I just had to share these as they're sooo cute!
New in Friday to match our buzzy bee organic cotton baby clothes - these utterly gorgeous fair trade soft leather baby shoes!
Made from super soft leather with an anti-slip sole which is great for new walkers, these little baby shoes are made in sizes to fit little babies all the way to 2 year old toddlers.
Made in a fair trade factory in South Africa you can have your baby "bee" fair trade from tip to toe!
Makes A Change was founded on the principle that every choice we make makes a change somewhere, and by choosing to buy Fair Trade that choice can change someone's life.
We're now used to buying Fair Trade bananas and mangos, cotton and chocolate, but a young British designer has introduced an adorable range of bedroom decor for babies and children which is Fair Trade and absolutely beautiful!
She has two styles - a unisex jungle theme and a very girlie-girl fairy theme. At the time of writing we've got jungle stock of a snuggly, cuddly elephant cushion, big enough for a child to sit on, use as a pillow or just cuddle all night, and a bright, colourful jungle wall hanging with useful pockets and cute, floppy animals. For the fairy lovers, we have a very special fairy wall hanging, complete with a place to tie your wand, and pockets for "Fairy Secrets", "Fairy Flying Shoes" and "Fairy Jewels".
Our Fair Trade Fairy Cotton Bunting will brighten up any bedroom, or can be used as a pretty decoration at a birthday party. Finish off the fairy theme with our absolutely stunning hand made fairy mobile, with no two fairies the same.
But there's a very serious side to this whimsy. Over 40% of the producer's profits go to support community welfare projects, such as:
It's projects like these that really excite us at Makes a Change. Projects which are well run, properly managed (this one is certified by the International Fair Trade Association) and change communities. And by making really fun products of outstanding quality everyone wins!

I have to confess that I've got a bit of a thing for ladybirds. Not only are they exceptionally pretty, they're fantastic little garden insects, chomping their way through those naughty rose-eating aphids and cheering up the place to boot.
Did you know:

Like spots but not bugs? Why not take a look at our red spotty range then - again, organic, fairtrade cotton. We've got blankets and rompers in red, pink and the cuuutest baby blue with white spots - take a look!

New in - gorgeously comfortable, unbleached, absolutely natural fitted cot sheets in crisp flat cotton.
We already stock flannelette and jersey organic cotton cot and cot bed sheets, which are a fantastic match with our wonderful organic cotton cot and moses basket mattresses. This fabric is the crisper cotton used for children's and adult bedding and is just lovely for the summer as it's cooler than flannelette or jersey.
Also available in a two-pack of flat, not fitted organic cotton cot sheets which can either be used as a base sheet, or on top of baby underneath a blanket (or just on its own if it's really hot).
New In! Our gorgeously colourful and summery Bambinex Birth to Potty wraps offer incredible value.
In three lovely colours, these wraps will fit little teeny babes - and big toddlers, too! With an adjustable top to bottom size using an ingenious popper system, plus highly adjustable velcro wait fitting, these nappy wraps are an absolute must.
They're cotton wraps, too, so more breathable on the outer than the plastic fabrics used by other brands such as Tots Bots or Motherease, and the PUL lining is brilliantly leak proof. The fabric is Oeko-Tex certified free of nasty chemicals, so they're great for babies with sensitive skin or eczema. Click Here to See!
