SPOTLIGHT BLOGS

Today we’re spotlighting blogs we love, and turn to on a daily basis for inspiration and entertainment value.   Collectively, we chose these three blogs because of their savvy content and interesting perspective on life, family, fashion, design, pop culture, and so much more.  But individually, there’s a very special reason why each of these blogs is near and dear to our hearts.  If you’re not already familiar with them, we hope you discover the same good humor and interesting content that we have grown to adore.  Here’s a synopsis and link to each of our spotlight blogs:

The Haystack Needle is a winning combination of great design finds and sweet new mommy and baby moments, adventures and discoveries.  Not to mention the blog, written by a very crafty former magazine home editor, features a handful of creative and on-trend DIY projects.

My New Favorite Day is a daily reminder to stop and recognize moments in your life, so that you can truly be grateful for each day.  The blog is written by a smart and successful career woman who is also the mother of multiples with special needs.

Cool Mom Picks is THE source for cool and fashionable gear for moms.  The selection and quality of products and services featured on this blog make looking and feeling fabulous a breeze.

SISTER, SISTER

When we think about sisters, so many wonderful things come to mind, including the lyrics from “Sisters, Sisters”:

“I’m there to keep my eye on her;
Caring, sharing;
Every little thing that we are wearing”

It’s the perfect theme for our new line of Big Sister Tshirt designs that are launching in March. They’re sure to be a hit with your firstborn daughter and even more so with her pint-size sibling who undoubtedly looks up to her. Each personalized Big Sister Tshirt is made of super soft, thick cotton and printed with vibrant, long-lasting inks. Whether your girls are princesses or tomboys, there is a design for every little personality.

Here’s a sneak peek of just a few of our Big Sister Tshirt designs coming in March … which Big Sister Tshirt fits your little one’s personality best?

ALL THINGS WHIMSICAL

We love all things whimsical and this playroom we found on Pinterest shouts WHIMSY!  The soft colors and delicate fabrics woven throughout the room create a fanciful place for kids to play and imagine.  And by adding a few custom touches to the walls, like one of our personalized growth charts or alphabet posters, this playroom would become a warm, meaningful place that any kid would be happy to call their own.

We’ve hand-selected a few personalized growth charts and alphabet posters for this playroom.  Which is your favorite?
