Colette Kids - Unisex Designs for the Little Ones

Mom/graphic designer Anita Lee recently introduced me to her sassy line of baby clothes, Colette Kids. I’m so glad she did; her line is perfect for a new baby gift. After years of designing for corporate clients, Anita decided to dabble into the world of fashion as she was expecting her own bundle of joy. Lucky us!

Colette Kids’ infant onesies are made with soft 100% USDA certified organic combed cotton, with sizes from 6 to 18m. The toddler tees are made with 100% combed cotton, with sizes 2T and 4T. All products are made in U.S.A. and individually silk-screened by hand. They are also cute as all get out.

I think Sy would look just smashing in a Ling Ling panda tee and I’m sure Offspring, Version 2.0 would look just as nifty all decked out in a Wilbur the turtle onesie.

I’m always so impressed with moms who achieve both career and child-rearing simultaneously. Add a splash of fashion to the mix and I’m your fan for life.

Ooh and even cooler! Colette Kids is offering a 10% discount for GHM readers (coupon code: gearheadmom10). Offer expires on 7/20.

How Fast They Grow and How Fast the Digital Pictures Add Up

OK so I am totally intrigued by this company, check it out. How Fast They Grow, a mom-run company, is putting a digital twist on traditional scrapbooking. After the birth of her child four years ago, founder Cathy Bennett became disillusioned with the time-consuming nature of scrapbooking. So instead of sitting around and complaining about it like I would, she went and figured out a way to digitize the scrapbook.

How Fast They Grow allows parents to make lovely scrapbook pages on their computer in about 7 minutes and have them printed by HFTG. Just drag and drop your digital images into a cagillion different pre-designed templates, enter your own copy and boom, you’re done. You can even design and order just one printed page at a time. I like the idea of getting it done per event. Not as much pressure as sitting down with three rolls of printed pictures and no clue where to start.

Children’s Place = Best Place For Socks

The Children’s Place is offering our readers $10.00 off all orders over $75.00 through June 14th. Just enter code MSA68 at checkout. Thanks, Children’s Place!

My favorite item to purchase there is socks. Exciting stuff, but I’ve gone through a lot of socks with Sy and I think that Children’s Place has the best ones. They are thick without making her feet hot and they never slide down. That and they actually last the whole year that is emblazoned on the bottom of the sock. I find that their clothes usually run a size small for Sy, but not the socks, they are right on.
