Many years ago in Sweden, life revolved around the homestead. Beautiful colours and patterns were highly appreciated, decorating both day-to-day life and festivities. Inspired by this heritage, Lycka Form presents a collection of blankets that combine the old with the new, traditional patterns and designs, in a contemporary way. The blankets are produced in Sweden, and made of pure wool. The children’s version, measures 100 x 75 cm. It is available in red, yellow, black& white and blue. You can order them directly from the producer www.testwebben.se. Let’s hope that featuring winter products on Pirouette today will help summer reach the UK. It’s still annoyingly cold here!

Plush is a sparkling children’s brand from Belgium. It’s huggable, it’s cute, it’s raw and somewhat rock’n’roll! The handmade colourful high-class tees finished with felt up-prints are very fun to wear. No wonder : the choice of material, colours and forms of the upprints is decided togheter with children. Check out their accessories, a well thought complement to the clothing line.

With the Sky Planter, Boskke really transforms the way people enjoy plants in their living environments. This company from New Zealand was no longer satisfied with having plants relegated to the remote corners of a room, so they elevated them into stunning interior features. Living spaces should be as beautiful and tranquil as a forest glade, no? Boskke’s designer Patrick Morris found a way of bringing more greenery into homes without cluttering the floor-space. Look up. Children will love this other way of contemplating life!
