Craft project: Animal party candles

2013-06-18T19:48:58+08:00

Hooray! Party time! BloesemKids won the magnificant Beast Best Awards from Newsweeks' online home The Daily Beast.... meaning an award for the sites, apps and twitter feeds they are obsessed with right now.

And to celebrate this Veronique thought of some fun party decoration ...

I could not have won this award without talented and loyal contributors like Véronique so I feel the award is also for her. I'm sure with Nora being our new member we will live up to our award ...

Sponsor spotlight: Mosey Handmade

2013-06-18T08:27:52+08:00

Feeling special on your birthday that is probably what count most for a child ... and wearing a handmade Mosey crown will do just that!

I think these crowns are so perfect .... every little detail is well-thought of ... must be the Waldorf inspired ideas that owners Jes and Stephanie use when making them. Totally understandable why Mothering Magazine awarded Mosey's crowns as one of the Best Natural Toys.

Monday's quick start: alphabet frames

2013-06-17T08:40:11+08:00

- Irene and Rik -

Not only were Rik and I celebrating Father's Day yesterday we also drank champagne wearing our Bronze Medals .... yes 12,5 years happily married to the Love of my Life!

Fun to see these alphabet-frames by Chiaozza this morning ... how matching!

I believe these frames are so decorative for a kids room. You can order your letter and Chiaozza custom-design and make them for you.

Sponsor spotlight: studio Pimpelmees

2013-06-13T12:07:37+08:00

Two sisters, one studio and a wonderful collection paper products ... that is studio Pimpelmees from the Netherlands. Starting out with unqiue and stylish birth announcements followed by other cards, small canvasses and customized wedding invitations studio Pimpelmees now also sells cool wall murals!

and their latest addition is a collection of beautiful wall murals ... 'butterflies and birds', the 'deep sea' or 'fly away' they will all make a sublime wall in your child's room.

[MORE BELOW THE FOLD]

I was just thinking if I were to have daycare centre I would consider hanging these murals on one of the walls ... I'm sure kids will just dream away by looking at the patterns.

A new Craft Contributor

2013-06-11T21:06:31+08:00

How wonderful to be able to introduce you today to a new craft contributor.

Nora Vrba is one of those women that I highly admire ... just when she decided to quite her job as an art-director she was diagnosed with breast-cancer .... after intense treatment everybody is really happy that the future looks very bright and positive again ... when Nora regained her energy and decided she wanted to start her own label in party-accessories ... and voila La Fête is here.

I believe it was on pinterest that I first noticed Nora's impeccable taste and style and therefore I am thrilled she will be contributing tutorials and craft projects to our craft section here on BKids on a reglar basis. Together with the projects from Veronique I am hoping to bring you many many nice new craft ideas.

Beautiful and unique cake-toppers, party-hats, pompoms and dress-up items all available in Nora's online shop La Fête.

Monday's quick start: kitu-tuki

{A/W2013 by KituTiku}

If you look at my 'kids-fashion' posts you might recognise a pattern ... often do I share fashion labels with a Japanese influence ... must be my love for delicate styles, soft colors and funky patterns.

It is only logical when an email from kitutuki arrives in my inbox that I immediately have the urge to share it with you.... you like this brand too? [MORE IMAGES]
