Hi everyone - my best friends just had a beautiful new baby
What sort of gift would you recommend getting the child - I'm after something that will last and remind her of her special day
Thanks - Michelle

What is the budget? Does she have everything she needs?

Have a look at Nancy Tillman books. On the night you were born is lovely

A nice photo frame so they can put their very first pictures (which were probably taken at the hospital) in it. You could get a personalised one with the baby's name and date of birth.

My first years do a teddy bear where you can have babys name on.

hello, just a suggestion but I'm a mum in East Lothian and I illustrate childrens names at my website namepictures.co and facebook [email protected]. here's a sample! I hope this isnt being cheeky! and I hope you find something nice, even if it's not one of my fabulous paintings!

Wow Fatpuffin - that's a beautiful illustration. Her name is Florence - I'll go ahead and order one tomorrow. Mum will be thrilled at that. Thank you so much. Michelle x

Gosh thanks cosmoa! I would love to. I just took a peek at your insta and I love your stuff, very fine patterns and lovely colours. Just need to borrow me a baby!

hellsbells552 · 05/09/2018 22:44

Hi @fatpuffin, would you mind pm’ing me your full web address as I can’t seem to find you! 🙁

fatpuffin · 05/09/2018 23:02

Will do! Thanks for asking.! Leigh [email protected] is my facebook name. I'll pm you more details. I'm chuffed that you are interested!

hellsbells552 · 05/09/2018 23:04

Yeah I tried searching on FB as well but no luck! Maybe I’m just being dim?!

Justkeeprollingalong · 05/09/2018 23:06

Beautiful but the characters seem to spell Evie but the text says Sophie?

fatpuffin · 05/09/2018 23:21

Ahhh! Sorry guys! Apparantly look up @namepictures.co to find me on Facebook. The website is name pictures.co (just .Co. To get .co.UK was a £1000 more!). As for why it says Sophie for a picture of Evie, er, think I've moved stuff around and not changed something. Thanks for pointing it out! Any other feedback welcome- I'm new to this ( selling) although I worked as an illustrator it was back in the dark ages ( pre kids)

fatpuffin · 05/09/2018 23:25

P.s cosmoa, just realised your model must be your daughter! She's gorgeous. Congratulations x

Crunchie14 · 06/09/2018 10:41

I still can't find you fatpuffin, please can you pm me xx

Cosmoa · 06/09/2018 11:15

@fatpuffin ahh thank you so much! She's a lovely little girl 😊 I did do adult clothes as you can see but I figured baby clothes would be quicker and easier for now whilst I have a baby haha ❤️

fatpuffin · 06/09/2018 19:20

Hi Crunchie 14, Ive managed to leave my phone at a friends and I cant seem to do a PM from my desktop. If you try www.facebook.com/namepictures.co/
or my website is namepictures.co it's good to know I can't be found! Now I can work out why. Thanks for your patience!
