Where children sleep...

bouji & nouna just came across the book Where Children Sleep” by James Mollison. 
On this fantastic book ,Photographed over two years with the support of Save the Children (Italy),James Mollison compare children of the world and the places where they sleep. 
bouji & nouna found this book really inspiring and encourage children to think about inequality. 
Well, we think It's a great way for you and child to sit down together and see how other children all over the world live, and the best part is the cover graphic GLOWS IN THE DARK-How fun is that!







And don’t forget….

bouji & nouna's Crib Bedding and Shadow Pillows are a great way to start stimulants your child’s imagination and curiosity!

Were dreams come true...

So this is where it's all happening, a good size room in our home that was declared as our studio!

We admit, we're not a very tidy people, so most of the things we've got are kept away from sight...
On this room you can find everything you'll ever dreamt off... naturally all of the items we finished are also here but except for them you can also find ribbons, buttons, vintage and new fabrics, some fine art and folk ornaments, and books, lots of book that inspire us all the time....
This room is our favorite one in our house and for several reasons. The most important one is that we filled it with all of the items that we love and inspire us to create:



On our studio / room you just can't miss some original paintings drawn by bouji & nouna creator - Inbar Lahav Elgarisi.
The one on the right is kind of a self portrait of her with bouji when he was a baby...
The one on the left was drawn while she was pregnant with nouna...
we keep saying that she's inspired by her children, so here a great example of how they inspire her...
We LOVE those drawing and wish she was doing some more of them...
for some resone she just can't find the time... :)


We always have some great ideas, all the time, while doing other things... that's why we have so many notebooks on our desk... and those are just the ones we don't use right now. We're having notebooks all over our home and on our bag too so if we'll have a good idea he won't go away....
As we said before, we're not a very organized people... so we don't have an organized inspiration wall (if someone has a tip on that one we would love to hear it...). This is our idea for inspiration board. Full of THANK YOU notes we received worldwide, fabric swatches; some notes we wrote to ourselves ECT. We don't know if this is what the one who invented the inspiration had in mind but it work for us, so... it's fine with us.

Inbar's mom, our grandma, inspired her to start the whole bouji & nouna adventure... so it's only natural that some of the items here will be hers.
She an artist at heart and since she retired, she's doing so fan mosaic art... here an example that being used in our room...
we just love the colors on this item, made out of green and blue glass...
And also we can't forget the arts and crafts book collection she gave us that fill us with inspiration just by looking at them! It's not the whole of them, sadly because of a lake in space some of them are still in boxes, but we love them just as much...
