Playon Crayon

I’ve been on the lookout for some innovative, non toxic crayons that are perfect for little hands and I’m loving these stackable, vibrant sets of twelve Playon Crayons which I first saw a few months back when I was at Bubble. £9.95 Hop! Toy Shop and an excellent stocking filler.

New Prints from Oliver Jeffers

  Oliver Jeffers is one of our favourite artists and children’s book authors. If, like me, you are in love with his illustrations then you can buy limited edition prints from his shop. Since I first wrote about his prints nearly three years ago he has added ten further prints from Lost and Found, The [...]

First Look: LulaBunny clocks by Lulabird

For months we’ve been pestering Louise, the creator of retro inspired design brand Lulabird, because we’ve been eager to find out what she’d follow up her smash hit launch collection of clocks and wall art featuring owls, whales, blooms and ‘MooseBoy’ with. Finally it’s time to show off her LulaBunny clocks in bang on trend [...]

Go Confidently prints

Hot on the heels of Kat’s fabulous Let’s Have Fun Today print find, I had to share these little gems from Australian illustrators Mara and Nicholas Girling, aka Printspace. We love a mantra here at BG and this quotation from Henry Thoreau is certainly something to aspire to no matter what age you are. Printspace’s [...]

Lion and Elephant Prints from Jane Foster

Two new limited edition screen prints from Jane Foster have just been released. A lion and an elephant both in Jane’s distinctive style are available in a limited run of 200 each. Each print is A3 size, hand printed and signed by the artist. I’m digging the lion especially after someone commented on her blog [...]

Sarah Jane Studios

There is nothing like seeing a piece of art in context to make you want it. I am loving Take Me For a Walk from Sarah Jane Studios after seeing this nursery from Aubrey and Lindsay on her blog. I’ve been a fan of Sarah Jane’s for a long time now and her strap line: [...]

Personalisied Birthday Posters from Molly Meg

I was having a quick look at the current stock of vintage chairs at Molly-Meg ahead of this weekend’s Kids.Modern when I spotted these cute vintage type face posters. Each one is hand printed by Stephen Kenny from his collection of antique letterpress fonts. The mix of fonts depends on the length of your child’s [...]

Letter Prints by Paul Thurlby

Delightfully retro and sublimely coloured the alphabet prints of Paul Thurlby are divine. Each letter is a limited edition print and costs £27 although you can currently buy two and get the third free.

Posters for Little People from Little Studio

I have been drooling over the home and style of Swedish blogger Mamamekko for yonks and was very excited when she announced she was opening a shop to sell her funky prints. Little Studio is open for business and I am loving the prints. I have long admired the Little Cloud print (above centre) which is [...]

Owl & Cat Designs

I am really smitten with these simple prints by artist Esther Hall. They are prints from an original lino cut illustration. Each image is thoughtfully coloured and retains the charm of a lino cut. They are perfect for the stylish nursery as they are adorable without being cutesy. £22.50 each from Owl & Cat Designs at [...]

My First Alphabet Poster by Marcus Walters

It has to be acknowledged that there are some supremely talented illustation artists working in the UK today. I just adore the work of Marcus Walters who has a small selection of gorgeous works in his shop. You may have already seen his work on the Pizza Express kids’ menu, in Anorak or at Howies. Regular [...]

Peagreen Shop

I am a borderline stalker of uber cool design consultancy Peagreen. Who can blame me when their clients include some of our favourite shops: Paperchase, Habitat, Urban Outfitters, Topshop and even Ikea. I recently attended their first ever gallery show and was absolutely wowed by the limited edition prints and one off art pieces created [...]

Under Her Wing from Kids Haus

What I read from other bloggers astounds, inspires and amazes me. On more than one occasion it has floored me. Whilst working my way through a week’s worth of posts following a holiday I stopped skimming and started reading. Michelle at Kids Haus, a talented illustrator and inspirational blogger, recently lost an old friend. A [...]
