Hello Pretty is Winding Down

After more than ten fulfilling, magical years beginning in the good old days of 2012, Hello Pretty is retiring and heading off to the beach with a drink with a tiny umbrella.

Unisex gifts for kids & babies ?

Your baby's bedding should be as good as, or better than, your own, and we have the perfect option: the charcoal melange cot duvet set, made by Lola&Peach. Luxurious, soft, jersey knit. And at only R510 this one's a real winner if you're stuck for a gift. Also available in pink.

Not everyone wants to go the classic blue-for-boys, pink-for-girls route for their little ones. Or maybe you're shopping for a gift for a friend who's keeping their baby's gender a surprise. On Hello Pretty you'll find a boat-load of quality, unique options suitable for any baby or child,  so prepare yourself for an exciting browse-athon!
 

Our featured designer for today is Ruby Stitches Baby & Kids Decor. They have an adorable range of wall hangings for kids. We've featured their more neutral ones here, but they have in a whole variety of colours and styles (and animals!). One of our favourites is their rainbow wall hanging, which you get personalised with a child's name.

Your Kid’s Room With Hello Pretty

I like the idea of neutral or pastel colours for decorating a kid’s room. I have chosen some beautiful and adorable products from Hello Pretty that will make a great addition to your kid’s bedroom. The products are all neutral, so any of these can be used in a boy or a girl’s room.

This colourful hot air balloon garland from the younghearts store is a good choice to bring some colour and fun into your kid’s room. I love the pastel colours.

Then there are the crochet floor cushions from PommePomme. The neutral colour is great for a girl or boy’s room. Perfect for bedtime stories.

How cute is the animals and tree wall art from the Custom Vinyl Art store? I love the African theme and the pretty colours.

The large cloud cushion from Sprouts Kids Co is ideal for your little one to snuggle into at night. They will be off to dreamland with their cloud cushion in no time.

I think the large wooden elephant carving from Hands Design Collective is so cute to put in a kid’s room as a décor piece. When they are older they could even play with it as a toy.
