24 EXACLAIR ExaClair Limited, the UK distributor for the Avenue Mandarine brand, has announced a new Masks to Sew Kit with wild animal designs. This new creative box contains all the material needed to create three fun wild animal masks – elephant, tiger and giraffe. The pre-cut felt shapes together with the punched sewing lines make it easier for younger children to learn how to sew. The plastic needle prevents little fingers being injured and the large eye makes it simpler for youngsters to thread it. The small shapes are made from self-adhesive felt to make it easier for youngsters to decorate their masks. The other kits within the Masks to Sew collection enable children to make their own rabbit, owl and cat masks or fox, cat and reindeer masks. Lawrence Savage, Marketing Manager at ExaClair, says these Masks to Sew Kits are a fun way to introduce children to sewing and at the same time develop their hand to eye coordination: “Youngsters will love creating their own brightly coloured masks and enjoy hours of fun transforming themselves into their chosen animal for added play value.” T: +44 (0)1553 696 600 E: enquiries@exaclair.co.uk www.exaclairlimited.com PINTAIL CANDLES Two new fabulous fragrances become part of the Pintail Candles family this autumn. Cottonwood & Cedar was inspired by thoughts of the great outdoors, with a starry night overhead and sharing the warmth of a campfire against the chill of the early evening. This gorgeous, generous fragrance is an embrace of gentle spicy notes floating over soft woody whispers. Aromatic cinnamon leaf, and clove bud arouse a heart of warm, balsamic cottonwood and mellow, earthy cedar. Before drifting far away on light wisps of smoky patchouli.

From the contemporary Sperrin collection to the attentiongrabbing and witty Top Dog, the new range is sure to tempt everyone into the great outdoors as dads everywhere vie for the title of grill king this Father’s Day. Paying homage to the undulating hills and valleys of Northern Ireland’s Sperrin mountains, the Sperrin collection reflects the unspoilt beauty of this rugged landscape. Its unrefined aesthetic symbolises the untouched scenery of the mountain range. Subtle colour and abstract mark-making give the collection its natural look and feel, and its mossy green tones create an understated camouflage with the minimalist in mind. In contrast to this, Top Dog, a fun departure from the landscape-inspired Sperrin collection, is designed to be the perfect accompaniment for the relaxed atmosphere of the summer’s day barbeque. With its charming Dachshund – more commonly known as the ‘Sausage Dog’ – the collection offers a more comical take on the traditional Father’s Day barbeque ranges, especially for those fond of the trademark dad joke. Tonal greys emphasise its charming character with yellow and red to elevate the novelty ‘Top Dog’ message. Ulster Weavers’ Business Development Director Joanne Bradley said: “Whether it’s a kids’ present or a more considered gift for dad, our new barbeque range offers something for everyone this Father’s Day. Achieve a fresh, outdoor feel with our Sperrin collection or a more casual feel with Top Dog. “Through our products we aim to fulfil our purpose to enrich homes and lives everywhere. As the home hubbing trend continues with consumers welcoming friends and family members into their homes, we hope these new collections will entice families to come together in the great outdoors to create lasting memories.” www.ulsterweavers.com CHEEKY CHOMPERS Cheeky Chompers is thrilled to unveil its next solution for babies (and parents) embarking upon the teething journey.
