Vintage toys garland from Lapin and Me
Looking for an unusual way to decorate a kids room? Take a look at this vintage toys garland available from Lapin and Me.
The garland is 2.5 metres long and sits on just the right side of kitsch. It combines images of vintage toys and accessories with the word 'toys', spelt out in retro typography. Hung together using fluorescent orange tape, it would add the perfect touch of colour to a child's room.
The garland costs £8.

Fiell Fashion Sourcebook: 1920s
Fiell Publishing launch a new book series with their Fiell Fashion Sourcebook: 1920s.
The series aims to examine the fashions of the twentieth century decade by decade. This book (as the name suggests) takes a look at the twenties. There's an introduction that puts the fashion into context before it heads onto the main reason for buying this book – the images. There's over 600 of them for inspiration, spread over the 576 pages of the book, including photographs, illustrations and advertising.
If this has fired your enthusiasm, you'll be pleased to hear the next in the series – looking at the fashions of the 1930s – is due out at the end of the June.
The book is currently available for £21.21 on Amazon.
