Tiny Prints is a very cute shop offers a great selection of party invitations, holiday cards, photo birth announcements, thank you cards and much more!  Creative, personal, custom and VERY fun for your family! 

If you are planning a baby shower or expecting a baby you will definitely appreciate Tiny Prints’ Baby Shower invitations and Birth announcements.  If you’re looking for a great gift for an expecting mom, they even offer gift certificates!  Personally, I have always found it difficult to find a good selection for twins (or higher order multiples).  Tiny Prints has a beautiful selection of twin Birth Announcements that are very fun. 

I also really like the personal feel of their party invitations!  They offer a wide variety of birthday party invitations for boys, girls, even a line of gender neutral.  Their Summer Party Invitations are very popular right now.   I’m also told that their Halloween Party invitations are quite popular.

Tiny Prints offers a great selection of cards, invitations and more just for the holidays!  We give out Photo Christmas Cards to all of our family and friends each year and I have to say the ones offered at Tiny Prints are fun, beautiful and simple!

Tiny Prints has also offered a $50 gift card for one of you.  All you have to do is visit Tiny Prints and take a look around.  Be sure to come back here and leave a comment telling us what your favorite item is and/or something you’d like to see at the shop.

This contest will end on July 28th.  If you have a chance to blog about it and let others know that’s always appreciated by these great contest sponsors (but not required to enter).

Recently Lisa Friedman, co-founder of Someone Spoil Me contacted me and told me about her great site.  You all know that I love sharing great shopping tips and information, but my time is more limited than ever right now with all of the end of the school year events, so I was really struggling to come up with anything new and fresh.   So she sent me great information on how to access the best gifts for dad, most of this post is taken from that email from her (with her permission of course ).

While Father’s Day may not be as commercially popular as Mother’s Day it is still a very important holiday and therefore warrants a gift to be given. You wouldn’t want Dad to be left in the dust, would you?

So now the pressure begins… what to give?  Gift giving can be extremely stressful and exhausting, as you not only need to come up with an idea that your dad will love but also find a store that sells that particular product. It certainly takes a lot of time and energy. Well, that was BEFORE you heard of SomeoneSpoilMe.com! They make gift giving easy, fast and hassle free!

Lisa Friedman and Alexis Stein are the experts behind this fabulous gift guide. For years people were always asking them “What should I give Dad for father’s day?” Or, more simply, “What should I give Amy since she just had a baby?” They always knew the perfect gift to give and the best place to get it from.

From the coolest gadgets to the softest blankets, nothing was off limits. For so many, gifting seems to be such a challenge, so the two expert decided to take their skills and stylish taste to a broader level (hello dot com). With that being said, SomeoneSpoilMe.com has evolved into the best online source for giving and getting fabulous gifts!

They realize that they are many types of dads out there with many different personalities. This is why they have broken down their father’s day gift guide (http://www.someonespoilme.com/gifts/fathers-day-gifts-personalized-dad-cool-dad/) so you easily find a gift for Dad.

So hop on over and take a look.

The safety of my children is a huge deal for me and I’m thrilled to be able to introduce all of you to a mom-owned business that offers solutions to every family’s safety needs! Kay Green is the mompreneur behind My Precious Kid. I heard about MPK a few years ago as I was searching for a one-stop-safety-shop for my family. I had been to an informational meeting that focused on children’s safety and they had mentioned ideas that I had never heard of before, so I went searching.

My Precious Kid was, by far the most comprehensive site, offering more useful safety products than anything else I found. From their child ID products and Car Seat ID’s to the everyday products like first aid kits, childproofing and much more. Kay began creating My Precious Kid ID Cards when she needed homeschool ID’s for her kids - I love it when a company is born out of one idea. From there, she found that the car seat ID cards available at many hospitals were difficult to update and change, so she created one with velcro so that it can be updated or even used for a different child down the road.

As far as safety products are concerned I highly recommend that EVERY parent has a child ID for each car seat and has a Child ID kit for every child in the family that is kept up-to-date and stored in a safe and easy to access location. These items offer peace of mind and can be a priceless resource in the event of an emergency!

If you’d like to take it one step further, get child ID bracelets for your youngsters, especially any who have allergies, asthma or special needs! They offer a large variety of products for all of this. They also offer the MediBuddy First Aid kit, a fun and very family friendly first aid kit that is small enough to keep in a purse or diaper bag! Some of their other bestsellers include the Wireless Door and Window Alarm, Personalized Dog Tags, Child Locator, Velcro ID Bracelet, Angel Guard Buckle Cover, and many more!

Kay gave me the opportunity to try out their Rewards Chore Chart and it was very fun! Bright and colorful and complete with ALL of the items you need (INCLUDING instructions) to create a successful plan for offering your child chores and rewards for completing them. Especially handy for children that are just getting started in being assigned tasks to do around the house.

Kay has offered all of you a great discount: 10% off using the code 112087654 (expires 12/08). What a great way to get all of the safety products you need for your family!

I am happy to be able to offer you the opportunity to win one of these great Reward Chore Charts for yourself. To enter:

~ Just hop on over to My Precious Kid and take a look around …

~ Then come back here and mention the products you love the most!

Calling all princesses, ballerinas, fairies and divas!  This is the shop and contest for you (and those you shop for)!

Since I don’t have a girl of my own I’m not often out looking for all of the adorable clothes and accessories that are available.  So when Natasha - owner of TuTu Cute contacted me about her adorable shop I was excited to go have a look.   Oh was I ever tickled to see all she offered once I got there (maybe it’s good I don’t have a girl to spend all my hubby’s hard earned money on, because I totally would at this shop)!

Natasha began creating these adorable tutus and other products when she was pregnant with her daughter in 2006.  She was so excited that her third child was finally a little girl and she had made tutus as gifts for friends and family, so she felt that TuTu Cute was the perfect fit for her new girlie life :) .

She offers several collections of tutus (and even boutique hairbows) for every style.  There’s the Garden Fairy Collection with layers of colorful tulle and pretty petals, and the Knotted Collection with it’s Pixie, Portrait and Little Lady styles.  She also carries a very fun TuTu dress and a sweet little “My First Tutu” just for infants - how cute is that?! 

Her most popular collection though is the Cadence Collection which offers three piece complete outfits featuring her adorable TuTus!  My favorite is the Pink Princess TuTu (which is also offered as an outfit) - the tutu that is featured at the top on the left.  It has more tulle than most tutus and is filled with 300 flower petals, sequins and pearls (WOW) and the waist is embellished with elegant satin embossed ribbon.  But there is something in this collection for girls of all styles!

One of my favorite things about TuTu Cute is that they offer a product that is handmade by a work at home mom, but it doesn’t stop there.  The TuTus are made of nylon tulle which is flame retardant, and all materials used in TuTu cute TuTus and outfits are bought and made in the USA!  So Natasha can honestly say that her products are proud to be MADE IN THE USA.

Brace yourselves ladies … not only has Natasha offered a WONDERFUL TuTu for a giveaway (we’ll get to that in a moment), but she has extended a very fun special offer for those of you who would like to go shopping at TuTu Cute!  Any of you who purchase a product from the Cadence Collection between now and May 15th will get a FREE Portrait TuTu in your choice of color (a $23 value!!!).  All you have to do is go to the Contact Us section after placing your order and send her an email stating which color Portrait TuTu you would like (just choose from the colors offered for that product).  Make sure you MENTION THIS CONTEST to get the free TuTu!!! 

As if that wasn’t enough, the pretty Princess TuTu that I mentioned earlier - the one pictured at the top on the right - yep, that one (a $45 value!) … Natasha is giving one of you the opportunity to win one of those TuTus!!!  I know you’re terribly excited about that, so here’s what I need you to do to enter (don’t worry it’s really quite simple):

• ~ Visit TuTu Cute and take a look around.
• ~ Come back here and leave a comment telling us your favorite product &/or a suggesion for a product you’d like to see offered.

It’s that simple!  Oh, and guess what … TuTu Cute can ship anywhere, so this contest is open to participants in all countries .  Please be sure to tell everyone about it, if you’re a blogger it would mean a lot to Natasha if you would spread the word about this shop and this contest in a post on your blog.

Be sure to enter by Tuesday May 13th.

Bella’s Blessings is a fun online boutique that specializes in affordable hair accessories and children’s jewelry.  When they say affordable they mean it!   Bella’s Blessings offers a variety of stylish children’s accessories such as: adhesive infant hair bows, stylish and affordable hair clips in a range of sizes for infants, babies, toddlers, and older children, decorative hair clips holders, and jewelry for the entire family.

They offer bracelets for infants, babies, toddlers and older children that range from pearl to crystal to personalized sterling silver. They also offer Mother & Grandmother bracelets that can be personalized with the names of their children/grandchildren. These bracelets make excellent gifts.

Lori’s favorite hairbows for her daughter when she was a newborn were kept in with a special gel, but they were very difficult to find so she started making them herself.   As her daughter began to get hair she ran into another dilemma, none of the bows she found would stay in and the ones she did find were too expensive.  So yet again she found a solution and began creating her own bows for her daughter.  People began asking her where she purchased the bows and how they could get some so she decided to bless others by offering these bows at very affordable prices.

She also began making jewelry after her mother-in-law purchased a little bracelet for little Isabella and she wore it home from the hospital.  Lori loved having her little girl wear these bracelets and again found that they were simply too expensive so she began making them herself and even giving them to friends.

It is really amazing that this business was created solely to bless others! I love that they name all of their clips after the children of friends and customers. Lori sent me a few clips for my niece and we were so excited! She even named one after her, but the part I loved most was that she personalizes the tags on each clip’s package! It really makes it a custom gift that the recipient will love. My niece was tickled!

Oh, and in case you’re wondering, the clips really do stay in hair! My niece has beautiful golden hair, but it is SUPER straight and it can be challenging to find clips or holders that will stay in - these work perfectly and our “Little Princess” wears them almost every day to school .

Lori has generously offered all of my readers a 10% discount through May 31st if you enter the code frog during checkout.

She has also offered a great giveaway:  The winner may choose any combination of hair accessory items (infant hair bows or small, medium or large hair clips) up to a value of $15.00! Entering is really quite simple:

~ Go to Bella’s Blessings and take a look around.
~ Come back here and leave a comment mentioning your favorite product/style.

This contest will be open for comments through May 8th.

There’s so many great mom-shops out there that I knew nothing about!  I am so glad when women like Rebecca, owner of Quote the Walls approach me and let me know about their great products!

Have you ever been to someone’s house and noticed that their walls were perfectly decorated and they even had custom hand lettered quotes on the walls?  I have and I think it is a fun idea . . . but waaaaay to time consuming.  Until I found out about Quote the Walls where I can get personalized wall lettering for my home that looks hand painted, but without the custom cost! 

The greatest part about Quote the Walls is that when they say personalized, they MEAN it!  Seriously!  They can make almost any quote you want for your wall (from scratch the way you want it) and even graphics for your walls.  You choose the quote, the font, the color - even art or graphics if you want and they take care of the details for you.  All you have to do is follow their 4 simple steps to apply the quotes to your walls!

I love the example featured above on the right!  Demonstrating a wonderful way to create a beautiful and personal wall with their products.  In case you’re wondering, their most popular products are nursery and children’s sayings with scripture verse following closely!

Rebecca has kindly extended free shipping to all of my readers.  All you have to do is enter the code: SHIP before you check out!  So be sure to head over and start looking around. 

She’s also offering a very generous $50 gift certificate for one very lucky commenter to use in her shop!  WOW!   To enter you need to do the following:

1. Visit Quote the Walls and take a look around.
2. Come back here and tell us your favorite item(s).

Be sure to enter by May 6th! 

Another fabulous invention of a work at home mom, the Baby Sharmooz was created to help keep infants from going bald.   I remember this being a problem even before back-sleeping was mandated.  The amount of time an infant spends laying, sleeping, swinging and bouncing definitely gives those little heads a good rub.

This patented design resembles a pillow but is really a headrest thus posing no suffocation hazard.  It is created to fit perfectly into an infant’s environment and activities.  The Baby Sharmooz is great to use in cribs, car seats, bouncy seats, swings and more.  This inventive mom realized that if using satin pillowcases for herself worked to keep her hair styles in tact then why not use it for her baby!  And it worked! 

Their products are created with crepe back Charmeuse satin - a high quality grade of 100% woven satin that feels silky smooth!   Then add in the luxurious minky fabric and it’s just as cuddly as it is functional and cute!  Their most popular product is the Hot pink with Cheetah trim Pillowcases and Headrest! 

Sharmooz offers Pillowcases, Infant Headrests and even Blankets!  So I encourage you to hop over and take a look around!  While you’re there you are welcome to take advantage of the generous 15% discount Ann has offered my readers if you use the code: baby15 during checkout!

If you’d like to win a Baby Sharmooz for the little prince or princess in your life, be sure to leave a comment mentioning your favorite product &/or color by May 1st.
