molly-meg

I'm a huge fan of "Molly-Meg" and now my little maudie is big enough, she too can enjoy these wonderful vintage chairs - and better still now stay on them.
Specialising in designs from the 1950s to the present, Molly-Meg aims to show the best of contemporary design along with vintage classics, creating a perfect combination which kids will love and that will evoke nostalgia among parents.
Later this month we look forward to working alongside Molly and some of her 'miniature classics' so will bring you more news then..... in the meantime be sure to check out Molly-Meg and I bet childhood memories will come flooding back

Review

We are delighted and very excited by the wonderful review we have received from Natalie at Bambino Goodies and Nest Goodies. Enjoy the read and a BIG thank you :)

Top Drawer - thank you

Well, the day after is here again, and I'd just like to say thank you to all that called by the stand at Top Drawer, we had a super show, and new ORGANIC product was met with great enthusiasm. Big thank you for the write ups we've had so far, very much appreciated and great to here the positive feedback. We took on lots of new accounts and for those regulars who stopped by it was as always great to see you. I know a few who couldn't make it or couldn't get on the stand so for those here are a few additional images of the products. New card range I'll report on and add images later. Thanks again, best, claire :)

Anyone who can't make it be sure to drop us a line and we can get a catalogue to you. Enjoy, cloud cuckOO

Beautiful papers whilst in search of a new home

Whilst continuing the travels around the South-West country last week in search of a potential new home I did as always get side tracked but can you blame me.... I came across Jurianne Matter and her wonderful paper-works, she is now one of my favorite paper designers. I couldn't help but buy her creations and what better the boats and lanterns simple sum up summer, boats by day and soft light by night - lovely lovely.

we love print

as a textile print designer I get so excited seeing new prints and of course classic vintage too, mini moderns vintage prints are fab, made me think of my nanna and a real comfy tiny sofa she had.

I've just completed another range of scandi-esque prints so clean and fresh and a great contrast to our cloud cuckoo card style. Orla Kiely has gorgeous prints always and just love the above from her spring 09 collection

Thanks to all our visitors and buyers

We're very excited to receive all our new pieces and will be getting them ready to be sent out to all our buyers.
It was lovely to see you all at Pulse and we had a great show. Hope you all had a super time too.
The new giftwrap was a huge success and we're now working hard with all new requests. Have a great weekend and enjoy the stock when it arrives next week!

Cloud Cuckoo Designs is still Cloud Cuckoo Designs!!

Hello all, I’m posting today to clear up any confusion. There has been some misinformation put about that Cloud Cuckoo Designs have been renamed as Ella and Otto. I can confirm this is not the case. Yes, there is a brand Ella and Otto but this is a company set up this year using designs registered and developed under Cloud Cuckoo Designs. These designs were produced during a trial project, involving Cloud Cuckoo Designs and Tania Urban (who earlier this year set up Ella & Otto). Disappointed by the results, which we felt were too compromised, we decided at the end of 2008 that we would stop selling this range under the Cloud Cuckoo Designs name, once all stock had been sold.
We are producing a new textile range in our signature style that will be available in the near future and will include similar and additional products as before.

Pulse 09

Less than one week to go and more new product to arrive this week, how exciting.
Sunday 31st May will be the first day of Pulse 09 open to trade. Since the last show we've noted requests by our wonderful stockists and we're really pleased to be delivering on these and can't wait for you to see them.
If you come along call by and say hello on stand J55 be greta to see you, if you can't make it hope you like the updated website and catalogue to download.
Wishes, claire
