Citronille Dressing Up Patterns

October 18, 2010 by · 2 Comments 

With Halloween looming it feels like I can’t walk five paces without being confronted by nylon creations which make my stomach turn. We love dressing up here at Bambino Goodies but like everything else, we want it to be stylish. When I spotted these dressing up patterns I was instantly transported back to the timeless [...]

Ever since we went to Giffords Circus my children have been practicing their feats of daring and circus skills.

   There’s not much in the way of kids dressing up gear that excites me, mainly because they tend to be a bit lairy in colour or TV character led, so I was quite pleased to see some stylish buys at Nubie, hotspot of modern kids gear.

As soon as I saw this tutorial from The Purl Bee I knew I had to make it. The tutorial and pattern won’t have you pulling your hair out and I was able to stitch mine up in an hour or so. The costume itself is wonderfully minimal just a hat and paws mittens which are easy [...]

Dressing up…NASA space suit

October 19, 2009 by · Leave a Comment 

All this talk of Halloween has me thinking about playing dress up although I don’t think that kids become conscious of Halloween until they’re at school, hence why we don’t go nuts for it here at BG as we’re all about the under 4′s.

Charlie Crow’s Costumes for Kids

My kids dread when the teachers say ¨Ask your mummy to make an outfit¨ and now we can cheat and still have our kids looking good in their school plays…. The company try and help the environment in differing ways if when your child has grown out of its costume you can send it back to them and they will distribute it to a charity and will send you a 10% discount voucher off a future order.
