If you're not familiar with this magazine yet, then it's about time you will. Babiekins is the most beautiful and stylist baby & kids fashion, decor and everything important about the little one's magazine that usually saved to the couture fashion magazines...Just like bouji & nouna like!
As they quote the legendary Coco Chanle "Fashion is not something that exists in dresses only. Fashion is in the sky, in the street, fashion has to do with ideas, the way we live, what is happening." -
Thank you Prescilia & Babiekins Magazine for finding bouji & nouna stylish!
The hot summer is just around the corner, and bouji & nouna feels that it's just the time to start with their fab smock dresses that are so bright, beautiful and most important super comfy for the little princesses!
It was Albert Einstein who said: ..."If you want your children to be intelligent, read them fairy tales. If you want them to be more intelligent, read them more fairy tales..."
bouji & nouna's new vintage inspired dolls are great for that matter. Made from 100% cotton and can be a great start or addition to any fairy tales fan!
We know it, When they are so tiny you just Can't help yourself from buying more and more cute items for them... but what to do with it after they've grown? Finding yourself a clear room and just keep them there in case their will be another one on the further?
From that need, bouji & nouna created their new Eco friendly Floor Cushion/Pouf
A sweet floor pouf Made with Home Decor Weight Cotton Canvas.
Adding that perfect touch of modern elegance to any room! ...
Why Eco friendly?
For some reasons, first of all it shipped unfilled for ease of postage and handling. Secondly, We recommend filling with your unneeded baby clothing, old sheets, stuffed toys, fabric leftovers, etc. every thing goes as long as it soft and cleans some room for you...
50's ads, That's our new "Modern Life" collection inspiration... Theirs nothing more naive and sweet than those ads that reflect past world war 2 need for a better, beautiful world. We used those elements on our collection, feeling need to make a better world for our babies and children in those Modern life, other than the ones we see around us. On this matter, We would like to send our Love to all children all over the world. bouji and nouna have lately donated to UNICEF to help the Haiti children, and would keep help children elsewhere.
Eli, The sweet shy elephant, was, without a doubt bouji & nouna best seller on this Christmas shopping season… We sold all the 4 dolls they had, and run out of the vintage cotton fabric… bouji was a bit upset because Eli was his favorite elephant doll so he did his best to try to find some more from the vintage cotton material he was made of... we searched the internet but couldn't find the exact same fabric… but then our fabric collection treasure came to our rescue! We found one yard of fabric similar in colors of turquoise and cream…. We knew than that Eli is about to make a comeback! Today it finely happened, Eli was done in his new fabric and bouji was the happiest kid on earth!
On the first hours they just enjoyed each other company, hugging and kissing…
Than Eli did bouji some back and head massage.
After nouna woke up from her nap bouji and Eli played together some great original music written by bouji…
Just before bad-time, while hugging Eli in bad, bouji whispering to Eli ears –" I missed you so much Eli! You're my best friend! "
Don't you wish your child would have such a great friend? Go now to bouji & nouna shop and get them one of our children's best friends!
bouji & nouna have been very busy lately...
except for making a lot of christmas orders, they have thought about creating new products and some new designs... nouna said that she's no longer a baby, she had her second birthday, that mean that she's no longer interested in baby stuff however she's most interested in clothes and music, just like any girl her age... bouji said he don't really care, as long as we make some new elephants and owls, also, he would like to see more boys products and prints on the b&n products 'cause it's unfair that most of their latest relies were for girls, and girls are yak... except for his girlfriend of course... nouna was really upset and ask that they start with the nouma dolls, 'cause she can really use some new sleeping companion, and nouna know to be really convincing when she want to...and after three days of non stop talking about how she would love to have a new doll bouji surrendered and they started to sketch the new nouma doll.... So now you can see the new nouma doll design, she's larger than her previous, wearing a cool dress and funky legers... nouma was so happy when she saw them! She was watching her favorite TV show when the first one was done and she ran from across the room screaming "Buba! Buba shely! "Which means in Hebrew "doll my doll?"and just couldn't let her go... she have danced with her 'till she dropped, they had a tea party together, and even went with her to sleep... this are Marry-Ann and Zoe, two out of 6 different designs for the new nouma doll.
Mary-Ann is a true positive vibrated girl, full of love and care. She loves to dance and listen to music. Her faces are hand embroidered and she's got blonde felt hair and felt pig tails with red satin ribbon ties...
Zoe is a true redhead, full of energy, very smart and a bit nutty from time to time but look what a big heart she's got!
Even bouji was happy about those dolls, because for one day nouna was busy doing something other than annoying him...

As a little child there was one magic place at our home...
My mom had a closet that was off limit for me and He contains for me the most preaches treasures ever.
It was an old closet, full of her sewing materials - tones of fabrics and fabrics leftovers, buttons, strings, ribbons and so much more...
She also kept there her unfinished projects, fabric pieces with embroidery on them, dresses and tops parts etc.
Even though it was off limit, or maybe because of it, it was my favorite place at home. I've spend hours digging in the heaps; Playing, searching...pretending to have the most beautiful dresses. touching and feeling the different textures..
As I got older, around 12 yrs, I often took some of the left overs, sewing my self dresses I've seen on TV or magazines - all alone, without any guidance..
When I needed some spending money, I used them to create dolls witch I sold later on randoms fairs.
This secret closet was the world for me, a center of creation and imagination. I've learned that with fabric leftovers dream really can come true and hopes can become realized.
Now days, I have my own secret closet, and I keep on make dreams come true, mine and other moms elsewhere, from the treasures in it.
It coming soon... After lots of nights without sleeping, hours of planning and sewing ... my new collection is almost done... I've really tried to get wild with this collection and realise my design sensibility to the extreme. meaning, to be totally free from every other existing babies bedding and to create something completely new. I used my knowledge in art and craft to create a collection based on colors and shapes - two of the most important elements in any newborns life- to provide an alternative, retro, modern, urban selection of baby's mix 'n match bedding. the 2009 collection will be influenced by the retro feeling all over and will be in a very happy, with tones of bright colors. I realise that this time my collection wont be everyone's "cup of tea" as my previous collection. but I'm sure and proud of it just as much (if not more). In the collection I used some true original vintage fabrics along with new retro inspired fabrics which I suit to the most darling Japanese fabrics with the most adorable print witch are so naive, sweet and full of that retro feel that I just adore Hope you'll love it too!
The 2009 summer/ Autumn collection will include crib bumpers, pillows, crib sheets and clothing and should be ready for sell around June 15. than I'll start to release items to my etsy shop. Don't miss it! May 15 ---bouji & nouna new collection... 'till than, all of the existing stock is on 50% of on the second item!!!!!
