Life with Kids Series: Crayon Creatures

Next up in our Life with Kids series is this amazing company that's been all over Pinterest lately. Barcelona based Crayon Creatures, takes your child's work of art and turns it into an actual work of art! It's no wonder the city that produced Gaudi would also have an artist that really appreciates the weird wonderfulness that is a child's drawing.

Each piece is digitally modeled by an artist who turns a 2D drawing into a 3D sculpture. The new model is printed with a 3D printer in full color sandstone material to produce a priceless keepsake for you and your child.

The great news is, they ship internationally! Prices are $120 USD + $20 shipping.

Can't wait to get one for Avnee!

Handmade kantha quilts in Chatelaine Magazine

We are so thrilled OM home's kantha quilts are featured in the January issue of Chatelaine! 

One of a kind, each blanket is unique. OM home has partnered with the Baljit and Bahené collective in Tilijala, Kolkata to recreate the traditional kantha quilt. Our quilts are made with layers of new sari fabric that softens and becomes more rippled and comfortable after each wash.  

If you look closely, you’ll see the collective’s initials are embroidered on each quilt.

OM home's partnership with Baljit and Bahené was formed in collaboration with longtime family friend, Shamita Das Dasgupta, a prominent leader combating violence against women of South Asian descent. Dasgupta works with the collective, provides necessary supplies, and pays them directly for their work.

Baljit and her collective are currently in production. If you are interested in twin, full/queen, or king size quilts please email us at orders[at]omhome[dot]com, and we will advise when larger sizes are available.

Kantha baby quilts are currently available at www.omhome.com.
