We Love Daisy Lane!

I think everyone is well aware of my soft spot for all things vintage

– especially when it comes to children’s illustrations.

When l found out that Lark was launching a new range based on
vintage illustrations from the 60’s l was thrilled and quickly endeavoured
to find out how to get my hands on some of this gorgeous range.

Let me introduce to you Daisy Lane.




Daisy Lane is based on a batch of vintage greeting cards that
Allison found at the Daylesford Bazaar (one of our favourite
shopping haunts when we vist the country!)




These gorgeous cards were originally illustrated by Sue Adams.




Sue was a greeting card artist for Phil Taylor Cards in Sydney
from the 1960s tothe 1980s, so taking inspiration from
Sue's illustrations Allison created Daisy Lane.



This beautifully designed playful range has it all!
From Wall posters to Letter Writing Sets and of course my personal
favourite – Swaps Cards complete with album.
The Daisy Lane range will eventually grow into a whole
collection of sweet gifts from bubble bath to secret diaries.
All the lovely things we loved from childhood – especially the secret dairies.



Daisy Lane is 100% Australian made and can be found online at the Lark website.

Autumn Weekend

What a magnificent weekend we had!

l hope you had a fabulous one too.

We caught up with friends for dinner, lunched with family
and had a little trip to the country side.

l adore Daylesford, especially this time of year with all the trees changing.

The colours are amazing.

We had a bit of retail therapy at the Daylesford Market and
popped into Lark's newly renovated store.

Hey Bambini are in for a busy week.
We have two new cafes to add to the site, along with a truck load
of emails to read and new cafes to visit.

Just as well we got all that country air on the weekend.

Enjoy your week.

A week of fun fun fun!

What a week!

We went to 2 new cafes in the West and cant wait to add them to the site.

Watch out for our reviews on Pampered Mummies and Pludo.

We also managed to get out of town - a few times actually.

Jan Juc, Ballarat and Daylesford were on our list and all were LOVELY

Our favourite was Daylesford where we had the absolute pleasure of meeting Allison from Lark.

We had a short stop-over in her delightfully inspiring shop.

A must if you're passing through Daylesford.

Check out our lovely snaps.



Also we popped into the city and visited "The Toy Box" exhibition at the City Museum.

For a small fee of $5 you can step back in time and view a small display of toys from the 1940's and 50's.

Everything from toy trains, pedal cars and vintage dolls.

Unfortunately we couldn't take any photos but believe me when l say it's worth a visit if you love everything vintage.

"Pheww!" - told you we had a busy week.
