I wrote a nursery update last month and it’s already time for another. July’s nursery update is all about the new bits I have bought this month.
I have happened to go some great places this month and I have managed to pick up some amazing pieces.
First up are a couple of bits from Elsie and Jem Crafts, a local company based in Sheringham. These I found at a school summer fair around the corner from my house. Unfortunately, the weather was terrible so we didn’t stick around long.
I ended up buying an amazing hand crafted toadstool doorstop and a needle felted fairy.
I had planned on hanging the fairy from the tree decal on the wall but she wasn’t quite right so now she lives on Erin’s wardrobe handles. Isn’t she stunning? There was more of this kind of thing available too and I desperately want something else to go with the fairy. These were both £8 each.
Next up is a wall sign I bought from the Amazona Zoo gift shop. I don’t normally bother with a gift shop but something must have caught my eye. I’m so glad I went in. They also had loads with ‘Erin’ printed on as well!The woodland and toadstool sign was the bargain price of £6. I then got three animal cards (£2.20 each) from Upstairs, Downstairs in Cromer. I absolutely love this shop. I can’t go in it without coming out with something, normally for Erin. These cards are going to hang from the little toadstool clips on the wall sign. They’re cheaper than buying proper prints!
I love buying from local businesses, especially from small crafters. I had such a lucky week of finding things for Erin and I can’t wait to find proper homes for them in her room.
I think it’s the little bits and pieces (like the ones above) that make a room even more special and lovely 🙂
Those little cards are very lovely! I particularly like the fox one, they are also a good price. I love gift shops for sweet little things you can’t get anywhere else. I agree that local and small businesses are great to buy from, I always support local.

It’s so great you are supporting local artisans the cards are really sweet, I love the toadstool sign, so cute.
I love buying accessories for our house, I think it really makes a room. I love the toadstool sign x
I can’t wait to do up another room after this one. We bought a doer upper so we’ve got loads to do!
I love buying from local small businesses too. Great post.
It’s so good that you’re supporting local businesses – I love the animal cards!
I believe that accessories definitely make a room feel homely. Its great that you are so supportive of local businesses.
Woodland and toadstool sign is really pretty, I bet you’re loving add bits to the nursery
