We have some great new items which have already made it in our boys' bags, with some new girls' bags to come very soon. We have a cute little flower press –perfect for taking on country walks; cat's cradle string (remember that?); and fortune-telling fish for the girls. And for the boys: wooden knights; wind-up airplanes; and pirate tattoos. We also have sourced two beautiful new fabrics – an ice-cream sundae fabric for the girls and a cowboy print for the boys. Both are by Michael Miller, imported from the States, and they are divine - they compliment the other fabrics in our range of fabric bags perfectly.</span></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;"><br /></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(192, 192, 192);"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;"><br /></span></span></div><div><a href="http://www.thelittlethings.info/"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(192, 192, 192);"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;">www.thelittlethings.info</span></span></a><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(192, 192, 192);"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:medium;"><br /></span></span><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(192, 192, 192);"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:medium;"> </span></span></div></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/575964256643476825-1429557271829352383?l=thelittlethingspartybags.blogspot.com'/></div>The Little Thingshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09238961945517140196noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-575964256643476825.post-30963821005369565492008-06-18T02:49:00.000-07:002008-12-09T09:55:30.524-08:00Party Bunting<div><br /></div><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_FqkGVuGaLDU/SFjgIAw1ExI/AAAAAAAAAEA/_8IrO6X9t34/s1600-h/teatime.gif"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_FqkGVuGaLDU/SFjgIAw1ExI/AAAAAAAAAEA/_8IrO6X9t34/s400/teatime.gif" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5213162996929729298" /></a><div><br /></div><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_FqkGVuGaLDU/SFjfxXWzs_I/AAAAAAAAAD4/KKmzpmI63No/s1600-h/flower-bunting.gif"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_FqkGVuGaLDU/SFjfxXWzs_I/AAAAAAAAAD4/KKmzpmI63No/s400/flower-bunting.gif" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5213162607857611762" /></a><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><br /><div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(204, 204, 204);">Look at our lovely new bunting.

Went to Camber Sands with my two girls, one of their friends and Barbara. While they managed to get a kite in the air I grabbed every minute of sunshine to take some pictures - what do you think? I would love some comments! Just found out that we're going to stay in a Fifties Airstream on the Isle of Wight this weekend which will be perfect for some more lovely piccies - I'll post some as soon as I get back.</span></span><br /></div></span><div style="text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(204, 204, 204);"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(204, 204, 204);">To see my new bags, please visit my website at </span><a href="http://www.thelittlethings.info/"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(204, 204, 204);">www.thelittlethings.info</span></a></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/575964256643476825-5380146582277823889?l=thelittlethingspartybags.blogspot.com'/></div>The Little Thingshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09238961945517140196noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-575964256643476825.post-7886627605289675412008-04-06T13:46:00.000-07:002008-12-09T09:55:32.138-08:00Now it's snowing!<div><br /></div><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_FqkGVuGaLDU/R_k79vgxu3I/AAAAAAAAACE/SQvNZqp0uLA/s1600-h/snowy+lane.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_FqkGVuGaLDU/R_k79vgxu3I/AAAAAAAAACE/SQvNZqp0uLA/s400/snowy+lane.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5186242377805839218" /></a><br /><div><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(204, 204, 204);">I need a sunny spring day so</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(204, 204, 204);"> I can some take new pictures for The Little Things website but it seems to be a long way off.

I love this time of year – I love the primroses and daffs, I love egg rolling, I love the evenings getting lighter, but what I love most are birthday parties in the garden and with Easter comes the promise of better weather. My youngest daughter was an Easter baby, delivered on Easter Sunday. The Easter Bunny hasn't brought me such a special present since but every year we have an egg hunt in the garden and you never know!

I've never done this sort of thing before but I'm going to give it a go . . . </span></span></span></span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style=";"><span class="Apple-style-span" style=""><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(204, 204, 204);">So where do I start? Well, I suppose I should firstly write a little bit about The Little Things. I started the company last year, selling party bags online. The Little Things was created to meet a demand for pretty bags filled with quality gifts that children like to keep - we don't sell sweets or cheap plastic toys and there's not a TV character in sight. </span></span></span></span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style=";"><span class="Apple-style-span" style=""><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(204, 204, 204);">As a mum of two I was fed up of going to parties where the contents of the party bag would be thrown about the back of the car on the way home. It made me question the whole approach to children's parties. Where was the value for money? And what was the cost to the environment? And so The Little Things was born. </span></span></span></span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;"><br /></span></span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"><a href="http://www.thelittlethings.info/"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;">http://www.thelittlethings.info</span></a></span></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/575964256643476825-574148985929876836?l=thelittlethingspartybags.blogspot.com'/></div>The Little Thingshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09238961945517140196noreply@blogger.com0
