Sleepykins //Feeling Blue

By Annelie Klein, Contributor Leave a Comment

Are you wanting a change from monochrome or earthy boho tones? Go for blue this summer and mix it with a hint of mint to refresh the style or make it stronger with black and white. Here is a little inspiration to help you feel the power of electric blue!

Sleepykins // Avie’s dreamy room.

By Mel Spurling, Contributor 2 Comments

Now here’s a little girl’s room which captivated me at first glance.  Avie’s room.  The beautiful daughter of the creative and inspirational mumma, Bek Halliday.

Bek has always had a passion for interior styling.  “Children’s spaces are definitely the most fun to decorate! You can truly be imaginative and create something magical. I think we all want our kids to grow up surrounded by wonder and a little magic”.

Avie’s room is ever evolving (due to her mumma’s obsession with decorating!).  Bek’s  is always drawn to the same soft pastel tones.   She wanted to create a pretty space which wasn’t overly ‘girly’. Bek loves Scandinavian inspired kids rooms and when designing little Avie’s room, she had a fair idea  of what she wanted and also searched the internet and Instagram for inspirational ideas.

Bek’s favourite item in Avie’s room is her painted wall feature with all the bits and bobs on it.   Bek was so scared to steer away from the safe white walls, although, the risk definitely paid off.

Avie’s favourite item in her room is her bed!  She tends to jump on it… A LOT!  “Avie is only four, so I don’t think she really minds what I do with it [her room] for now.  Thankfully!

When shopping for her room, there were so many amazing stores that Bek found through Instagram. “This is definitely where I found my favourite pieces for her space.  I like to splurge on pieces that I just can’t live without, and source similar pieces to items that were out of my price range.  For example, I wanted a bed that I saw at Domayne, although, Avie’s bed is actually from Fantastic Furniture for a quarter of the price.”

Bek also shops on Etsy and scouts local markets and mainstream shops such as Country Road, Cotton On Kids and Typo for fun and quirky pieces; Ikea is a go to  place for shelving and frames.

“Sometimes if I can’t find just the right thing, I make it myself. This is how I started my art business. I love to create, I always have. Painting is a strong passion that I have wanted to fulfil for so long.  I love the satisfaction of looking at one of my pieces and saying ‘hey, you know what, that’s actually pretty good!’   Ten years ago I wouldn’t of had the confidence to pursue my dream. I guess after having my two babes, the time is just right now”.

Sleepykins // Let There Be Light

By Donna Tweedale, Former Contributor Leave a Comment

Autumn is making its presence known here with the colder mornings and dark afternoons.

I’ve been looking at some new lighting for the children’s bedrooms to make their space feel warm and cosy in time for winter.

There are some fantastic lighting options out there that use real imagination and would make an impacting focal point of any playroom or child’s bedroom.

I just had to share my favorites… those Memory Balloons, blow my mind!

Copyright © 2023 · Babiekins Magazine | A Trendsetting Kids' Fashion Magazine and Online Community for Parents and Children Alike · Since the Southern California birth of Babiekins in 2010, the magazine has grown from into an internationally-recognized print publication with a global circulation and now a thriving online community. We are more than a kids’ fashion magazine. We search everywhere for inspiration, and go beyond trends to bring you fashion, style, decor, design, books, DIY, parties, and playthings. Our readers look to us to keep up with the best and most up-to-date concepts in the children’s market worldwide. We have an eye for quirk. We’re high-fashion, but we value whimsy over tradition. Playful childhood is more important to us than making kids into copycat adults. We believe life is beautiful, life is valuable, and life changes when you see it through the eyes of a child. We seek to transcend skin color, language and zip codes and bring out the real, wild, magical creativity inherent in every child. And behind Babiekins is an optimistic team of mothers-turned-editors, working from home, often with our own little babiekins climbing on, under and around the desks. We want to encourage you, and challenge you to see something different — something special — in yourself and in this world we all share. Welcome to Babiekins!
