knock on wood...

lulu has just received a big new batch of the ridiculously lovely wooden postcards from NightOwlPaperGoods in the states. Printed on eco-friendly sustainably harvested wood (of course), they are just about the nicest thing you could hope to write your messages to loved ones on, and are a little gift in themselves. Lots of prints, here are just a few...

Yes, the piggy bank has grown up and these lovely little money savers are called Enviro-Banks. From TinLid Designs, they are made from sustainably managed plantation timber, and TinLid uses non toxic chemical dyes, glues and 100% recycled cardboard in their very smart packaging. Available in elephant, panda, cow, kangaroo and koala (piggy is temporarily sold out), and at $29.95, they make a perfect present for little people (and big people too.)

apologies for the massive time lapse between postings - i will now be posting new lulu goodness every week - with so many gorgeous new things arriving all the time, theres no excuse not to share!

for all those looking for something a bit spesh for your mums, lulu is literally overflowing with lovely bits and pretty things. here are a few things i think your ma deserves...

how nice! a box of the loveliest sticky notes you will ever see. made from 100%recycled paper, there are 500 in a box - 100 each of 5 beautiful designs. theyre only $19.95, so theyre the perfect little addition to a present or a sweet stand alone gift for any lady of any age.
