Our Goodnight Fairies come with a tiny jar full of real fairy wishes! Collected with the blessing and assistance of local Tasmanian fairy folk.

The Goodnight Fairy sits guard by bedsides, making sure that dreams stay sweet!

She comes with her very own velvet pouch.

We designed these fairies to help take some of the fear out of night time. Night doesn’t have to be scary - it’s just different 🌟

Highly recommend a botanical bath and candle lighting to mark the winter solstice. Creating family rituals to mark the patterns of the earth’s movements builds connection, relationships and a sense of belonging.

We used rose petals in our baths - they’re grown and dried in Tasmania with no sprays or nasties 🌹🏵

Peg Dolls for Palestine - Flag or Watermelon design available 🇵🇸🍉

All proceeds (the full $6) go to the Emergency Appeal campaign to provide mattresses, blankets and food packages for displaced children and families.
https://olivekids.org.au/donate/

Each doll is individually hand-painted with non-toxic paint. Great for either play or display.

I have felt overwhelmed and grief-stricken by what I’ve been seeing happen to our fellow humans. I’ve felt helpless … so this is my small effort in making some kind of difference.

A sweet little one-of-a-kind set to get started with botanical fizz magic.

Includes:
- Mini sachet of Playful Purple botanical fizz (made with butterfly pea powder and corn flowers).

- Lavender wand, handmade by a young local entrepreneur, using lavender stems and ribbon.

- Vintage bowl.

Our vintage accessories are carefully selected from a range of sources. We love vintage because it aligns with our environmental ethos (minimal impact!), as well as our love of treasure hunting adventures.

Bye bye forest folk 🥹
We have some new pieces in development and a bit of a shift in direction because, frankly, the market is saturated and that’s not sparking joy!

Think a nature-focused and a vintage/upcycled vibe, with a shift towards children 5 and over.
The whimsy will always remain 💛



ps I will always still make these for friends and family, because I genuinely love them!

Our botanical bubbly fizz powders are all natural and non-toxic. pH tested to be safe for small hands.
We never, ever use food dyes. Did you know
most food dyes are made from petroleum? Not nice for our young people, and especially nasty for our environment. Food dyes are also linked to adverse immune response and behavioural effects.
We use only botanical products for colour and scent, such as strawberry, beetroot, spirulina and safflower.

Model a preferred sensory activity through parallel play with your young person 💛

And we can calm together!
Yesterday, Lulu felt a bit down after all the festive excitement. And I felt scattered and unsettled. So, we grabbed our Lulu and Me play dough and just quietly rolled it around, side by side with each other. The change I felt in myself and saw in him was almost instant 💛
