Tiny Babies SG is an online baby essentials boutique with a good range of reasonably-ranged, quality products suitable for newborn babies. This helps in saving time for parents without the hassle of physically hunting down malls to look for the perfect baby clothes.

As the name "Tiny Babies" imply, this brand was inspired by premie and tiny babies who may be born prematurely - flustered parents of these babies usually find it really challenging to find clothes for them. Tiny Babies SG aim to fill that gap, providing clothing ranging from tiny sizes to normal newborn sizes.


Tiny Babies SG is not only suitable for parents buying clothes and towels for their own children - they are also a great source for personalised baby gifts (think newborn gift, full month or baby christening).

Look at this set right here (worth SGD$178.00) - an extremely stunning Princessy set for my baby, complete with her name on it, and useful items such as romper, beret, socks, shoes and towel.

And how about this darling set (worth SGD$118.00) with the adorable fluffy bunny and towel. You can see that the gift is customised with my baby girl's name as well.

I have previously ordered a baby hamper for my friend as well- the experience was impeccable. Tiny Babies SG was able to do Chinese characters for my friend's baby's name, and they delivered the hamper within 2 days! Learning that the last character of baby's name ("Xiong") resembled "bear" in Chinese, Tiny Babies SG even cute-ify the hamper with bear designs to match.

Besides baby apparel, towels, shoes and plush toys, Tiny Babies SG also offers customised flash cards, books and craft sets. It's a lovely one-stop online shopping haven for baby stuff.

Personally, I really love this idea by thoughtful founder Zlata and her hubby Rege. Thank you for making shopping such a beautiful experience,  sourcing for these quality items for babies, and personalizing them.

Baby’s Breath Flowers Can Be Poisonous to Pets [Sponsored]

The tiny white flowers of Gypsophila are the beautiful Baby’s Breath flowers. They are a great as fillers because they complement just about any kinds of flowers in a bouquet. The Flower Delivery for any bouquet made by the Singapore Florist is sure to have the Baby’s Breath as part of the design or arrangement. Depending on how you want to leave an impression, the flowers of Baby’s Breath can be a versatile flower that you can use for a wide variety of designs and arrangements. You can send a hand bouquet or a special flower arrangement using this flower of Baby’s Breath. The florist in Singapore has the largest selections of designs for your gift of flowers.

However, this amazing tiny white dot of flowers can also be harmful to pets like dogs and cats. The Gypsophila is a part of the Caryophyllacae family. The flowers contain steroidal saponins which are known to cause possible serious intoxication to animals. The Gypsogenin is a typical type of toxin found in the Gypsophila family. Although it is not harmful to people, but it can cause gastrointestinal upset in mild to moderate level to animals when ingested. It may not be life-threatening to pets but ingestion of a sufficient amount of Gypsophila will be unhealthy to dogs and cats.

For first aid to pets that ingested the Gypsophila, treatment can be made at home for mild cases. The mouth of the pet should be rinsed thoroughly with clean water, removing any plant material left inside the mouth. If possible, inducing vomit may also be done through mixture of hydrogen peroxide and water. For 4 hours up to 24 hours, the pet will be able to make full recovery. In case the pet suffered from severe intoxication or severe gastrointestinal upset with persistent vomiting as well as diarrhea, professional medical attention should be given.

 The gift of Gypsophila or Baby’s Breath bouquet can be a special florist delivery to send and give to loved ones. It will be more fun and less the stress if the recipient will place the bouquet away from the reach of cats or dogs at home. The online florist can help in terms of tips and tricks in caring for the fresh flowers, but when it comes to medical or first-aid treatment for such cases, might as well know what you can do with it. The Flower Delivery of the flower gifts should be worthwhile and memorable and not a cause of problem.

I woke up to a courtesy call informing me that I had a hamper delivery right outside my door. So I opened the door, and was surprised to be greeted by a gorgeous food hamper by Simply Hamper. The entire packaging was in cream and gold notes, looking classy. The packets and boxes making up the contents of the hamper looked so delectable, I was tempted to rip the wrapping apart.

However, something caught my eye! My colored photo was grinning right back at me from the wrapper, with a personalized note wishing me a great week ahead! This bespoke touch warmed my heart, making me feel so proud. Immediately I knew that this was going to be the perfect way to send food hampers to my clients during the upcoming festive seasons!

Unwrapping the Splendour (Non-alcoholic) Hamper (SGD$115.00), I was really happy to find many unique and quality snacks sourced worldwide. In my years of sending and receiving food hampers, I always see things like Pocky sticks, Ferrero Rocher chocolates and Tong Garden nuts, etc - don't get me wrong, I have nothing against them, but it's just that I have been overdosing on them all these years during festive seasons :)   It was very refreshing to find Lotus Biscoff, Synders pretzels, Hamlet Belgium chocolates etc in my Splendour Hamper, and my teeth were itching to sink in.

To share a little about Simply Hamper - it is founded by Mr. Alexis Tan, who also owns the well-known florist, Simply Blooms. Specialising in hamper delivery Singapore, Simply Hamper is a social enterprise with strong beliefs that a Singapore hamper should be able to convey care and kindness to recipients, and contain practical items that are useful to them. Simply Hamper has a wide range of hampers for every occasion, such as baby & mommy hampers, fruit hampers, wellness hampers and food hampers. The categories are further sub-categorized to make it easy for shoppers, for instance under "Wellness Hamper" category, there are 4 sub-categories namely "Classic", "Tonic", "Wellness" and "Organic", making it very easy and user-friendly to search for what is most suitable for us.

How To Personalize Your Gift Hamper
Step 1: select your preferred food hamper from here
Step 2: choose your preferred template best suited for your occasion
Step 3: upload an image or logo of choice, along with a personalized message
Step 4: complete your order and wait for your recipients to be surprised.

From food to flowers to wine to tea to cheesecake and perfume, Simply Hamper has everything you could possibly hope to gift someone special. Oh, did I also mention that they offer free delivery service with no minimum spending?

Since I received my first hamper from them, I have never used anyone else whenever I want to do food hampers delivery with personalised wishes or congratulatory blossoms to my clients, friends and loved ones. Alexis and team provide excellent service so efficient, that they don't merely surprise my recipients, but I am often surprised by them as well.

Are you looking for food hampers delivery for a special occasion right now? Look no further, click here for the answer to your prayers now.

Thank you Simply Hamper for the gorgeous hamper, and for providing impeccable service for all my business / personal orders, never disappointing me once!

Imagine coming home from a short trip overseas to find a basket of fresh flowers (roses, namely), centered around the sweetest Teddy Bear - delivered right to my doorstep. My exhaustion dissipated immediately as I took in the fragrance of the roses and shy smile of the stuffed bear - thank you Floral Garage for the awesome arrangement.

Who / what is the Floral Garage? Well, they would like to be the best florist in Singapore, offering a wide range of products from fresh flowers (hand bouquets, flower arrangements, gift baskets) to flower stands to dried flowers, terrariums, party supplies, gift hampers, stuffed animals and condolences flowers / wreaths etc.   They offer same-day delivery so feel free to contact them for urgent orders, and the BEST part is that they give back to society through fundraisers and floral arrangement workshops etc.

With a website that is super easy to manoeuvre and fun to browse, it makes for easy ordering. However, I took a while to select what I wanted because their array of products is aplenty, and everything looks equally gorgeous to me! Finally, I decided to go for my favourite roses and bear combination, so "Love Is In The Air" (SGD$149.90) and I found each other.

I had to fill out a simple order form, and the beautiful flower gift basket arrived within hours. The roses were dewy as though they had just been watered! Importantly, my gift basket also resembled how it looks online, no gimmicks at all - quality is definitely there.

Thank you Floral Garage for the wonderful experience and stunning flower hamper; I will definitely be happy to support you and recommend you to friends shopping for gifts to surprise their loved ones, or show their appreciation for their spouses / family members or friends.  The holiday season is here so wait no longer - start arranging your gifts today and do check out their Winter Collection 2017!

[Invited Tasting] Wine Tasting at 75CL @ Bukit Merah

A hidden gem among Bukit Merah's office and industrial district, 75CL (formerly known as "E-wine Gallery" is home to more than 56 types of wine and spirits from all over the world. It is also the e-commerce spin-off from the leading alcohol distributor Magnum Spirits and Wine.

If you think that it is merely another wine shop or wine storage hub, the surprise is about to be revealed - herein lies Singapore's largest Wine Tasting Lab, equipped with all that you need to ensure a happy wine selection process!

See the U-shaped console with small taps and basins? Yes, that's for customers / testers to rinse their palate in between trying different types of wine. Handy, and professional, ain't it? The basins definitely make it easier, and more hygienic to spit the wine (after rolling it around the palate) than buckets or 'spittoons' for that purpose.

Also beating traditional methods of having sales staff pouring wine for you to try,  these shelves contain bottles of wine neatly for you to study and choose from. Each tasting portion starts from SGD$3.00 onwards.

The Card

Your Wine Glass

Select the amount of wine required for tasting

Once you are ready, insert the Card (it will be issued to you when you are here). Jab the small buttons to choose the amount you want to try and hold your wine glass beneath the tap. Then Voila! - your wine is served!

The crew, especially Bahrin and Nisha, are very friendly and knowledgeable, readily sharing information about their concept, their selection of wine, and making suitable recommendations.

We also visited the upper level, where the wine collection is mostly from Australia and New Zealand. A cushy sitting area is available for guests to get comfortable, or hold functions / events at.

Thinking of buying the perfect gift for a special occasion? Their bright yellow gift boxes ought to keep your recipients bright and cheery! Pair the wine with some special Italian goodies to make it more complete.

Drop by now to hunt for your favorite wine (their testing selections change every week). You may also choose to order their wine online - same day delivery available; free delivery above SGD$150.00. You never have to risk spending big bucks on lousy wine now - not when you get to try a whole lot before coming to a decision!

Worry not if you feel a little tipsy after wine tasting - here's coffee to perk you up!

All right now, here's the end of our marvellous wine tasting session; and a very enjoyable one. Thank you 75CL for the invite!
