We couldn't be happier with the number of cool and creative entries you've sent through for the Retailer of the Year contest... so many gorgeous pictures and descriptions of just why these boutiques have captured your heart.

This is the best gift you could possibly share with us. Thank you!!

For my part, I will now take a handful of days off and enjoy the holiday time with best friends & family. Signing off for 2010 and see you in the New Year :)

Give Love / I'm with Freedom

As we count down to beautiful holidays, we invite you to join us in Stockholm's Old Town, Gamla Stan, at the Christmas Fair (running this year all the way up to December 23).

Pick up some glogg (lovely mulled wine) then browse the stalls on Stortorget for local hand-crafts, gifts and foods... and give love, always.

Kram!

Karin, please meet Tilda

I just received pictures of this beautiful handmade Odd Molly doll from "Dulce" in Barcelona.

.

Dulce's doll's name is Tilda and the creation was inspired by our very own Karin dolls. Dulce spotted an original Karin doll in a Spanish boutique carrying our collections and - like us all - she adored her immediately.

Thank you once again, Chris, and thank you Dulce!

Hmmmmm... which cinematic (and literary) phenom could it be, I wonder. Maybe you have best guesses?
