Birdy Bird Boutique {#WinnerWonderland Sponsor Spotlight}

Do you love giving handmade items to your loved ones for the holidays? Do you know someone that is expecting a new bundle of joy in the upcoming months? Then I urge you to check out Kelly’s Birdy Bird Boutique on Etsy. Birdy Bird Boutique specializes in unique hand-made props with the photographer in mind. Whether its perfecting an outfit or adding a personal touch to photo shoots, BBB strives to provide quality made products using a variety of colors, fibers and designs. 
I first stumbled upon BBB when I was looking for unique hats for my sweet Brayden’s newborn pictures. I had “liked” her facebook page and watched for that “right” hat during her many comment auctions that go on. It wasn’t until the beginning of October when I saw the whimsey woodland gnome hat listed for the auction and knew I had to be the first comment! A few days later my hat arrived and I was so thrilled with the quality of the yarn and workmanship. Plus, the shipping was so fast which was great seeing as though the little man arrived three weeks early. Any of BBB’s hats or headbands will add that special touch to any photo shoot and keep your loved one’s head nice and cozy during the winter months (plus, super cute to boot!)

Have you seen those too cute for words yarn wreaths that are circulating pinterest? Have you pinned one but cannot find the time to make one with the holidays fast approaching? Then you need to check out un.wreathed. on Etsy. Jamie’s wreaths are so darn cute and perfect to add some holiday cheer to any front door! 

About the Designer:

One day I saw a yarn wreath tutorial online and said aloud to my husband (who is a pain in the butt) that I was going to make one. I am not crafty AT ALL, so of course he said in so many words that I would start but not finish the wreath. I bought the supplies for a Halloween wreath as my first run and 3 hours later….voila! He didn’t have a whole lot to say at that point except it looked good. He now claims he never doubted me after selling several to friends and online customers. I still love him though, and am almost thankful he put me up to the challenge because I get in these weird moods where I zone out thinking of fun color and texture combos that I can now put to use. I think besides the monetary benefit of opening an etsy shop and selling something you work hard to make is the feeling of accomplishment and flattery that someone appreciates what you have created. Its very satisfying and I recommend everybody try it sometime. I love yarn wreaths because they are so customizable and adorable, plus they are thoughtful gifts (especially when you have those relatives who seem to have EVERYTHING…like my granny). Right now I am using any proceeds from selling my wreaths to save for a luxating patella surgery for my oldest pug, Leeroy Brown. It’s a win-win for him because he loves the watch the yarn as I work on the wreaths!


Leeroy Brown – isn’t he precious?

Un.Wreathed. has so generously added one multi-colored yarn wreath to my Winner Wonderland giveaway package. Make sure to come back from November 27th through December 4th for your chance to win. Can’t wait? Check out Un.Wreathed on Etsy for the additional 15% off her all ready great prices to help the puppy out!

thankful mornings

Most of my mornings are spent snuggling with one babe in each arm. I love this and I am thankful that I am able to stay home with them right now. I love Payton’s big squeezes and endless kisses as she is waking up. This morning was not any different than any other morning except Payton was trying to catch dust that was flying through the air. We were up extra early and the sun was shining brightly through my blinds. I had been feeding the baby and as she was clapping through the air he threw-up and Wonder Pets kept singing their song. It’s mornings like this that God made me a mommy. It doesn’t get any better than  this and I am thankful. 
Payton loves her baby brother Brady. She continues to tell him how cute he is and gives him plenty of kisses. 

Rockin’ Green Soap {#fluffyxmas sponsor spotlight}

Are you dealing with relentless diaper stains? Does your babes sweet tooshie keep breaking out in a rash? Are you struggling to find the right detergent for your needs? Then look no further! Rockin’ Green’s Eco-friendly cleaning products will turn the funk going on in your laundry and home around! Not only is Rockin’ Green great for your cloth diapers it also kicks butt on your regular laundry, dog beds, your child’s toys and de-funks your washing machine!

What originally caught my attention about Rockin’ Green was it’s modern and trendy logo and name. While I am not cleaning cloth diapers I was instantly impressed when my sample arrived with it’s bold packaging and scratch and sniff sticker attached. I wanted to get started on laundry right away but wanted to try it out on some really soiled clothes so I waited for our newest bundle to arrive so I could try it out on the effects of a blow-out, sorry for the visual but it’s the closest thing I’ve got! Plus, with any new baby we tend to use a hyper-allergenic detergent free of dyes to ensure our wee one’s skin isn’t affected. The cool thing about Rockin’ Green is that I didn’t have to use the scent free blah detergent, I could use the yummy scent of smashing watermelons to freshen up the load! Once the load was complete I was instantly surprised how great everything smelled and how clean everything was including the washer! My next load I tackled our doggies bed, which any dog owner understands how yucky their beds get and voila! It was like brand new!

A little bit about Rockin’ Green Soap:

Most well-known for their clean-rinsing laundry detergent formulated for use on all fabrics and especially useful on cloth diapers, Rockin’ Green produces detergents for hard, soft and normal water conditions (known as Hard, Soft and Classic Rock varieties).
Rockin’ Green also carries Funk Rock, a first-of-its kind natural ammonia bouncer, and Melody, an odor-neutralizer and air freshener home spray.
