Going Gaga Over - Trunki (update)

 

Fresh from the hive and boasting the best stripes in the colony is Bernard the Bee Trunki! Made to the same high standard as the Terrance and Trixie Trunki but with two carry handles.

Bernard is flying in this Easter, pre order your Limited Edition Bernard from Metro Mum now. He arrives from the hive at the end of April.

Bernard the Bee Trunki is the ultimate travel companion for budding adventurers and too cute to resist.  Wave goodbye to tiring travel, tears and tantrums with a boredom busting Trunki, the world's first ride-on children's suitcase!



Designed for family holidays, children can pack, sit-on and ride their own luggage. Or when tiredness sets in, parent can tow their child along their suitcase.

The Trunki designers have truly thought of everything including a saddle for comfortable riding, horn grips for steering, stabilizers to prevent topples, a towing strap, luggage ID label, secure catches for luggage protection and a protective rubber rim to prevent little fingers getting trapped.



Trunki's light weight and durable design is hand luggage approved with generous space for toys, games, books and spare clothes. It's the ultimate travelling companion for any trip or sleepover!

Real Parties - Tyler's 5th Birthday (continued)

Last Saturday was Tyler's pirate party, I showed you the invitations here and the dessert table here. It was great to see all the kids in their costumes and so much fun was had by all. Thank you La Toriana for my boys pirate costumes. My sister and I made the pirate ship from cardboard and painted in about an hour using sample pots from the paint shop. I made the bunting from a friends left over fabric and the pirate flag. The pirate tree was inspired from one of my favorite prints from Bell & Boo available at Habitat Baby, see below.

Real Parties - Tyler's 5th Birthday

Yesterday was Tyler's pirate party, I will be posting the pirates next week but here is the dessert table. We had chocolate coated pretzels with blue edible glitter, pirate lego birthday cake, crabapple bakery recipe cupcakes, chocolate dipped shortbread, chocolate dipped kisses, wrapping paper covered pop tops, gold foil chocolate coins, chocolate stars meringue & popcorn. 

The chocolate dipped pretzels were a hit with the adults and the "pirate juice" was a winner with the crew.   

 

L'Oréal Melbourne Fashion Festival

  

Move over Nicola Finetti & Karen Walker! The mini-models have stolen the catwalk at LMFF, strutting their stuff in Moppit, Industrie Kids, Megan Park, Replica Revolution and Minihaha. The show was not without hiccups, but all is forgiven when your models are this cute.
