DIY kids crafts and free printables inspired by our Autumn Winter 2023 collection

Just when we think we have hit the pinnacle of prettiness for our prints, we bring out another season! This AW23 is going to be hard to top! One of our favourite things to do with the launch of a new season is come up with some crafts and printables inspired by the new prints. These will certainly help pass the time during the upcoming school holidays! Let's get our craft on!

Chelsea art print

Flowers so pretty, they deserve a permanent spot on a wall! Print onto cardstock paper and use as a gift card or frame and hang. Download the print here

Stripe strip paper animals

Kids will love this simple but effective craft! Simply download and print the patterned sheets and anima templates and grab a pair of scissors and a glue stick!

1. Cut the patterned paper into strips
2. Choose an animal template and turn it over so the white side is showing
3. Glue all over the back of the animal where its silhouette will be
4. Stick the strips of paper onto the back butting them up close together. Complete until all of the animal is covered
5. Turn over and use the black sillhouette to cut out the animal. Turn over and your strip paper will now be in the same shape!

Bloom iron-on flowers

Those sweet flowers they love to pick and pop in their pockets? Well, let's give them a permanent spot in their pockets! These pretty posies can be printed onto iron-on T-shirt paper and then ironed onto fabric - jeans pockets, onesies fronts, T-shirts, library bags etc. We grabbed our iron-on paper from Kmart but Officeworks also has them. Follow the instructions on your printable paper.

Noah paper-chain countdown

This is an easy and effective way of stopping the nagging from the kids who pipe up "how many sleeps until...." each time something exciting is coming up! Maybe it's Easter, or when their holiday begins, or Christmas time - make a paper chain countdown! Count up the days (or sleeps!) before The Big Thing and make that many number of links in the chain. Cut the patterned paper into strips of about two centimetres wide and link them together. Then hang it up and let the kids cut off one link each day and they can see it getting closer and closer as the chain shrinks!

Flores printable stickers

Some of our hat characters are just so cute, we had to do something cool with them! So we grouped them together in various sizes and created a sheet of printables! We printed them onto sticker paper and the kids spent a crazy amount of time decorating their books, mirrors, computer cases, shelves and themselves! We also love the idea of them printed onto tattoo paper and used as temporary tattoos - how cute would they be as party favours!

Peony colouring-in Easter card

Our Peony print is so detailed and delicate we thought it might make a great colouring in! Even better: an EASTER CARD Colouring in! Perfect as a topper for those last-minute Easter gifts.

Penguin finger puppets

Cute little fingers poking through cute little waddlers! These penguin finger puppets should keep the little ones amused for a little while! Download, cut out and play! You could cut some ice bergs out of the leftover cardstock! Print at about 50% for the best size.
