We have a winner! 18% of you voted for author and TV personality Daisy Goodwin with her slogan “Because the future’s worth it”. She’s the lucky winner with 10 bags with her slogan printed on them headed her way, congratulations Daisy! The second most popular slogan was “I may look like an old bag but inside I still feel sixteen” from the fabulous Sam Pearce from Mums The Boss while in third place we had a tie, “Same Bag, Different Day” (my effort, ahem) and “Caution: May Contain Cake, Wine or Chocolate” from Sam Pearce again! An honourable mention also goes to Victoria Cramsie from the gorgeous Paperboy Wallpaper for her great suggestion, “Bag Yourself a Future”. I am hoping to use more than one of the slogans on the bags as there were so many great suggestions and ideas, thank you so much everyone for participating and I’ll keep you posted once I have finished designing the slogan and sent it to Smartbags for printing! I also had some lovely comments about Mimimyne’s service, and am happy to report that over 70% of you who had bought something from Mimimyne were very satisfied with your purchase, while the rest of you were evenly split between quite satisfied and satisfied.

‘Give a chance to beautiful handcrafted toys; bring the timeless teddy bear back in the arm of your children.’

That’s the mission statement, if you like, of Cosytots toys. Apart from the poor grammar (yes, I also correct apostrophes on signs in the greengrocers) it’s an adage I wholeheartedly agree with.

A toy that’s not been made in a factory with thousands of others exactly the same; that has been made with a bit of thought for comfort and cuddles; that has been constructed from materials that have been selected with care for the environment and the origin of said materials is the kind of toy I want LO to have and treasure. Temis seems to present all of those.
