The Memories that Make Me

Our Fall 2008 Collection has been shipped to stores now. It is a beautiful collection celebrating the childhood memories that make us who we are today. This seasons collection was dedicated to my grandparents who unselfishly gave their love and time to my brother and I growing up. They lived up at Deka Lake where we spent every Summer and enjoyed every last minute of it. It's detailing and styling is symbolic of life in the country. I started the collection over a year ago and we launched the collection this month. Last week my grandfather passed away sadly at the age of 89 - I am proud to dedicate this collection to him and to thank him for giving me all the wonderful gifts of love that he unconditionally gave and for providing me with so many wonderful memories that have made me the person I am today, and that I can pass on to my children. Please enjoy the collection and cherish your little ones. Each day is a gift.

Andhra, Erica Ehm and me, lunching at Bowl in Toronto

Road Trip

Despite going to Toronto during the biggest snow storm in 30 some odd years, Andhra and I survived a whirlwind trip to Toronto last week. Our saving grace was the GPS system, whom we appropriately named "loupy lou", although she always got us where we needed to go, it wasn't without making many loupyloo turns. We had a great visit with the Savvy Mom team, a yummy lunch at Bowl (Savvy Mom approved) with yummy mummy Erica Ehm. We finally got to meet the lovely store owners that have been selling Peekaboo Beans and also got to introduce the line to several new stores that will be carrying the line in Fall 2008. One highlight in particular was navigating down the road to our next store visit, turning and seeing an amazing Peekaboo Beans window display in this funky fabulous kids store, again, approriately named Funky Baby, in the Beaches area. It made the four hour flight delay coming home a little more palatable!!

Sweetheart Ball

Peekaboo Beans was a proud Sponsor at the Rethink Breast Cancer "The Little Sweetheart Ball", last Sunday. Funds raised help young people who are concerned about and affected by breast cancer. This babylicious affair was full of activities for socialites big and small, including a fabulous little fashion show featuring our little harijuku girls and ninja boys! Check out these fab photos. Thank you to all the volunteers and people who put on such a wonderful event for a very important cause.

Fumbling Towards.....

Peekaboo Beans....?!

We have added Sarah McLachlan to the Peekaboo Beans fan base (who would have thought)!

I went out to collect the mail the other day and sifted through the pile of endless bills as per usual and to my delight received a lovely gold embossed letter from Singer Songwriter and Canadian icon, Sarah McLachlan, hand written and personalized. As you can imagine, we were thrilled to receive such an gracious letter!

It was worth getting all the bills that day!

Thinking Green

In our goal to be concious of how our business affects the environment, we might not move mountains (yet), but we are trying to do our part. We recently donated 700 school bags to the Wind and Tide preschool. These bags were created from scrap and end of roll fabric that might otherwise end up in the landfills. A big thank you to Togi Garments that donated their time and effort in sewing the bags for the school. The bags will be used for things like bringing books, show and tell and snacks back and forth to school. Our next project for the school are art smocks for all the little Van Gogh's!
