Blabla's Spring Fling

If you live in the Atlanta area, then you are close to a very cool store that sells very cool little knit dolls and other things that will turn any frown upside-down. It's Blabla Kids, and it's a delight!

I first heard of Blablas from two of our nieces in Tennessee. Rebekah and Riley (otherwise known as "Beck" and "Ri") both wanted Blablas for Christmas last year, and the old man in the red suit delivered.

Not too long afterward, I was at Costco when I took an urgent call on my hand phone (what Koreans call cells) from my sister. She had just discovered that Blabla Kids was actually based in Atlanta--and there was a store! I kid you not--I went that very day.

A few weeks later, my sis and her fam visited, and we took a little drive on down to the Blabla shop. The folks there are super nice, and the window displays are as fun as the merchandise inside. We bought some little finger puppets that day. Gotta love finger puppets--they are so fun!

Anyway, if you're going to be around this weekend, you may want to check out Blabla's Spring Fling. Sounds like it's going to be a blast!

Here are a few photos from our Blabla visit back in February:


P.S. If you need any last-minute gift ideas for me (to clarify ... not for Kate ... for me), then here's a little something to think about. I don't know what the "last-minute" is for exactly ... but I think the sense of urgency adds a little something, don't you?

  2. love these blabla things. Maia has the butterfly backpack and coin purse to match and an elephant pocketbook as well. My friend owned a boutique here and sold them for a while and gave them to me in exchange for some design work.
