My Week

Well, it has been a hugely busy time for me in the last couple of weeks!  Little Indigo exhibited at the Melbourne Baby & Toddler Show over the weekend, and although the planning and preparation was a little stressful at times, I had a great time.  I received some fantastic feedback about my little store and met some of my customers and suppliers in person, which was great!  And the first purchase........one of the very cute Plushka owls. I also want to say a big thank you to all my helpers over the weekend and all of my suppliers, everyone has been so supportive :)

Most of you have already seen some of the pics on FB, but here it is again...a pic of my stand.

There were so many great stands, I particularly loved the gorgeous Lark exhibit.  All in all it was a great learning experience for me and you may see Little Indigo back again next year ;-)

It is going to be another busy couple of weeks while I start uploading all of our Winter Stock onto the website.  Some of the new arrivals are pictured below (the gorgeous pics are courtesy of the very clever Jen Mc Cue Photography):

And stay tuned, because there will be a huge amount of SALE items available soon.

Hoot Hoot!

I was very excited to upload our new collection of Plushka baby owls to the Little Indigo store.  They are so cute!  Made from beautiful soft felt and trimmed with gorgeous cotton fabrics (which are exclusive to the Little Indigo store).  Which one is your favourite?

 

 I LOVE them all!! If you would love to see these sweet little owls in person make sure you head along to the Melbourne Baby & Toddler Show next Friday 8th, 9th or 10th.  Little Indigo will be at stand 313 and I would love for people to stop by and say hello.  It is my very first Show, so I am just a tad nervous!!  But I am looking forward to showcasing many of the beautiful creations available on the Little Indigo store, plus some new labels and designs!

What's New?

I feel like I haven't written a Blog Post for a long time!  So, while my two boys are asleep I am getting my chance.

It has been a busy time at Little Indigo in the last few weeks.  I have just finished my first season of buying, which was really exciting.  I still find it a little strange that I am able to pick out clothing that will be worn next Summer!  Winter deliveries have also started to arrive, plus I am continually on the look out for new labels and gorgeous handmade products that would be a perfect fit for the Little Indigo store. 

And planning is well under way for my first big show, the Baby and Toddler Show!  Only one month away now! 

Below are some of the new things that have been added to the Little Indigo store in the last few weeks.

A gorgeous new range of stationery by Emmy Rose - I love elephants!

Vintage Fabric Skirts by Krumpet - so gorgeous!

Mini Envy! I'm so excited to be stocking this label!

Keep an eye on the website in the coming weeks, as there will be lots of new products on the site!

Big Week!

It has been an exciting week for Little Indigo!  To see my little website in Shop 4 Kids was such an exciting experience.  Starting a new business is hard work, and the process can sometimes be peppered with moments of self doubt, so to be included in such a great magazine made me feel as though I may be on the right track :)

Here I am!!

I have also been busy ordering in the Winter Stock for Little Indigo and also placing orders for Summer 2012 (can you believe it!!)  I will be introducing several new labels to the Little Indigo store which I am very excited about.  I will reveal more soon.

We also introduced some gorgeous pieces to the store from the label Olive's Friend Pop.  Such gorgeous designs, they look even better in person!

Olive's Friend Pop - Limited Sizes Available

Another new addition to the site are the Custom Single Bed Quilts by Long and The Short.  If you are interested in having a custom quilt made please contact Jo at info@littleindigo.com.au

The other exciting moment of the week was my son's very first day of 4 year old Kinder!  It is official, he is all grown up.  He was very excited, and very brave and had a fantastic day! 

And yes, my 2 year old thought he was going along too :)

And I have many more new arrivals to add to the store next week, plus I am very, very excited about some orders I will be placing in the next few weeks! Keep watching this space!

Gorgeous Quilts by Long and the Short

Today's post is about the beautiful handmade quilts that we stock at Little Indigo.  Each quilt is made from designer fabrics (including the gorgeous Sprout Range of fabrics), by Long and the Short.  I spotted these at a Melbourne Market last year and absolutely loved them. 

We are also introucing a couple of new Quilt designs that you can see below.  And some great news!  All quilts are now available in either a Cot Size or Single Bed Size.  If you require a quote for the Single Bed size or something else a little bit different that you have in mind, please email Jo at info@littleindigo.com.au
