This Mama is Liz

Liz says...
I'm the owner of Jujube - a distribution company in NZ and AU importing the coolest US brands. I have 2 boys - my youngest has just turned 1 and the oldest is 3 so my household is quite busy, and l'm always looking for something a bit different but funky for them both. The boys are all about messy faces (which is why Momspit is soo cool), and cars - the race ya fits the bill!! With a 1 year old it's also about sleeping (Merino sleeping bags are so yummy l want one myself, and the Zoobies are a great 3-in-1 toy when travelling) For eating the French Bull plates are very trendy and my 3 year old has so many of the Mr Vintage tees it's hard to pick a favourite.

This Mama is Tegan

Townsville business woman Tegan Crisafulli is mum to two gorgeous girls, Georgia 4 yrs, Nicola 2 yrs. Her latest venture is the fabulous Georgia’s Garden – Boutique for Kids.
She says - Like many mothers I love to shop for my kids, but working as a financial advisor and caring for my family left me little time for my passion. I wanted to create an online boutique to allow people to shop when most convenient to them. After years of dreaming about the concept, and sick of seeing children wearing the same brands, I created Georgia’s Garden – a boutique with a difference. I stock brands that you can't find everywhere and that are unique, just like our children.

{Query} Tween boy question

Hello readers...can you help me out? I've had a query that I need help answering, maybe you have some ideas?

I am looking at decorating a bedroom for my son over Christmas and need to source some nice fabric. Can you recommend any retailers with some interesting stuff for tween boys - of course he is into soccer and guitars ...no more trains, dinosaurs or rocket ships. I have seen some wonderful ready made stuff on the Next UK website but I can't get it sent here. I would love to hear your suggestions.

Marie, Qld.
