If you are anything like us (and you live in the UK), you will know that finding anything a little more unusual and stylish for children's parties can be somewhat of a challenge.
So you can imagine our excitement when we discovered this beautiful, fairy-tale-inspired collection by Belle and Boo, from design-led party specialists Talking Tables.
Belle and Boo is a very special British lifestyle brand loved by adults and children alike, known for original, nostalgic 'story book' illustrations of children. The creator, Mandy Sutcliffe was inspired by the beautiful French children she saw playing in the parks during her university studies in Paris.
With a range comprising everything from invitations and thank you cards; to plates, cups and napkins; to cupcake accessories and cake decorations; to banners, balloons and party games, the beautiful illustrations across the collection tell the story of the adventures of Belle, a little bob-haired girl - and her adorable bunny friend Boo.
We absolutely love the donkey and treat cart (pictured above), but the co-ordinating tableware and accessories are every bit as stylish:
Prices for the items featured are as follows:
Donkey and treat cart: £10.00
Paper plates (set/8): £3.50
Paper cups (set/8): £3.00
Paper napkins (set/20): £3.00
Cupcake wraps (set/24): £4.50
Cake toppers (set/16 with large, birthday cake wrap): £6.50
Party bags (set/8, with name stickers): £4.00
So if you like what you are seeing, visit Talking Tables for the rest of the range (and many more magical party collections for little ones and grown-ups alike) and - we promise - never ever feel not inspired again!
