Belle & Boo

| March 4, 2013

There’s a new range at John Lewis by Belle & Boo with some simply gorgeous children’s clothes and party accessories for boys and girls. One of my favourite dresses in the new collection is the Toys Long Sleeved Dress and I love the Party Bunting.

The creator of Belle & Boo is Mandy Sutcliffe who was inspired by French children whilst she was staying in Paris. She found inspiration in the children playing in the many Parisian parks and would spend many hours drawing them. Et voilà the Belle & Boo range is beautiful, charming and delightful!

With Halloween just a week away I’ve found a few goodies if you’re looking for some quick, easy and spooky Halloween ideas to enjoy making with your children.

Here are some of the best free Halloween printables. Use them as spooky pictures to hang up or make Halloween cards with them. The collection has been compiled by Design Mom Gabrielle Blair and features this wonderful image by A Fanciful Twist. Or how about printing and making these black and orange Halloween Party Owl Invitations.

John Lewis have a great selection of children’s Halloween costumes and toys. For younger children I love the Face Paint Sticks. Suitable for children 3 years plus. Create your own Halloween faces!

For older children my favourite is this Mask Making Kit which makes at least 5 masks. Suitable for ages 7 years plus.
