I‘m a bit of a decor junkie, that is, I develop random crushes for inanimate objects, often. My latest fancy is these quirky little puffs of upcycled woollyness from NZ label ♥ Seam. They’re bright, playful and would look pretty sweet in kid’s rooms or anywhere else the family likes to kick back and get comfy .. fab!
♥ From $65NZ

Yes, I’m double-dipping (I’m with you George), but I couldn’t leave Gallop Lifestyle without mentioning these retro cool wall hangings by Melbourne label ♥ Love.
Made from wood veneer, the nifty self-assembly kits are based on original drawings of Love’s creator, Melbourne artist Geneine Honey, and - in my opinion - are just the bee’s knees!
If you’re as taken with the cute whimsy of Painted Girl (far top) as I, you’ll also adore Love’s necklaces, earrings and brooches, where Painted Girl features, along with an eclectic parade of quirkily cool characters and playful scenes.

I received an email from Annie Bowen of wonderful new eco store ♥ Gallop Lifestyle - it’s so divine, I’m wondering if she’ll let me move in? - which led me to the delightful handmade wonders of textile artist Aly Peel that Gallop Lifestyle carry.
Under her label ♥ Maiike, Aly upcycles old jumpers, cleaning, felting and cutting them into squares, which she then fashions into an exquisite collection of cot quilts, cushions and scarfs.
While there’s quite a few lovely blanket options for baby, quilts are another matter. So I was thrilled when I spied these sumptuous puffs of sustainable goodness - what a stunning heirloom piece for babies cot!
The thrills don’t end there. As a sustainable artist, Aly doesn’t allow anything to go to waste; any leftover material is used to create super snugglie softies. There’s monkeys, rabbits and cats, all equally adorable, thus making it impossible to single out any one of these lovely play pals for special mention - each and everyone would totally delight your little guy or girl.
