Girasol Folia is here

Folia is a realy autumn beauty! The bright orange weft makes the wrap cozy and warm - the last reminder of the summer days. Brown, red, green, orange an yello represent all the color richness of the coming seasong. Enjoy the fall wearing your baby in the Girasol Folia.

Girasol Amitola has arrived!

Isn't he amazingly crazy?

Girasol Amitola

There is still shortage of cotton in Guatemala due to the storm Agatha which occurred in May this year. A lot of processes are delayed. Due to these reasons the first batch of Exclusive Girasol Amitola will be not very big.

About Girasol Amitola

I have been getting quite a few questions about our exclusive Girasol Amitola. :) That's positive and I so much want to share the swatch, but I promised myself that it will be a surprise. However, I'm ready to reveal one important fact - Girasol Amitola will contain 39 girasol colors! I think it's going to be a crazy wrap. :)

Exclusive Girasols from Ukraine

The fans of the Girasol wraps have definitely heard about Girasol Mint and Girasol Blackberries - the exclusives of Slingopark, the Ukrainian store with baby wraps and carriers. Slingopark is the largest babywearing store in Ukraine carrying almost all popular brands of wraps and carriers. The store is managed by Nina in Kiev and has agents in all major cities of Ukraine. Alongside with babywearing products, Slingopark offers a good choice of cloths diapers, natural toys and breastfeeding accessories.

Girasol Folia

One more exclusive Girasol we are expecting in September 2010 - Girasol Folia! Designed by the same babywearing mother who designed our exclusives Girasol Lilia and Girasol Betula. It's not a surprise in this case that Girasol Folia will be in the same style as our Girasol Betual, but with more colors. :)

Folia comes from the Latin "folium", which means "leaf". Girasol Folia was inspired by the beautiful fall, with it's amazing colors - brown, red, orange, yellow, green.

On the store site you can read some words from the desinger herself. She tells about her inspiration for our Girasol Folia.

GIrasol Amitola: color Verde Oasis

Today is Friday, so I'm answering 1 question about one of the colors of Girasol Amitola and posting the picture.

Here it is: Verde Oasis

New Exclusive: Girasol Amitola

We are getting a new exclusive in August 2010 - Girasol Amitola. It's very exciting, he promises to be very unusual. I very much would like to post a swatch and ask what you guys think about it, but... I will not! :) Though, I'm ready to answer the questions. :) You can aks me "does Amitola have such and such color?" And I will reply "yes" if it does, and "no" if it does not. Let's see how long it takes before all the colors are known!

UPD: I will answer 1 question and post 1 picture of the color every week on Friday! :)

Manduca Blue Velvet

Manduca heeft weer een nieuwe editie: Manduca Blue Velvet - slechts 3000 stuks. De klanten van SlingoMama mogen nu pre-orderen. De Manduca Blue Velvet is verwacht begin juli 2010.

Girasol Drop

Girasol Drop is the most unusual of our exclusives. When we posted the swatch of the future wrap, most people wrote that the color combination looks strange, unusual and they don't know what to think about it. Honestly, I also did not know what to expect even though I was sure it would be a unique wrap.

And the result is great! Girasol Drop is the next popular SlingoMama exclusive after Symphuo and Donau.

About all Exclusive Girasols in one place

Ola from Poland has started a very interesting project - a blog about all Exclusive Girasols. She publishes lots of interesting information about Exclusive Girasols, their owners. There you can read about SlingoMama Exclusive Girasols as well.

Ola has collected amazing information and foto's from the owners of Girasol.de - Camilla and Gerhard. You can see fotot's from 1980's of Camilla and Gerhard, and of people from Guatemala, who weave Girasol wraps.

Girasol Betula

Girasol Betula has arrived - and she does look like real Betula tree! Just like Betula tree at our neighbour's house, in from of my office window. Green and fresh.

Didymos Nino Tussah Natural

Better late than never! Didymos Nino Tussah Natural is available at SlingoMama web store. Limited quantities as usual.

Tussah silk is also called wild silk. It is darker than the cultivated silk, also known as mulberry silk. The reason of such dark color is the diet of the worms. They live in their natural conditions in the forests of China and eat leaves of Arjun, Asan and Oak trees.

The fibers of Tussah silk are shorter and stronger than the fibers of the cultivated silk. It feels less "silky" as well.

The new edition of Nino with Tussah silk is amazing due to the contrast of white cotton and coffee-creme silk.

Girasol Donau

I could write a very long post about Girasol Donau - he is beautiful, special, matches all your outfits, the eyes of your precious little ones, makes you think about your last vacation near the seaside, bla, bla, bla.... But I won't write it. You, our beloved fans of Girasols, know it yourself. So I just post the foto's. I think they speak for themselves.
