Miranda Mueller Personalized Art Designs {Giveaway}

Posted by · Leave a Comment

Searching for a unique baby gift can be a challenging job. Miranda Mueller’s web site and Etsy shop provide a multitude of exciting options for many important events. Miranda Mueller, who has a masters degree in art and design, has created works of art featuring the baby’s name along with a colorful picture. I chose “H for Henry” along with a picture of a sailboat. I received my work of art in less than a week. It was made on recycled paper with colored pencils and optional embroidery. I love having a personalized baby gift and I was pleased with the creativity and style of the work. To order personalize artwork:

  • Clients contact the artist via the web site with the baby’s name and size preference.
  • A 5×7 is $35 and an 8×10 is $50. Although most clients choose the 5×7 she can make them as large as 12×18 which would be $100.
  • After Ms.Mueller receives the information she will send a few animal ideas with the child’s name. From this point you would work together to choose your favorite. Ms.Mueller would respond with the final sketch for approval.
  • Once the final sketch is approved the final piece is completed within the week. She accepts checks as well as PayPal and ships USPS. Artwork is shipped unframed and usually arrives in 3-5 days depending on location.

The artist also included a cute laminated postcard with her work. It is evident that she has a passion for children and animals which is well-displayed in her work. Please visit her web site at Mirandar Mueller and Flying Panda.

Punkaboo Waterproof Labels, Notecards & Tags {Giveaway}

Posted by · Leave a Comment

They say necessity is the mother of invention, and one mother of three decided to forgo tape and sharipe pens for a more stylish solution. Lucky for the rest of us who aren’t creatively inclined or have extra time on our hands to manufacture adorable waterproof labels or bag tags for our kids, Punkaboo can do these thing and more. Aside from custom labels which are dishwasher, microwave and chlorine safe, Punkaboo also has calling cards and note cards with coordinated gel pens and (my favorite) packages with combinations of bags and labels for one person. Thinking about what to label? Try bottles, sippy cups, toys, books or school supplies for starters. We used the bag tag for our daughter’s book bag and waterproof labels on sippy cups and books that make their way to the sitter’s house. What set Punkaboo apart from other label companies are their very reasonable prices–waterproof labels are only $12.00 per sheet (21-50 labels depending on size.) Sorry I couldn’t show y’all the cute packing and labels/tags we receive from Punkaboo, but they’re emblazoned with the kids’ names. But maybe you can win your own or at the very least take a discount on your order.

Cool Giveaway: Enter to win a *Punkaboo Gift Package* including one sheet of small and one large waterproof labels and two bag tags. Items will be personalized for up to two people, and the winner can select from any Punkaboo design! To enter, visit their site and comment back here with your favorite design. Get two additional entries for following on Facebook and/or following on Twitter. Leave two extra comments for each. Expires 3/11/10.

Posted by · Leave a Comment

Say hello to Bridgette, my friend and compadre on Double Duty Divas, a blog promotion and networking site we recently launched, who models tees on the side. “Divas” by the way refer to ourselves as we balance parenting, professional and blogging. One cool way we’re promoting the site is with the pictured personalize tee from Executees who create customized shirts made with CRYSTALLIZED™ Swarovski Elements. Not only does it look super cute, the shirt holds up to washing and is soft and comfy too.

Haven’t created a business or website recently to promote? They offer other spiffy styles too including tees for brides and weddings, kids and completely personalized styles as well. As extensive catalog of Bella shirts lets customers choose anything from standard long or shirt sleeve tees to hoodies, terry pants and more. Years ago I purchased a pair of yoga pants at the Utica Boilermaker 15K with the Bella label and have yet to give them up even torn and tattered after since they really are my #1 favorite pants for comfort. So if you’re looking for a fancied up personalize shirt or pants for yourself or the kids, Executees is a cool pick we’re happy to spotlight.

Cool Tip: As Valentine’s Day approached, Excutees is ready with various heart designs including my favorite solid heart at the top of their homepage.

See It’s Me Books: Enter to Win a Customized Children’s Book

Posted by · Leave a Comment

What child doesn’t love to her a story about their family…or better yet, about themselves? See It’s Me Books allows you to personalize a children’s story to create a unique gift. The books are targeted to children ages two to seven, and the stories are great for little minds and ears. I loved that the images of the characters in the book are customized so kids can relate the story to the special people in their life; my kids loved it too. I received the Fun Family Trip book for my five and three year old. It was the next best thing to actually paying a visit to grandma’s house without carting all the stuff! The rhyming nature of the book kept the interest of my three year old. The kids were both enthralled since they could relate to the story. What a great way to get kids interested in reading with a “real-life” book starring themselves.

With the upcoming holiday, you can capture the family’s traditions with your child’s Special Christmas Story book. See Its Me! Books makes a great gift for any child or family and is a keepsake for years to come.

Bugaboo Announcments: Kids’ Note Cards {Giveaway}

Posted by · Leave a Comment

I read once on an etiquette site that at a certain age kids should begin to write their own thank you notes. Though I can’t remember the age, these fill in the blank thank you cards for kids seem like an easy way to break them in. Even my three year old, with our help, can write her name to the bottom for a personalized thank you. For less specific purposes, the personalized note cards by Bugaboo Announcements are darling too with various designs that you can pair with the child’s name. I’m a sucker for any well-designed website to pair with a perfect product and Bugaboo fits that bill. The cute factor alone will have your browsing though the site for longer than an average browse. A final though…the return address stickers and cool birth announcements are worth noting, no pun intended.

Cool Giveaway: Enter to win a set of 12 Bugaboo Notes Notecards and set of 24 matching return address labels by visiting their site and commenting back here with your favorite note card design. US residents only.

Extra Entries: Find out how to earn unlimited entries and read the contest rules and disclaimer including how to subscribe for winner notification. Ends 12/16/09.
