Do have a hard time finding pjs/nightgowns for your girls? Me too. Sarah Waldo offers two styles that I love — one’s a pj set in seersucker check, one’s a nightie with cap sleeves. In addition to the sleepwear, I’m digging the Abigail sweatsuit and the Sylvie pant.
Also. How am I just now finding Sarah Waldo? What a great line — and everything they make is organic.
Aren’t these clocks beautiful? Made from natural walnut. The hands are available in four colors. Blue, pink, orange and yellow.
So much fun! On Wednesday, I had the chance to interview two of the lucky Generation Huggies Video Winners. It was such a treat. Both were so surprised to have their video chosen. I wrote a post about their experiences over at The Motherhood. Check it out! (By the way, I can’t embed the videos here, but you can see all 30 winning entries on the Generation Huggies website.)
Oh my goodness, I am craving a Giveaway. A really good Giveaway. And I’ve got one. The ladies at the handmade heaven, Seven Smooches, are the sponsors. They’re putting up a $150 Gift Certificate for their shop! Plus. A gorgeous Lavender Filled Dove — to calm and comfort you during this troubled winter.
Don’t those doves look endlessly cozy? As I’ve mentioned before, the products coming out of the Seven Smooches shop are gorgeous. And because of the nature of the source materials, every single item is one of a kind. One of a kind. The fall/winter line is made from recycled sweaters. The spring/summer line is made from recycled sheets and feedsacks. Everything is super soft and full of tiny delicate details. All while remaining fully machine washable.
If I had $150 to spend on Seven Smooches products, I don’t think I would stop smiling for a week. And I’d have quite the time deciding what to buy. Because each item is prettier than the next. Since it’s so chilly this month, the Fall/Winter collection of mittens and sweaters and cozies seem the most tempting.
But maybe I’d pick up something from the Spring/Summer collection instead (the skimmers! the pillow slip! the bonnet!) and stare at it until I willed an early arrival of warm weather.
I want to note, the little dove is accompanied by a little message:
May each day of this year be lovely and kind, full of peace and joy, greeting you like a smile from a child. And my our little dove made of cozy cashmere & calming lavender bring you a bit of comfort, a moment of peace, & a needed smile.
I’m comforted already. Thank you for the generous prize, Seven Smooches!
