DIY Sewing Tutorial Belle Epoque Whimsy Bias Tape Grandma Bag Tote

2008-03-07T08:11:00.000-08:00

I recently made this little tote for my toddler using the super easy tutorial posted by Nancy of Belle Epoque. I used fabric and bias tape I had on hand, therefore it's not a perfect match. I don't think Makenna noticed. ;) I made the kanzashi flower embellishment based on this tutorial (video tutorial), and added a fabric covered button. It did take me a few tries to sew the petals together properly, but I'm pretty happy with the end result. And, Makenna loves it. I think I'll have to make one for myself...

Her business is entering it's third year of business and is expanding it's nursery collection to offer some of the most luxurious upscale designers, including Bratt Decor, Bananafish, Amenity, Bebe Chic, Kootie Bug Designs, Doodlefish and more.

I was interested to learn about their collection of children and maternity clothing from UK designer Bamboo Baby. Their clothing is created from the bamboo plant:

"Bamboo clothing is becoming a 'must have' item because of it's remarkable natural characteristics:

it's as soft as cashmere
naturally wicks moisture
naturally antibacterial
highly breathable
stays cooler in heat
warmer in the cold
the most environmentally friendly raw material on earth, even when compared with organic cotton.

These qualities combine to offer a new level of luxury and comfort, in a sustainable and ethical way. Bamboo is being called ‘The New Cotton' and people are talking about ‘A Textile Revolution'."

Review Goober Baby Stylish Tote Bag, Diaper and Wipes Case, and Changing Mat

2008-02-16T07:57:00.000-08:00

As moms, ours lives are busy and hectic enough, we don't need the hassle of searching for items in our "overstuffed" bags. When I pack for a day out with our little one, you'd think I was taking a two week vacation, packed with "what if" items. Goober Baby offers functional and stylish solutions to keep our everyday essentials organized.

I received the Candy Coated tote bag from Goober Baby for review and love it. I have to hand it to the ladies at Goober Baby, they have chosen some fabulous high quality fabrics for their collections. The Candy Coated tote bag features a lovely floral print on the outside and a coordinating striped waterproof interior, which is visible through the clear vinyl front of the bag. The generously sized 8"x10" bag offers quick and easy access with the Velcro flap closure.

Review Sigg Reusable Stylish Eco Friendly Sports Swiss Aluminum Water Bottles

2008-02-09T09:37:00.000-08:00

Sigg premium aluminum water bottles, known as the “World’s Best Water Bottle”, are "beautifully designed, portable works of art that are a perfect blend of function and fashion." Each bottle, designed and manufactured in Switzerland, is created from a single piece of aluminum, resulting in perfectly seamless construction. Sigg keeps up with the trends by featuring artwork from over 100 up & coming artists from around the world, offering us thousands of designs to choose from every year.

Our family decided a long time ago to stop buying bottled water. Which left us with trying to find reusable water bottles that kept our beverages cold and didn't leave our drinks tasting like plastic. I had heard of Sigg bottles, but never knew what I was missing until I received one of these awesome bottles for review. My kids fell in love with the design we received, the Hakunamatata, a vibrant colored bottle featuring fun animal characters. We fought over the catalog, checking out the collection of over 100 designs. Their collections include designs for any style and personality, including the Skull Vision, Nature's Bouquet, and the Wide World of Sports.

Features::

Healthy and Safe:: Waterbased, non-toxic taste neutral interior lining is 100% effective against leaching and combats residue build-up.

New hot/cold bottles keep hot beverages hot for 2 hours and cool beverages cool for 4 hours.
Ultra lightweight aluminum water bottles are available in a wide array of colors and designs.
All bottle caps are interchangeable.

With all of the health concerns associated with plastics, paint, and aluminum, Sigg answers all your questions and concerns, so you can see why so many people choose Sigg.

SIGG is celebrating its 100th year and has partnered with stopglobalwarming.org to launch Sigg100.com, a site that explores the 100 most significant eco-moments of the past century.

My girls each made one for their friends for Valentine's Day featuring their favorite band. They were a HUGE hit with all of their friends. Of course my girls wanted one of their own to hang from the ceiling in their room to gaze endlessly at. I decided to get wise and purchase a circle cutter, about $15 at Michael's. I highly suggest purchasing one if you plan on making more than a couple. Not only does it save tons of time, but it also creates perfectly cut circles.

One Lil Cupcake Adorable Handcrafted Felt Hair Clips

2008-01-19T13:45:00.001-08:00

I adore little girls clips, especially handcrafted clips that feature adorable animals and pretty little flowers. We certainly have a wonderful assortment of bows and crystal clips. However, I love the look of wool felt clips shaped into little flowers, frogs, and my favorite, lil' cupcakes.

We received the brown and pink flower clip for review from One Lil' Cupcake and Makenna wore it everyday for a week. She loves it. She is 3 years old and has a lot of hair, so I was actually surprised that such a small snap clip stayed in place. The felt helps keep the hair in place and is especially helpful for babies with fine hair. A small 1 1/2" snap clip is sandwiched between two flower shaped felt flowers. A little flower button is securely attached to the middle and carefully hand-stitched around the flower in a contrasting pink thread. This size clip is best suited for babies and toddlers, however big girl sizes up to 6 years of age are available upon request.

I love the gift set. For $64 you will receive twelve clips, one for each month of the year. Each seasonal clip is handmade to coordinate with each of her seasonal outfits. Gift sets arrive on a colorful designed calendar, perfect for giftgiving.

Order 4 or more hair clips and receive free shipping! (USA only)

I was actually in the market for a new bag with plenty of space for toddler necessities, including diapers, wipes, change of clothes, toys, sippy cups, to name a few. It definitely met all of my needs.
The outside mesh cup or bottle holders allow easy access and will save me another messy clean up from leaky cups. I separated all of our items into their designated compartments and headed out for some holiday shopping. My absolute favorite feature is the quick-release stroller straps. I happen to own one of those expensive umbrella strollers that have very little storage. The daypack strapped on perfectly to the handles which allowed easy access into all of the pockets. The hidden top zipper pocket conveniently held my phone and keys. I even strapped it on a shopping cart at one store which made it convenient for my toddler to reach her toys.

The Duchess has so many features including:

Smart shape designed to fit a woman's body
Comfortable, padded, ergonomic back panel and shoulder straps
Exterior side mesh pockets for sippy cups or bottles
Two front easy-access pockets
Hidden key/phone pocket up top
Roomy open-plan main compartment
Front zippered compartment for diapers and wipes box
Water-resistant fabric in exclusive prints
Scuff-resistant bottom
Travel / stroller clips
Padded, wipe-able changing mat included

Lexie Barnes offers a wonderful selection of styles in distinctive shapes and stylish patterns for a variety of uses, including the Mariposa yoga bag, the Echo 15 laptop case, and the popular Lady B craft tote.
The Duchess is offered in four distinctive, exclusive fabrics that are paired with coordinating nylon interiors and is offered at a special price, while supplies last.

Tada Baby Personalized Canvas Wall Art

2007-11-09T08:05:00.000-08:00

Tada Baby designs fun and vibrant wall art for children that features a child's photo. When I first saw the designs, I was sure that the image was placed on top of the canvas. However, the image and digital artwork is actually giclee printed onto canvas. The canvas is then stretched over a wooden frame and details are hand-painted onto it with acrylic paint, adding depth and texture to the canvas. "The giclee printing process is an extremely high quality ink-jet printing process that produces prints that last much longer and have better color accuracy and detail."
Choose from a wonderful selection of designs or have one custom designed to coordinate with your child's decor.

Sarah Jane Studios Children's Illustrated Art on Etsy

2007-11-04T16:20:00.000-08:00

Sarah truly captures the sweet innocence of childhood in her illustrations. Her delightful creations are hand drawn with charcoal, then digitally colored and printed on Hahnemuhle Museum Etching Paper.

"In my images, I try to create a very simple story...but one that can be easily imagined differently by the viewer. I keep my illustrations simple, so that the rest can be imagined. My art is very innocent and naive, just like a child's mind. My intent is to create art that can be placed in play rooms and nurseries that reflects the innocence and simple wonder of childhood. "

Squid Soap by Airborne Teaches and Trains Children to Wash Hands

2007-10-29T10:35:00.000-07:00

The flu already visited our home early this season, luckily it was mild. However, I'm sure it will return in full force, which is why I'm constantly on my kids to wash their hands. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, hand washing is one of the most important things children can do to help stay healthy.
I was lucky enough to receive Squid Soap by Airborne. It's the first hand soap designed to teach and train proper hand-washing technique to children, perfect timing for my three year old.

Here's how it works:

Press the pump to get "inked" by the ink marker with vegetable dye.
Wash for about 20 seconds thoroughly to remove the ink mark.
Leaves the child with clean hands.
Takes the guesswork out of whether or not your child's hands are clean.
Fun and effective.

My three year old of course loves the squishy squid toy that came along with the "ink soap", as she calls it. At this age, getting her to wash her hands is certainly not a problem. I can't keep her away from playing in the water and making a huge mess in the bathroom. However, I do struggle with keeping the soap on her hands long enough to actually clean them. With Squid Soap, she keeps scrubbing until the ink is gone and we know she's cleaning them thoroughly.
Squid Soap is great kids of all ages and adults too, encouraging healthy habits that benefit the entire family.
Available at many leading retail stores throughout the United States.

Retrospective Design Photo Montages, Invitations and Announcements, Photo Books, Photo Restoration

2007-10-20T08:44:00.000-07:00

I can't say how much I love the photo montage I received from Josephine Swanson, designer of Retrospective Designs. When Anja, our eleven year old dog, died last year, I wanted to create a montage of images that included the entire family as a tribute to her. However, I had no idea how to design one.

When I heard about Retrospective Design, I decided to submit a few images to see what Josephine could come up with. I simply emailed a few images and let her know that I was interested a montage in sepia or black and white. She came up with the most amazing montage that really touched my heart. Since we didn't have one image of the entire family together with Anja, I had to provide several various images. Josephine cropped the images and placed them together beautifully and seamlessly. She added little paw prints and left an area for me to add a sentiment to the montage. A proof was emailed to me to look over and make changes as needed. I received a gorgeous 8x10 print that is now framed for the entire family to enjoy.

The entire experience was wonderful. Josephine's expertise made it easy because she was able to capture exactly what I had envisioned to preserve our special memories of our beloved Anja.

Features:

Submit photos digitally or by mail.
Choose from a variety of materials (5x7 to 16x20, canvas, posters, and prints).
Include dates, favorite quotes, and names.
Montages, books, photo restoration and invitations, announcements or holiday cards.
Beautiful and unique gifts for weddings, birthdays, anniversaries, graduation, retirement, and more.

Earthwise Beauty Cosmetics Organic Skincare Products and Baby Skin Care Line

2007-10-20T07:25:00.001-07:00

Earthwise Beauty, an independent homemade skin care line, is the maker of luscious, naturaland organic, environment friendly skin and body care products.

About Earthwise products:

Ingredients and products are not tested on animals, the only non-vegan ingredients are ethically gathered organic honey and beeswax.
No artificial fragrances (and no cleverly named artificial “fragrance oils”), no synthetic colors, synthetic oils or petroleum derivatives.
Noncomedogenic--they won't clog your pores or cause breakouts.
Products are biodegradable, and all their packaging recyclable.
Handmade and hand packaged with care.

I received a wonderful selection of samples to try from Earthwise. I have to say first that I am a first time user of organic body care products. I can't believe what I was missing. I've used so many products throughout the years to help moisturize my skin and prevent blemishes, struggling to find the right balance. The products I use to clean my face leave it dry and rough, and then the moisturizer leaves it feeling oily.
I tried the disinfecting Lemon Balm Face Pads from Earthwise, they smell great and they left my skin feeling clean, smooth, and hydrated. They don't leave my face dry the way other face pads do. I applied the Carrot a Day Nutritious Face and Eye Gel to my entire face afterwards and my skin truly feels amazing. The gel is nourishing and moisturizing and is especially beneficial to damaged and aged skin, preventing wrinkles and diminishing acne scars.

Earthwise recently launched their baby line that is safe and gentle for baby. Pamper your baby with products that are 100% natural and hypoallergenic, including the Safe and Calm baby oil that is made with sweet almond oil and healing German and Roman chamomile. This 100% oil calms fussy and agitated babies while relieving eczema and skin inflammation. We received several items from the baby care line, including baby mango butter soap, baby powder, and the orange baby bath treatment. I love the 100% natural orange baby bath treatment that is soothing and moisturizing, bringing relief from eczema, dryness, irritation, and rashes. The Very Special Baby Powder contains finely ground calendula petals to help soothe eczema and irritations, and zinc oxide for the prevention and healing of diaper rash. It leaves skin feeling silky smooth.

I think what I like the most is that the products I sampled had a subtle scent and none of them had the chemical feel and smell that most skincare products have. They left my skin feeling clean and smooth.

Receive free shipping for any baby products through December 20, 2007 with code bmbaby in redemption code box at checkout.
