Monday Giveaway - Cherish & Cherubs

Have I got a great site and giveaway for you today, I like nothing better than to bring you unique sites and with an added bonus of being set up and run by a mother.

Cherish & Cherubs launched in June 2010 and sells vintage and vintage inspired gifts and interiors for children. Categories include bedding, blankets, bunting, fabric and wallpaper and cushions.

Cherish & Cherubs is the brain child of Caitlin, this is what she says about how she started her online boutique




I set up Cherish & Cherubs (Vintage inspired gifts and interiors) as I already work part-time and didn't want to go back to work full-time whilst my son is so young. As a single mum in London things financially are often difficult, so rather than dwelling on things I got my thinking cap on and found the was a gap in the market for an online shop selling high-quality gifts and interiors for children. There are lots of web based businesses selling baby gifts, but in my opinion often not great quality or mass produced items, so I began searching for high quality products with a vintage element. I also drew on what resources I already had; I have a lot of talented friends, mostly mums who were keen to get involved, including an interior designer, a soft furnishings and curtain maker, photographer and crafts people.

I want everything from Cherish and Cherubs but some of my favourites are this Cath Kidston vintage cars wallpaper £22 per roll, I wonder if BG would like it her room?

I love this Dolly Girl lunch box, £2.95 it’s so cute.

My favourite item is this Janet Playsuit, £42 BG would rock this!!

To help celebrate the launch of this new fantastic site Cherish & Cherubs are giving one lucky New Mummy’s Tips reader the chance to win a Personalised Wooden Train with the name of their choice.

All you have to do is tell you favourite item from Cherish & Cherubs by leaving a comment below.

I will announce the winner on Tuesday 24th August
Open to UK residents only

You  must leave a name on your comment or I can't count you in the giveaway.
