I just got emailed a lovely photo of a mum-to-be receiving Teenytini’s hand-crocheted “Julius” cardigan at a baby shower with the caption “One very happy mum-to-be!”. We had a challenge getting the little jacket out to our customer as being one-of-a-kind, like all Teenytini’s designs, it was currently being exhibited in Paris when we got the order. However, the jacket made it to the shower despite the Royal Mail postal strike.

If I ever think an order won’t make it on time for a special occasion, I will always offer customers the option of a full refund and I do my best to make sure customers know in advance if there will be a delivery problem and offer them the option to cancel their order. I want all my customers to be happy ones! Always let Mimimyne know if your gift must arrive on a certain date when you make an order, using the comment box when you order. That way, I can keep an eye on your delivery and do my best to help you get the gift there on time.

Last Sunday Mimimyne exhibited at Kids.Modern, where we met lots of kids and their parents and generally had a lovely time. The Paperpod Den, painted in a Magritte style with a blue sky, apple and bowler hat by my friend Amanda, a scenic painter, was a huge hit as was the Paperpod Aeroplane in the style of Juan Miro. Lots of children tried out the Splat Chair and spent a lot of time in our Den or drawing at the Little Genius tables belonging to Arash and Kelly‘s stand next door (blackboard paint seems to be a theme at the show, we had our Chalkboards and Arash and Kelly had a whole blackboard stand where children could write and draw). The Teenytini range was also very popular on my stand.  I had time to nip upstairs to visit Suzi of Twisted Twee, who had brought all her funky kids and babies’ T-shirts, and I also admired the Billy Rocker cardboard rocking horse, the fantastic Shapemaker by Miller Goodman and the Iain Childs toy boxes from some of the other stands. There were great designers, a puppet show and a barbecue, it really was a perfect event for kids and families.

Thrilled that the Anouk dress by J K Lange for Teenytini, available here on Mimimyne, has been featured in The Gin Lady’s fantastic blog. The Gin lady describes herself as ‘Under the influence… of Green, Independent and Natural’ and her gorgeous site is a celebration of all things eco, designer and fabulous. Check it out!
