Tanie from Vancouver turned an empty wall of her home into a beautiful woodland themed sitting room for the kids she looks after in her daycare. The deep brown chairs, the mushroom table and the fabulous tree book storage all look amazing, but the murals just completely make this space. I especially love that they’re on canvas so they can move if Tanie ever decides to move home. It looks like such a magical space to curl up with a book.

See the whole room, with paint chips and detail shots at Cupcake Wishes and Unicorn Dreams. Don’t forget to check out the beautiful deer that Tanie’s daughter, Symphony, drew that inspired the entire look.

Itti Bitti nappies are having an awesome sale, with 20% off their value packs and 25% off everything else in store! It started at midnight (nine hours ago) and will run for 24 hours. Get in quick as stocks are already getting low.

Ittis are the only nappy I use now with the boys, they work great and the large size fits both my 18 month old and my almost 3 year old. I just ordered one of their 12 AIO packs for the new bub at saved $60 on the normal price and will save even more in not having to buy disposables.

Their trial packs are an awesome way to test the waters if you’re new to cloth nappies. It can definitely be intimidating looking at all the different designs and types of nappies, so buying a couple of trial packs from different brands is a great way to get started.

If you need any advice or information about using cloth nappies, NappyAddicts.com.au is a great place to start.

Manufacturers are answering our requests for toys that adults love to look at as much as their children love to play with, and with the amazing range of wooden toys we’re now spoiled for choice.

Take a peek under the jump to see some of my favourite wooden toys currently available for bubs ranging from newborn to five years old.
