Shop closed Fri & Sat 20/11 & 21/11 November 20, 2009
Unfortunately Baiti, our lovely shop manager will be on leave until the 26th of November 
What this means to our customers is that we are doing our best to get your shipping orders to you on time, but there might be some delays as we’ve a LOT going on right now, so please expect 1 or 2 days of delay and perhaps slower email response time.
We’ve no choice but to close the Ampang Park store this Fri and Sat, but we will be open on Sun 22/11 onwards.
Our deepest sympathies and regrets with Baiti and we wish her a smooth recovery (As smooth as these things can go at any rate).
Wishing you all the best Baiti!
Filifele – at Tiny Tapir’s BV booth November 14, 2009
We’re happy to have selected Filifele products at our booth - repurposed / rescued fabric made into super cute new useful stuff! What’s not to love?
Here’s all about Filifele in their own words :
Filifele is a group of people that love the challenge of exploring the recycled materials and sometimes fusing them with new ones to create a functional artwork.
Our first batch of products is inspired by the China’s traditional “100 cloth” collage series, which believed to bring luck and energy to everyone. We believe this remarkable traditional art should be bringing back. Beside kept the traditional element, we also insert some new element to make it more modernize.
‘’Here is no stunning masterpiece but some little stuff may send the greatest warmth to you. Stay aware for those things surrounding you, breathtaking little surprises are always waiting.’’ ~ Filifele

Grobaby – diaper change November 9, 2009
Check out this video demonstrating how to change the grobaby inserts without getting your hands dirty
New product – beautiful Glass Straws November 5, 2009
Check out our Dharma Glass Straws. I love my Decorative Dots straw and LOVE using it (on a daily basis).
These have a lifetime guarantee, and are hand glass blown in the USA. Super hard and sturdy Borosilicate Glass.
Just beautiful, and drinking from them just seems to make life a lot more… stylish. There’s nothing like a cheap plastic straw to take away from the whole drinking experience – you won’t know what I mean until you’ve tried your own glass straw.
It’s a state of mind baby!
Of course, not to mention you’re not using up yet another bit of plastic (used for 5 minutes, hanging around our planet for hundreds of years).
