When I make my son's advent calendar every year I like to mix physical presents and non physical ones that are more about sharing family time and creating special memories. So, I gathered some of my favourite ideas for little gifts and family activities to share them here with you.  If you don't have an advent calendar yet, you can find DIY ideas here.   LITTLE GIFTS Favorite treats and chocolates. Here we love lindt chocolate. Get a Lego box and divide the pieces in 24 lots. Very successful for a few years now.  Get a DIY box and divide in small lots.&nbs ..read more

I will create exclusive sticker sets that reflect the theme and essence of each collection for most of my upcoming drops. Just like the plush toys themselves, these stickers will be produced in limited quantities. I'll usually have about 10 of each design.   Every sticker is made of thick and durable vinyl, which protects it from scratches, water and sunlight. Some will have a transparent background, some will have a white background.  You can find all the stickers under the Limited Editions Collection.

Several times a year the group Handmade Art Plushies: The Heather Squad BST is running events where many plushie artists create pieces following a theme. It's always amazing to see what everyone creates and a very good place to discover many plushie makers. Sometimes inspiration can take time to hit, but not this time! I truly loved making those plushies and trying new techniques or brainstorming ways to make new flowers. I made a serie of three plushies that went up for DOND and two for RTB. The DOND format (Deal Or No Deal) is an auction style where people can place their bid under a plushie ..read more

I'm very happy to present to you the fruit of my collaboration with Aeryka Jackson the owner and baker behind Penelope's cookies. Aeryka has been baking since she was a child. In 2020, while every restaurant was shut down, she had a choice to make her own cookies or buy pre-made cookie dough from the store. She took out her ingredients to make her own and created her signature Kitchen Sink cookies! She then began making her way into crazy flavors -her words, not mine ;p - (Cotton Candy, Peach rings, Taro, Matcha,...) She ships mainly to the US and Canada, but feel free to reach out ..read more

I haven't wrote a blog post about books for a long time but today seems to be a great day to start and share again my love of kids literature.  What I particularly love about books is how they can bring you to question yourself and teach you how to understand and respect other cultures. I also love the discussion with my son arising from our readings. I think it's our work as parents to open our kids eyes on the world around them so we make it a better place for everyone.  Today is MLKD (Martin Luther King Day), Day of service in the United States. It's a day to commemorate Dr ..read more

Thank you all very much for following me since 2015! I'm happy to announce that 2023 will mark a new turning point for Petit Loulou... After long months of reflection, I decided to take a new direction for Petit Loulou. As you may know I had already stopped my collaboration with Simons at the beginning of last year, then my collaborations with shops across Canada and I have now made the decision to stop all my timeless collection. This decision was hard to make because I have been making these plushies for 8 years now, but it will allow me to better organize myself and fo ..read more
