Agoo Leggings Review & Giveaway!!

Did you know it was Argyle week?? Me neither...until the wonderful people at Agoo let me know!

November 19th is official "Argyle Day" and to help celebrate Agoo has generously offered one of my readers a 3 pack of Argyle Bamboo Leggings!!



I just received a pair of the Candy Argyle leggings and couldn't be happier with them. They are super soft and are a great size for my daughter's adorable (chubby) legs, I know they will fit her for a long time. She wore them all day today and they stayed up perfectly--love that!



I am a HUGE fan of leggings on little girls. They are a perfect alternative to tights and make diaper changes so much easier. They also look ridiculously cute under skirts and dresses. My daughter wore her's with a jean skirt today and they looked adorable. I have to say that Agoo honestly has the cutest selection of designs & patterns that I've come across.



Here's what Agoo has to say about their leggings:

Our Agoo Leggings are designed for little girls on the move. Be it crawling, climbing, running or dancing, Agoo Leggings offer protection with fabulous function and flare.

They're great for keeping legs cozy in cold weather. They're terrific for EC babies ad toilet training. They're perfect for crawling on hard surfaces. They're ideal for those with sensitive skin.

Our innovative, eco-friendly Agoo Leggings are made from 100% sustainable Bamboo fibres. One size fits all.

Shutterfly 2010 Holiday Card Review!



I am addicted to Shutterfly...plain and simple! So I am thrilled to be doing this review.

I have been using Shutterfly for years and I couldn't be happier with all of the products I've received, their prices, shipping times and dealing with their customer service.

We have always picked out and designed our Christmas Cards, and we actually have fun doing it too. It's the most user friendly "photo" site that I have come across. This will be our 4th year and I can't wait to start browsing all of the adorable designs. I absolutely love how you can completely customize, from the card size, to how many pictures you want to use, the font, etc. Not to mention the TONS of design options, definitely something for everyone's taste. Picking the exact amount of pictures we wanted to use really came in handy last year...because *shockingly* I couldn't get my then 2 1/2 year old & 6 month old to get a decent shot together. This way I could have one picture of my son and one picture of my daughter. This year I'm hoping to use a bunch of pictures. I was thinking maybe...one of my son, one of my daughter, one of them together and maybe even one of the dog??!!! ;)

My favorite part is definitely picking out which design we like best. In the past we've used these three: (and I still LOVE them!)



The 2010 Holiday Cards are FABULOUS! I don't know how I am going to choose! I'm thinking of doing something a little different...maybe this one:

I love all the different pictures and that they are different sizes,
my kids better cooperate this year!!!



There are several other products that I adore from Shutterfly.

Every year I make my Mom a calendar with all of her grandkid's photos, it always comes out super cute and we all know to grab her some tissues every time she opens one up ;)



I also started making photo books for all of our big occasions, and they have turned out beautifully. I have one for my baby shower, both of my kid's first Christmases, baptisms and first birthdays....with PLENTY more to come! My kids LOVE looking through these to remember all of our special times.





And of course...I order all of my regular prints from Shutterfly as well. (thousands...not joking!) Their prices are extremely reasonable and they always offer fantastic promotions. I spoke with customer service through email once and they were super nice and helpful, a pleasure to deal with.

Oh yeah, got both my kids birth announcements too...I TOLD YA I was addicted! ;)


So head on over and pick out YOUR favorite Holiday Card... I know I can't wait to get mine!

Tubby Tabby Review

This is my first "official" review and I am more than excited about it! I absolutely love finding unique handmade items and especially love chatting with the great people who make them! I've been wanting to do some reviews for a while now and found myself the perfect opportunity.

A few weeks ago, while tweeting, I came across a tweet that said something like this..."be the 1,000 person to do this... and get a special gift" Ok, I'm paraphrasing there but you get the idea ;) I jumped all over it. I clicked on the link and was brought to a super cute shop on Etsy (ahhh Etsy...I was already in love) So I check out the shop's "hearts" and there were 999! I "hearted" them and that was that. A little while later I got a message saying I won...I was the 1,000 to heart their shop...YAY!!! I then met Jodi, the owner of Tubby Tabby, who let me pick out any item. How cool is that?!

Tough choice here because everything caught my eye, but I picked out a Scrabble Tile Pendant, I LOVE upcycled products! I wasn't sure which letter to go with as she let me have the choice. Hmm...S for me...R or E for my kiddos or D for the hubs. I went with the "D". (how could I choose between my monsters?!)

Tubby Tabby has way more than upcycled items...check out this necklace that was just listed today--beautiful! Earrings, sterling silver and so much more!

Jodi was SUPER nice during our convos, made me an awesome necklace and even included another necklace! Everything was done quickly and packaged adorably! (I am a sucker for cute packaging...that extra touch really makes a difference)

I'll let her work speak for itself...check out the pics!



If you plant that little cat on top of the box it grows cat nip...umm...how cool is that? I gave it to my nephew and he is growing some right now for his cats!!



Here is the necklace I picked out, I love it -- GREAT quality!

Love for my hubs!


She included an extra!! I gave this one to my niece who is a Junior in High School...she loves it and so do her friends! This would make an excellent gift!


It's a Domino!

Show Tubby Tabby some LOVE!


Thanks Jodi!!

HELP!!

Hey there...creative & crafty friends :)

I need some help naming my brand new Rag Quilt Snuggler!!





Go check out the pic on my fan page and let me hear what ya got!!


Have a great weekend!!! xoxo
