Giveaway: Monkey Foot Designs

THIS GIVEAWAY IS CLOSED!

CONGRATS TO CARRIE HAUGHEY!!!

Anyone who cloth diapers knows that a wet bag is a *must*.

I mean, how else would you be able to tote around a dirty diaper in your Petunia Pickle Bottom bag?

And puhleease...don't *even* suggest a plastic grocery bag!

Just because it has a poopy diaper in it doesn't mean it can't be cute! :)



But Jeannett...I don't do cloth diapers...in fact, my kid is well beyond the diaper stage! I have no need for this!

Really now...

-Summer's coming up. Swim lessons? Beach trips? Running through sprinklers at a friend's house? A wet bag is a PERFECT way to haul the dripping stuff home.

-In the middle of potty training your toddler? Accidents happen. In public. 'Nuff said.

-No kids? Do you go to the gym? Need a place to toss your stinky clothes in? Or maybe your own swimsuit after a few laps in the Olympic sized pool? (I can't relate since I don't exercise, but I can imagine this being a problem...)

-And really, with as cute as these bags are, you can just use it AS. A. BAG. for whatever. It doesn't *have* to carry wet stuff just because it's called a wet bag! ;) Lunches, snacks, coloring books...whatever!

Monkey Foot Designs not only makes wet bags, but they make THE wet bag...

"...the lining material has sealed seams (which means that the wet and odor stay *in* where they belong!). The seals are permanent, so you can wash the bags time and again and the seams will stay sealed and wet-proof! (it's impossible to make a truly "waterproof" bag, but this bag comes close!). My bags also have snaps on the straps, so you can attach them to your stroller or where-ever else suits your fancy :)"




Kris at Monkey Foot Designs wants to give YOU one of her large wet bags (14" x 14") in Almond Sparrows (one of her most popular prints!).



As always, you have five ways to win.
Be sure to leave a separate comment for each entry.

1) Visit Monkey Foot Designs and tell me how you would use your wet bag.

Winner to be announced first thing Friday morning!

Giveaway: CitySlips

This giveaway is CLOSED.
Congrats to Rachel!

I swear...I normally would tell you I never win anything...

but it seems like I've been winning a bunch of these blog giveaway things lately!

I recently won a pair of CitySlips from another blog, and after contacting the company, they are graciously offering one of you a pair too!

CitySlips is a really cool idea.



Basically, a pair of super cute ballet flats that fold in half.

Why?

Because that way, you can carry them in their matching pouch in your purse or diaper bag...
...still wear your uber fab stillettos...

...and when your toes (inevitably) throb after a few hours, you can pull out your CitySlips, unzip the pouch to become a full size tote...


...pop your fab heels in the tote and keep right on going with your day in comfort!



I wore my CitySlips today, and they are SUPER comfy. And did I mention they are cute too?

I was worried that they would be flimsy (nope), that the folding sole would bug me (nope), or that the design of the rubber bottoms would feel weird (nope).

The only "thing" is that I should have ordered the size small...the sizing is Small: 5-6; Medium: 7-8; Large: 9-10. I wear a size 6.5/7, so I got the Medium...they're not huge or anything, just a note if you fall in between the size range go with the smaller end. FYI.

(Oh, and in case you were wondering, I got the gold ones.)

These would make GREAT bridesmaids gifts after a long night of dancing, perfect for leaving in the trunk for mamas on the go, or a place of refuge whenever your other shoes make you want to cry Uncle!



As usual, you have 5 ways to win:

1) Visit CitySlips and leave a comment telling me which color you would get if you win.
2) Follow me on Twitter.
3) Blog about this giveaway.
4) Facebook about this giveaway.
5) Tweet about this giveaway.

I will pick a winner first thing Friday, March 5th.

Good Luck!

Giveaway: Less Ordinary Designs

TOLD you there would be more! :)


This fabulousness was our birth announcement.

Designed with and by Sara at Less Ordinary Designs.


She also does ultra-cute Christmas photo cards. Love. Them.

Here's how it works: you work with Sara on a design (which by the way, she is *awe.some*). She emails you a .jpg of the file, which you then take (or email) to any place that develops photos...and print off as many as you want. I did mine through winflash.com, but you could use snapfish, shutterfly, walmart, costco...wherever you prefer.

I ordered envelopes through Envelope Mall.

Way easy, way custom and way cheap.

Wanna win a $15 credit to design your own fabulousness?

1. Head over to Less Ordinary Designs and come back and tell me which design you like best.
2. Follow me on Twitter.
3. Become a follower of my blog.
4. Tweet about this giveaway.
5. Facebook about this giveaway.

Be sure to leave a SEPARATE comment for each.

Giveaway will be open until Friday 5:00 a.m. PT, at which time I will choose a winner.

Good Luck!

What better way to do that than to intice you all with really great FREE stuff???!!!

Can I get a woop woop?!

This week's giveaway comes from Anna, who owns the LilaFrances etsy shop.



I mean, really...could these BE cuter?!

I ordered a couple of these...one for a baby shower and another for an upcoming bride.

And, *seriously* for as cute as these are in the photos, I absolutely SWOONED when I opened up the package and saw them in real life.

Don't have a baby? Give it to someone who does!

I am even considering ordering one with our last name and putting it up in the laundry room.

How cute would that be???!!!
