A Mooo review ... and a giveaway too {Blogtoberfest day 30}



When Ben at Mooo Design contacted me recently and asked if I would like to review a product, I was delighted. Yes, yes, yes I would!

If you're not familiar with Mooo Design, its an Australian store online, that specialises in unique baby and children's gifts and clothing. They offer a range of really beautiful personalised products for baby, toddlers and kids. Their website is brimming with eye candy.



Anyway, Ben's offer was serendipitious. Back here at Chez Hoppo Bumpo, I'd been bemoaning the fact that the main wall in the playroom was looking a bit shabby (read: decorated with tattered Star Wars posters and some unauthorised orange pencil). So I asked whether I might review the (removable) Chalkboard Wall Stickers.

And this is what turned up - a beautiful mixed pack of large stars, space ships, cars, robots and other fun shapes.



Argy and Bargy were pretty excited and gave me a hand with putting the stickers up. The shapes were up in no time at all and looked fantastic (see above).



The boys have really loved drawing and "writing" on the fun shapes. The robots and cars have been particularly popular.



Even after being heavily decorated, the high quality chalkboard wipes perfectly clean with a soft cloth. Fabulous!



If you are looking for a fun way to decorate a wall at home - or for a gift idea - I can highly recommend these Wall Stickers. With a range of shapes and sizes to choose from, what's not to love?

A special thanks to Mooo Design for your generosity - you've transformed our playroom!



Now for the fun bit for you.

When I was looking around the Mooo Design website I noticed that the store has gift certificates. So, I would like to give one reader a gift: a voucher to the value of AUD$20 to use for a spot of shopping at Mooo Design.

To be in the running all you need to do is leave a comment here (... and don't forget to go take a look around Mooo Design, too!).

Please make sure that you leave a valid link or e-mail address so that I can contact you if you win. Everyone is welcome to enter. I will randomly draw a winner from the people who have commented before midnight on Sunday 31 October (local time, Melbourne Australia) the following morning. The gift voucher will be e-mailed.

Good luck!

EDIT: Entries have now closed for the giveaway.

  9. Do those chalkboard stickers come with children who only draw 'within the lines'?

    Cooper has taken a liking to drawing on our studio whiteboard that we use for brainstorming, tasks etc, but there appears to be some pink and blue lines that have gone beyond the white bit. Then again, maybe it was Nicole when i wasn't looking?

  25. So cool, Liesl! I think I'd use them in the kitchen, though...write my shopping list on a planet or a robot...

    ReplyDelete
  26. I'm totally sold on the idea of those stickers... Particularly after my own disasters with chalkboard paint. It'd be great to have something, um, removable for the boys to draw on!

    ReplyDelete
  27. Oh - these would be great in the kids play room - love that they have so many things for boys too:)

    ReplyDelete
  28. Very cute stickers! The Bug's not so good at drawing within the lines yet, so I might need to send him on a course ;)

    ReplyDelete
  29. Oh cool! I'm a bit on Wendy's wavelength, would totally put them in the kitchen for some recipe writing and lists and stuff!
