And Pretty Maids all in a Row...

 

 

 

With silver bells and cockle shells

And pretty maids all in a row...

Wishing you all a wonderful, long Bank Holiday weekend!

 A few flowers for Spring.

Thanks for the inspiration:

Happy Browsing!

 

Etsy FInds: Walk Tall

Not the best of photos, I have to say.

But can you imagine these three 60's classroom health posters framed and lined up on a wall in a kids' room?

Pretty cool, non ?

I like the "Deep Breather" one myself, must be my British sense of humour.

Cowboys & Indians

Indoors & Outdoors

A classic, good old-fashioned game.

Un coup de foudre for Penny Leaver Green's handmade playmat and this wonderful new wigwam from Wendi Toys*.

Love!

A short while ago I received my first shop order from Johannesburg, accompanied by a polite request for more South African kids' designs on the Kickcan & Conkers blog.

I featured I Love Bokkie's wall hangers last year, if you remember, but thought it would be a good idea to share some of their other products with you today. 

The husband and wife team also sell wholesale if you're looking for something a little bit different for your store.

Love that rocker and chair!

I presented a few weeks ago?

 

 Posters: Sirkkalehdet and Sipulikukat

Well, I'm delighted to announce that the Finnish design duo have put together a very generous giveaway package for Kickcan & Conkers readers, made up of two posters, two tea towels and ten postcards!

Four of the following ten postcards: Hella, Pönttöuuni, Sirkkalehdet, Taimet, Siemenet, Helmililja ja Krookus, Sipulikukat, Uutta kotia, Naapurusto and Yöpuu

I thought it would be nice if we split the giveaway into three prizes, two tea towels, two posters and ten postcards, so, if you'd like a chance of winning one of these three sets please leave a comment below.

The usual rules apply, anyone who shares the news via Facebook, Twitter etc will get a second chance (please let me know). Make sure you leave a valid email address so that I can contact you if you win!

This giveaway is open to international readers and ends in one week's time on Wednesday 9th May, 6pm CET.

Good Luck!

Bargain Basement

Continuing my quest for beautiful, original handmade finds that don't cost the earth, I stumbled upon Kailey Lang's shop BumbleBoo Handmades offering a selection of badges, stickers, magnets, magnets, postcards and original prints, all reasonably priced.

Dinosaurs have never looked so good, and I'm sure you'll agree her pretty colour palette and illustrations are worth every penny spent.
