We LOVE Found:: The Store

For a while now i have been drooling over photos on their facebook page, and today I had the absolute pleasure of visiting this gorgeous store!

Located at 1011 Old Princes Highway ENGADINE NSW 2233, FOUND:: The Store, is an eclectic mix of gifts and home wares, beautifully presented, a scrumptious feast for the eyes.

I had the privelege of working alongside sisters Toni and Shelli at boutique markets in the past years, and was a tad green eyed when I read about their new endeavour, and watched as they fitted the shop and celebrated the opening a few months back.

In store, you can purchase great products such as Elk accessories, beautiful handmade ceramics from Bison, Red Revival brooches, and a favourite with my two little chickies, the retro spinning tops!

If you are based in Sydney - my tip is to set aside a Saturday to venture in to the Royal National Park for a picnic, and DEFINATELY make it a priority to stop by the Found shop in Engadine on your way through!

Check out their Facebook page for more details and to keep up to date with new products!

A visit to Finders Keepers

launching our new collection.....

When we launched our Cheeky Chickies label going back two years ago now, we added a very basic Rosette Brooch as an accessory to our Sunny Side Up Sleeveless Dress. Next we decided to play around with some print fabrics, as a way of showing through accessorising, how different looks could be created with the same piece.

We have continued to develop this accessories collection, and towards the end of last year, we introduced the Rosette Pendant Necklace, and incorporated fabric covered buttons in to the Rosettes.

We are now excited to be officially launching our collection of "eggcessories", with the upgrade of our Rosettes Brooches now incorporating a hair clip so it has a dual purpose, continuing to bring out a fantastic combination of fabric prints and beads in our jewellery, Rosette Headbands, and our new fabric covered button brooch pins, in two sizes, with prints to appeal to both women and children, plus matching fabric covered button hair ties.

Our "eggcessories" range will be available for purchase from select boutique retail stores, and at Cheeky Chickies Pop-Up Stores at some exclusive events that we are excited to be involved with this year!!

Zumba!

My little lady is turning 5 this week.

We celebrated today with a Zumba Disco Party!

I made Amalia's dress from Michael Miller Fabric, and

layered over a pair of Cheeky Chickies Cropped Slim Fit Pants

and Frill Sleeve Top in Twilight Purple.

She was very chuffed to receive a little gift

from the Zumba Instructor, and it was amazing

how perfectly the head band matched her outfit!

Zumba was not just for the girls,

Boys both Big and Little were having a boogie!

My little man Tae had a ball (below)

Everyone enjoyed the cake and Sweet Station!

And even the mummies got up for a go at the Penguin Dance!

Big thanks to all who helped to celebrate,

for all the lovely gifts that Mali recieve,

thanks to my family and hubby for helping out,

and BIG thank you to my friend Emma

for running the entire Zumba Party Show!!
