New product launching at St. Jerome's Festival!

You'll have to come to St. Jerome's Laneway Festival to get a first touch of these new leather ipod nano covers!.... of course you can put lots of other things in these pouches if you don't own a nano... keys, loose change, a small set of pencil crayons? Made in Perth (of course). Available from Saturday onwards.

Six Thousand & Laneway Festival

Hope you all know about the Six Thousand website by now... if not you're missing out! Especially those new to Perth need to check out their cool website telling you about all those Perth hidden treasures & cool things to go see. They have sister sites for Melbourne, Sydney, Brisbane and Adelaide which are really worth checking out and a great way of writing that makes you chuckle!

They are also responsible for the Laneway Markets happening this Saturday at St Jerome's Laneway Festival so if you are lucky enough to have tickets we'll see you there. If not if you join up to their newsletter you could win two tickets to the Festival.

Beck's Music Box

You may have already seen the giant lightbox illustration we did for Beck's Music Box. We spotted our illustrations used in this years catalogue - the lightbox should be on display again this year but if you miss it this is what it looks like!

St Jerome's Laneway Festival - 6th February 2010

We're rocking down to the Laneway Festival on 6th Feb to show our Future Shelter wares to the crowds. Don't worry, neither of us will be singing but we will be showing some of our latest new music related products - stand by for more details!

Design for Peter Alexander

As you know we do a lot of work for other companies - Little Design Horse studio did this print design for Peter Alexander in his stores now - mmmm ice cream! Available on pants and shorts to match.

Wall Decals

We've decided next month is "Wall Decal" month! This means lots of new designs and colours. As we have the machine to make them we can scale designs and even do commissioned pieces... so stand by! Above : Dino Roar (A$35), Bird Tree (A$90), The Queue (with optional bus stop) available in two sizes small (A$35) and large (A$65)

We're on the Frankie blog today!

I remember when I encountered the first issue of Frankie. I was living in London and used to come to Melbourne and Sydney to sell designs (how lucky was I!). Not only was I really excited to be on this side of the world, but I was so exited to find Frankie. I'd never seen a magazine with such a nice mix of articles where you actually read the whole magazine and look at nice photos and art. Frankie wasn't available in London at the time so I felt it was my special secret!

Thanks Frankie!

New opening times

We're gradually extending our opening hours. We are now open from 10am to 6pm Wednesday to Friday... yeah! Above: simple hanging birds mobile suitable for 2 - 102 year olds!

Billion Dollar View - upcycling

We have Billion Dollar View lampshades in stock. 32 x 36cm - why not upcycle that old lampstand in the garage or nanna's house and make it into a piece of art! Price $240. We take telephone orders and can ship anywhere in Australia... cool!

Welcome to 2010 - the doors are open again!

Ok, I'm sorry to see our Christmas message get stripped off our window today but we have to make room for the new year.... its going to be full of exciting new things which we can't wait to share!

Christmas and New Year - closed until Wed 13th Jan

We will be taking a very well deserved rest over the New Year. Thanks to all our fans who have helped us grow over the last year! We have far too many ideas for 2010 already so they'll be lots more to come!

We will reopen on Wednesday 13th January 2010.

The Story of Stuff - everyone should watch this

The Story of Stuff

Online Shop

Top priority for the New Year is the online shop. If you want to be the first to hear about its opening make sure you join our Facebook page.... they will be the first to know! Link on the right side bar! >>>>

That's it folks - the last product to hit our shop this year!

We've worked hard to finish those final requests before Christmas! That's it - no more! We created this tree based on our display tree we have in the shop. Could possibly be used as a Christmas tree but then all year round as a jewellery stand, or key stand near the door... we love products with a dual use!

Tuesday 22nd December - open until 7pm

Everyday Life - new colours! By Sophie Henson Also we have a range of her prints in store exclusive to Little Design Horse. Sophie has been working on lots of new bits and pieces for designers around the world. Her work is one to collect. If you're looking for a gift for a design friend - we think one of her Ts designed for Future Shelter or one of her illustration prints is sure to please!

We're open Monday from 10-6pm!

We're open today - yeah! Come and say hello. Above : King's Park coasters

Sunday opening today! 10-4pm

Come and relax in our aircon. That's what I'll be doing today. I'll busy making the last few things before Christmas.... we have one more thing to release that we have several orders for already.... photos to come later today!

Extreme DJ

A glimpse our latest Future Shelter T designed for amateur and pro DJs!

Extreme DJ new T now in the shop - yeah!

We finished it just in time for Christmas - yes cutting it fine but it was a brand new design which we didn't think we'd get done in time. I'll post a photo later!

Late night Friday - open until 7pm tonight

Keychain stocking fillers - cool! $8 each beautifully engraved in Angove St

Open until 9pm tonight!

Fed up with been pushed around in the mad rush before Christmas? I would recommend stopping by Little Design Horse shop tonight followed by dropping into the Flying Taco for a bite to eat and a Mexican beer at the same time.

There is plenty of parking right outside and we don't do Christmas music - now that has to be better than the Karrinyup crush!
