The Green Cathedral and Blueys Retreat, Forster

How was everyone's weekend? I had a fantastic relaxing weekend away, without my husband or my children!!! Very Rare. I stayed at an amazing little beach town resort called "Blueys Retreat" near Forster, NSW. There are around 43 large luxurious houses in the resort surrounding the pool and spa, tennis court and Restaurant, which is where the reception was held. The houses have all the luxuries that you may not even have at home. Its only a short walk to local shops and beautiful baches. I had a ball and will definitely return soon with my family. And for any greenies or nature lovers that are looking to get married with nature look into "The Green Cathedral" at Forster, its unbelievable!! Its basically an outdoor cathedral surrounded by a rainforest and lake. Have a look at the pictures.

CONGRATULATIONS TO SANDRA!!

Congratulations to Sandra (of ISAK) on the birth of her brand new un-named baby boy!!

Renee & Jeremy

I saw these guys on Lisa's blog Modeco. I think i had been on their website for about 30 seconds and i was entering in my paypal details for my own copy! Their music is so so pretty! I am hooked!

The other night i was on my way out (with no kids in the care) and when i got to my destination 20 minutes later - i realised that i still had the "ABD kids - silly songs for the car" CD playing and not only that, the worst thing was that the whole trip there i was singing the songs without even realising!! I would be more than happy to listen to Renee & Jeremys lullabies for hours - kids or no kids!!

Check out their website here!!

Hi All,

This month has been great for us, the yound designer markets were such a success, thanks to everyone that came to see us there! We had so much fun, met new friends and sold loads of clothes & canvases! The feedback that we received blew us away!!
This month our UK partner Sandra Isaksson took some of our collaboration winter samples to the Top Drawer Trade Show in the UK. Sandra said the feedback from everyone there was excellent! Here are some photos from the show so you can have a sneek peek of our upcoming range!

ISAK

Hello everyone...I hope you had a great weekend!! Today I wanted to introduce you to a fantastic UK home wears label that has joined Three Little Trees for our winter collaboration range!!! Sandra Isaksson is the designer of Isak. She designs fantastic very original prints which come in many formats....coasters, canvases, plates, cups, serving trays and blankets. Kate and I approached Sandra a while ago because we fell in love with her unique style and colourful clean lined flair. She sells her products globally and is becoming a great success!! Like Kate and I, she too is a mum to 4 year old Theo with another little surprise due any day now. I personally cannot wait to launch our winter range knowing the popularity of her art work and of course knowing how stunning these bubs and children will look in our stylish range.

We have Sweetbeets!

We have been lucky enough to get distribution rights to Sweetbeets cards within Australia so i will tell you a little bit about them!

These are the cutest greeting cards you will ever see! They are letterpress printed in Canada using vegetable-based inks on 100% post-consumer recycled paper and envelopes and biodegradable sleeves. Perfect for welcoming a new baby, saying thank you for a baby shower gift, celebrating a child's birthday, or reconnecting with a childhood friend, they are all blank on the inside. The vintage printing press produces a crisp embossed impression that you can see and feel. They are just so yummy!

Lisa from Sweetbeets is constantly thinking of new designs, her next range is due out in a couple of months with the main focus being on "new baby". She usually releases about 3 new designs a year...And in case your wondering where the name Sweetbeets came from...it is the name that Lisa's husband affectionately calls their children... how precious!!

Young Designer Markets, South Bank 7th September

Hi Guys....For all of you that are in Brisbane on fathers day (September 7th) come and see Kate and I at the young designer markets at South Bank!!! We are really excited about it.....its our debut market!!! Yey! We will have all items and garments off our website for you to touch and see for yourselves how beautiful they are.

Wow..... These toys remind me of my childhood!! For those of you who remember pulling those cute little wooden toys behind you while strolling up and down the footpath or innocently stacking blocks in the lounge room this site will also send you down memory lane. I found this website while looking for eco friendly toys to add to our website. They are simply beautiful....hand crafted and painted in natural looking colours with non-toxic paint. If any of you know of any other eco friendly toy stores out there as nice and classic as this one let us know, I would love to have a look!!
