selling out

No, we’re not selling out, our Logan crib bedding is. We’ve had to mark our three and four-piece crib sets temporarily out of stock. We just can’t make them fast enough, sorry!

But don’t fear, we have plenty more on the way. And you can still place your order, for shipping as soon as they arrive; likely by the end of April. Watch our site for updates :-)

get the look: billie 2012

A couple of days back, I shared our new George ‘get the look’ selection, to offer some nursery design inspiration. Next-up, here are the products we’ve picked to match Billie.

These products share a mid-century modern aesthetic, and complement our Billie design perfectly. Click above to get a closer look at the products and where you can buy them :-)

get the look: george 2012

We’ve refreshed our get the look series, to match our recent design updates. Here’s our George selection, featuring products that we’ve picked to complement the tweaked design.

Click the image above to take a closer look at the new products/paint colors we’ve picked, and find out where to buy them. We hope you like the new additions. More on the way :-)

2012 brochure

Just to let you know, we’ve completed the Olli & Lime 2012 nursery brochure. It features all the new products I’ve been discussing here and much more. Click to open the PDF.

This new sixteen-page brochure contains everything we create for the nursery, including our recently launched Logan collection, and our just updated George and Billie designs.

We don’t print paper copies, because we regularly add products to our collection and it’d become outdated very quickly. Also, we LOVE trees, so we wouldn’t want to waste any.

If you like what we do at Olli & Lime, download the PDF to your desktop, and keep it for reference. When we add products or update the brochure, I’ll let you know right here :-)

new hooded blankets

Another day, another new product to share. You may remember these from our photo shoot last November. In any case, time to get (re)acquainted with our hooded blankets.

Here’s our George design hooded blanket, expertly modeled by Epic, and featuring our (increasingly familiar) new pattern and shade of green, plus our super-soft cuddle fleece.

As you’d expect, the Billie version, modeled here by Warren, features our just redesigned Billie fabric. By the way, both model shots come courtesy of EpicDanger Photography.

While we don’t recommend using these hooded blankets for drying straight from the bath, the soft cuddle fleece is ideal to keep your little one wrapped-up and warm afterwards.

These new hooded blankets perfectly complement your O&L collection and make an ideal baby shower gift. Both designs are priced at $28, available to buy now from our shop :-)

new sheet fabric

Perhaps the standout feature of our updated George and Billie designs is the sheet fabric, which gives a new feel to our 3 and 4-piece crib bedding sets, and toddler bedding sets.

As per the bib & burp sets I shared last week, the sheets now feature a smaller, more intricate pattern than before, which creates a better contrast with the white quilt fabric.

We’ve tweaked the colors too, using a new, warmer orange for the Billie design, and a fresh ‘greener’ shade of green for George, helping both updated designs to really ‘pop’.

These new sheet fabrics each contrast perfectly with the chocolate brown crib skirt and quilt edging fabric, which remains the same as we’ve previously used for both designs.

Both collections are available to view and buy now, in our shop. Prices start at $195 for a 3-piece crib bedding set and $100 for a toddler bedding set. More news on the way… :-)

new changing pad covers

More of the new collection now. Actually, due to popular demand, we decided to start selling these changing pad covers before the full launch. But, in case you missed them…

…meet our George and Billie changing pad covers. They are designed to match each range’s newly updated sheet fabric, and sized to fit a standard, contoured changing pad.

Each changing pad cover comes complete with its own cute little drawstring bag – in matching fabric – handy for storing little ‘knick-knacks’…or whatever you want, really.

These changing pad covers are available for $28 each, in our shop. We hope you like them. I’ll be sharing more of the updated George and Billie products very soon… :-)

new bib and burps

I said I’d reveal a little more about our tweaked George and Billie designs, so here goes. First-up, meet our new bib and burp sets, which have been given a fresh, modern look…

George features the same basic color palette, but we’ve tweaked the lime green to make it more um…green. We’ve also chosen a warmer shade of orange for the Billie design.

For both sets, we’ve increased the density of pattern coverage on the white fabric, while redesigning the contrasting fabric to feature a much smaller, more intricate pattern.

Both sets contain three pieces – a bib and two burp cloths – and are available at $35 each from our shop. We hope you like the changes. More on the updated collection soon… :-)

design refresh

We’ve been busily refreshing our George and Billie designs for a while. And now they’re ready. Though the visual changes are pretty subtle, we think they’re a big improvement.

We hope you’ll agree. Something I’m sure you’ll agree with are the prices. Design tweaks have helped us to cut costs, and trim prices; bringing them into line with our Logan range.

For the lifestyle shots, George and Billie get a Mid-Century Modern makeover, creating a better visual match for the ‘loft-style’ Logan photography I shared three weeks back.

Our products complement many architectural and decor styles, but we decided to place these retro/modern designs in environments that we feel perfectly fit their personalities.

What also fits are the complementary products we’ve added; some you may have seen here before, some not. We’ll reveal the source of these soon, in our ‘get the look’ series.

Over the days and weeks that follow, I’ll be giving you specific details on the design and price tweaks we’ve implemented. If you can’t wait, skip across to our shop right now :-)

jellycat swap

Sadly, the Jellycats Giraffe, which accompanied our Billie range, has been discontinued. Good news is, we’ve found a very worthy replacement; this beautiful ‘Cordy Roy’ Lion…

This sand colored lion takes ‘pride’ of place next to the immensely popular burnt orange aardvark and chocolate brown hound, to complete our lineup of Billie range Jellycats.

All three are available from our shop, priced at $24.99 each. We also sell Jellycats in variations of green and pink, to match our George and Logan ranges respectively :-)
