she also has a Cafe Press shop with lots and lots of different designs.

FredFlare has these fun umbrellas designed to look like characters dressed in raincoats and rain boots. There are seven different colors and characters to choose from; an orange and gold Buddhist monk, a blue and white bearded man and a turquoise, white and black Chinese woman, amongst others.

All the Rain Parade Mini Umbrellas cost USD 30.00 at FredFlare.

Chic Shops BABY is a free guide to great baby shops on the internet where stores don’t pay to be listed, but are chosen simply because they have great products or are remarkable in some way. So it’s not just another one of those guides where every twentieth shop is of great quality, but a guide where all shops are worth checking out.

It all started with the original site Chic Shops, which is a guide to chic and unique shopping sites for woman, and then Chic Shops BABY was created to give the same service to moms and families with babies.

Chic Shops BABY is a nicely designed site, which is easy to navigate making it a very practical tool when you’re on the lookout for cool things for babies or moms to be. The site also has a forum, and allows you to save your favourite stores and make reviews of the shops. Creating a free account gives you access to these features.

I love the way some creative minds uses worthless waste to create beautiful things. It’s like they take what you throw out one day, and sell it back to you the next day, only it looks fantastic when you buy it back! It’s ingenious!
