One of my favourite ways to brighten up a kids room is to hang up a garland or some bunting. Even the most blah space can instantly come to life with one of these. And of course no kiddy party can be complete without bunting. Currently my favourites are these beautiful handmade ones by Numero 74 which include garlands made from vintage fabrics, crochet garlands and more. And they’ve just added party packs to their range with bunting adorned invitation cards and the prettiest party bags I’ve seen.
You’ll find all these at Mokkasin which is fast becoming a favourite shop of mine not just because of their wonderful selection but also their photo styling is so stunning like in these picture above.

Sunday in colour…
December 3, 2012
Once in a while a drop of sunshine falls in to my inbox and brightens my day. This is definitely one of those times. When I visited Sunday in Colour I felt like someone had just given me the warmest hug ever. This is a new US store that has the most colourful European brands on offer and sells quilts, soft toys, nursery decorations and more Started by a French mama now settled in San Francisco, Sonia is addicted to bold prints and patterns for both boys and girls. You won’t find separate boys and girls sections in this store but instead it’s lashings of colour and vibrant, eye-catching prints for all. Apart from the wonderful offerings, I also love the way that Sonia has photographed and presented everything. This is such a charming little store and one that really makes you feel all warm and fuzzy when you visit. Sunday in Colour only ships to the US at the moment but they plan to start international shipping in the new year.
UPDATE Jan 2013: Sunday in Colour now ships internationally.
Pretty paper clouds…
July 4, 2012
There is something so cheerful and celebratory about garlands. Hang them up in a kids room and they add an instant dose of happiness. I’m a huge fan of garlands for kiddy spaces and I can’t resist sharing when I see some as gorgeous as these. Hand made of paper and shaped like tiny clouds, these garlands come in a range of colourways. They’re the creation of Virginie Sannier, a French textile designer with a penchant for paper. Virginie also makes some lovely cards and stationery all of which you can view at her shop called Miavril. You’ll get these limited edition garlands there too but you can also try French Blossom who have a selection.
