Bellaziza - Pretty Precious. Exquisite Children's Accessories

Many thanks to Tasha L., one of our fabulous readers, for this great find!  It really is such a great idea and the perfect gift for any little artist!

Art2Believe takes your child’s original artwork and recreates it into a doll, pillow, or even does custom work to whatever you would like!  Take a look at www.art2believe.com and you will see lots of beautiful examples of their work.  What better way to preserve those precious little drawings or to show your little Picasso just how great you think their masterpiece is?

Have you ever been in a bind for a great gift but weren’t exactly sure what to get?  With kids you can just do an age-appropriate toy and call it a day if you need to, but we think that a Custom Made For Kids Book is your best bet.  It’s very unique and appropriate for kids from birth to age 8.  You can purchase a gift certificate for one and then they (or mom and dad) get to have the super fun experience of creating their own!  It will then be printed and sent in the mail which is even more fun - doesn’t everyone just love getting a special package?  It’s also a great answer to a gift for those kids who seem to have everything, without breaking your bank at only $32.95 at www.custommadeforkids.com.  

Books are always a perfect gift.  This book beats all though, truly capturing your child’s memories and personality all in one beautifully illustrated package.  We were also impressed by the creativity of the illustrations, the quality of the paper and it’s durability.  Being that they are made to preserve these memories of childhood, we loved the fact that they were so well-constructed and thoughtfully meant to last throughout the years.

Sarah and Sarah, owners of Custom Made For Kids have created a very unique product, and one that will help capture the memories of childhood for your family.  Until August 31, they are offering 20% off of your own order with code adventures20 too!  Take this opportunity to check out their website and order one for your family.  We really do love ours!

We just wanted to pass this GREAT resource on to all of you online shoppers!  Did you have any idea that you can actually get PAID to shop online?  YES, and we are talking real hard cash!!  Okay, they send you a check in the mail, but that’s pretty incredible if you ask us!  Hooray Ebates.com!!!

It’s so easy too!  You can shop at any of the normal places that you would shop online, just get there through clicking their link to whatever site you are going to shop on at Ebates.com before you go!  You will then receive a percentage of what you spend into your Ebates.com account - that’s your Ebate Rebait!  You just sign into Ebates, connect to the website of your choice via their link, and you paid!  

There are also some super deals that you will have access to exclusively through Ebates.com like the $25 off code that they gave me at Bloomingdales.com.  It had no minimum purchase, so I bought my $45 sandals for only $20!  I also received 7% of the total of my purchase back into my Ebates account!  Now that’s an incredible deal.

Trust us when we say that it is definitely a must have for anyone that shops online!  Not only for the cash back, but for the access to the best online discount codes.  Could you ask for more?  YES!  For a limited time get $5 in your Ebates account just for signing up!  Just click on any of the links posted here to get going!

I just wanted to forward around a really fantastic site to help all expectant and new mothers who are breastfeeding.

This site, www.awomanswork.com is an absolutely wonderful resource for breastfeeding mothers and even has a center located in Houston, TX that offers different classes and support groups for all sorts of mom-ish things. I remember when our little Isabella was born and I would have found this to be extremely useful, so enjoy:)!

Not only are they one of Houston’s premiere children’s and maternity boutiques, but they also offer lots of very unique and useful services that I never would have known where to find like…

• Telephone and in-person lactation consultations with a board certified lactation consultant.

• Personal assistance with the purchase of nursing supplies and clothing.

• Custom fitting of Houston’s largest selection of nursing bras.

• Personal assistance with the rental or purchase of breastpumps.

• Scheduled appointments available for personal breastpump set-up and use.

• In-store baby weighing 7 days a week and weight tracking software for the first 2 years of life.

How helpful! Great job Woman’s Work team! If I had only known about you 20 months ago, and lived in Houston;)!

Baby Grace Baby Planner in Rockwall, TX is definitely a location that every mom and mom-to-be in the Dallas area should know. They are really taking the ‘experience’ of preparing for baby to a whole new level! First of all, their selection of products is unparalleled in this area from the classic Italian Inglesina prams to the simply gorgeous selection of everything else that you could possibly ever need or want. Think ‘nursery of my dreams’ and that is what you will get at Baby Grace.The other thing that makes Baby Grace so unique is the way that they incorporate their services into your experience.
