Ruby Tues • 1 December 2022

We have a wonderful collection of accessories for kids. So if you’re looking for Christmas gifts this year, here’s what we have in store for you! 

With the holiday season just around the corner, everyone’s looking for fun fashion accessories, kids’ stuff and toys to buy their loved ones. Popular stores are all flooded with people looking for a good deal, which makes it harder to buy the perfect present for your child.

But don’t worry! We’re here to help you. Here at
Surprises & Smiles, we have a wonderful collection of accessories for kids. So if you’re worried about falling short this Christmas, just visit our online store for a happy surprise! 


We’ve put together this blog to tell you a little more about the kids’ stuff we make or supply and how they make for the perfect gifts this season. Let’s dive right in! 


1. Hair Accessories 

Here at Surprises & Smiles, we’re all about accessorising. And hair accessories are at the top of our essential items list! Hair accessories can really add to an outfit and make it pop. We have all sorts of hair accessories and sets to choose from, giving you everyday options and presents for special occasions like parties and family get-togethers. Our accessories also suit pretty much all hair types and lengths, since we have hair bands, hair clips, scrunchies and other essentials. You can see them all here!


2. Masquerade Masks 

Our Filigree Masquerade masks make the perfect gift for people who love playing dress up with a fantasy twist! They’re not just for kids, of course, because they help keep the inner child alive in adults as well. We have different colour options to suit every mood, making them ideal if you want to change things up a bit. These masks make the perfect addition to fancy dress styles, and are also a quick and convenient add-on for last minute costumes. With these masquerade masks, you and your kid can bring the party with you everywhere you go! 

3. Browbands

Just like our masquerade masks, our browbands also add a nice flair of chic style to make a fashion statement. Embellished with lovely beads, they can also be used in an everyday setting to add a little oomph to your outfits. Browbands can really make your child feel like the magical princess (or prince!) they truly are! 


4. Stationary 

Though it’s holiday season, it’s still a great idea to remind your kids that learning can be fun. And what better way to do it than with creative and colourful stationary? We have a collection of adorable stationary that will definitely spark your child’s interest in learning, as well as up their creativity a notch. Our stationary sets aren’t just lovely to look at however, as they’re also a really practical gift that can be put to use on an everyday basis. That’ll really bring value to your gift this season! 


5. Bookmarks 

Children have wild imaginations, and that’s something adults can really try to rekindle in their lives. The best way to really encourage your child to delve into the depths of their imagination is through books. Of course, a lot of kids seem to be glued to the telly these days. But that’s all the more reason to encourage them to read. And a great way to do so is through creative bookmarks that can pique your child’s interest when it comes to the world of literature. Whether your child is already an avid reader, or needs a little push in the right direction, our bookmarks can work wonders for their little creative minds. We have bookmarks that also double up as rulers, making them super fun and also practical to use. We also have a collection of squashed bug bookmarks, for every little bookworm out there.

6. Temporary Tattoos

Who said tattoos have to be a big, permanent decision? With our temporary tattoos, your child can feel like a cool kid, and also change up their look every now and then. Not to mention, you can also use our temporary tattoos in many other ways. We talk all about it in this blog of ours. Give it a read and be surprised! Our collection of temporary tattoos is wide, and we also have a metallic collection that seems to be extra popular with the kids these days. 


7. Handbags & Purses

Handbags are a must-have, not just because they look good. They’re also practical. We have a collection of handbags to suit every taste. Whether you’re looking for a tropical trip, or just colourful to keep your essential in, we’ve got you covered! Another great gift idea is a purse. A purse is a lovely accessory to have, while it also teaches your child the importance and value of money. By giving your kid a cute purse to store their pocket money in, they’re more likely to be conscientious with their little finances. And, hey! They’ll also have something fancy and new to show off to their friends in school. 


8. Shell Accessories 

Although Christmas is just around the corner and it’s cold outside… you can still remind your kid about warm, sunny days at the beach! Our shell accessories are a great way to do just that. We have adjustable puka shell necklaces that work for children of all ages, as well as shell clips, tropical handbags, and more! So, if you want to give your kid a sunny surprise and put a smile on their face, puka shells are the perfect gift! 


9. DIY Craft Supplies 

There’s nothing like encouraging your child to get creative. Keeping that creative spark alive is extremely important, and you can do so with DIY craft supplies like embellishments and beads. This will give your child the opportunity to be their own fun fashion designer. Who knows? Your kid may just be the next Vivienne Westwood or Alexander McQueen! The only way you can find out is to let your kid get hands-on with fun fashion crafts. Not to mention, it’s a great way to take interest in your child’s passion and bond with them as well. So, if you’re ready for a fun, DIY holiday season, check out our embellishments here


10. Woolen Goodies 

Nothing says Christmas like wooly warmth! I’m sure we all share the same fond memories of cozying up to the fireplace, wearing little knit hats and sweaters. We happen to have a cute collection of wolly items that you can buy separately or as a set for your favourite teddy. Our teddy wool hats and scarves not only look amazing, but they’re exactly the warmth you want to extend this holiday season.


Ruby’s Final Thoughts

I love all of our products at Surprises & Smiles. Remember it is a shop selling hair accessories, stationary and all the lovely sparkly things I want to buy. I opened this little online shop so I can spread the joy of finding the best hairband ‘ever!’ at a price which won’t break everyone’s piggy bank. This is all about Smiles of course!
