DOWNTIME

Wattle & Loop brings you colourful, do-able slow stitch embroidery kits that you will lovingly complete and display. No more 'hope' boxes of embroidery projects sitting gathering dust at the top of your wardrobe.

These kits have everything you need to inspire you to get your needle on and get crafting. Using scissors, glue, needle, and DMC thread together with lovingly curated Liberty of London print fabric remnants and exquisite linens, the designs come to life right before your eyes. Better still, the designs are contemporary and totally framable. You'll feel a great sense of satisfaction hanging them around your house or, perhaps, your new creative studio as your own ideas begin to unfurl.

The crimson fig is this kit's celebrity. Designer Kylie Wright brings the luscious fruit to life so much so that Yotham Ottolenghi could surely use it for his next book cover. Watch the video and see how easy it is to create your own delightful art.

Hidey Ho

For the cutest of the cute hats for Aussie bubs, you can't go past the Camo print in the SUNDAY AFTERNOONS' Kids Play Hat.

Feel free to add the Shane Warne style zinc cream to the nose but you'll find super protection in this style for 2 to 5 years olds.

It's Sunday Afternoons' NUMBER 1 bestselling hat style for a reason. All kids wanna do is play in the sun, and parents love to protect them. Sun-smart fabric and hat design keep natural-born adventurers safe and happy all day long.

Playproof details like a breakaway chinstrap, customisable sizing band, floatable brim, and stain resistance ensure that this hat lasts for summers to come. The back veil not only protects little necks from Australia's harsh rays, but it also allows the hat to sit comfortably when worn in a pram. And? Total cuteness.
