Free Giveaway: Mixtape Love toddler tee by HeatherJeany

*love*sigh*melts*sigh*wipes drool*

There are so many amazing things to say about Heather Jeany... that I honestly dont even know where to begin. Ariel over at the Off Beat Mama had a little shout out to this shop while back, and no doubt - she picked the right shop. Now - im not gunna tell you what i saw (right now) cuz Im gunna save the best for last... but lets just say it was love at first sight.
A lil from Heather: "Hi- my name is Heather Toupin, I live in a little house where I like to make little things. I collect forgotten odds and ends; bits of wire+ribbon, other people's shopping lists, broken baby dolls, old lace, ripped up photographs. Everything you see is hand printed, one by one, by me and my trusty Print Gocco. I use a lot of silly vintage clip art as well as my own artwork." And I gotta say... her detail shows. Check it out... In no particular order... my favorites...
The mix tapes love card... she sent me one of these... the quality is amazing... like no other handmade card I have ever seen... Im saving it to stash away in hubby's lunch box :) I leave him little love notes... so i will definitely be back for more of these... and at only $3 each?? Thats a steal...
Valentine Print... I think i NEED this... i dunno where in my house... maybe the bedroom... lots of black & red & damask... i think it'd fit... but all i know is I have been drooling since I saw it. And again... just $10 for a handscreened 8.5x11 piece of art? AMAZING!Faux Bois Tree Stump coasters... I dunno why i love these so much. I mean, Im kinda crunchy... but not like... "decorate the house in trees like a hippie" crunchy... but I would totally rock these... and last but most definitely not least (cuz i lied, these are my favorite) her mix tape t's... for the mama's...da daddies...
and.................. the babies :)*melt* the adorable baby definitely helps sell the shirt too... :) Speaking of adorable babies in the rad mix tape shirt... it seems I have a few of those too... thanks Heather for letting us try it out! Its our new favorite t :)

And because Heather is so insanely rad, cool, awesome, hip, fly - whatever you wanna call her, because all are true, she has allowed us to give one away to you!! One lucky winner will get their choice of baby mix tape onesie (with hearts 3 Month, 6 Month, 9 Month and 12 Month) or toddler t-shirt (2t, 4t, or 6t)! How stoked are you!? So you know the drill!

New Hoodie(s)!! Yay! This time... stuff for daddy too!

Daddy & Me... coordinating hoodies for daddy&tot...
JCole requested this hoodie... i love it... so had to make a matching kids one... I appliqued on this rad fabric, that i LOVE... in the typical RockerByeBaby fashion... raw edges so they distress when you wash it... tons of rounds of wiggly stitches for the rockin' look & feel... and of course... the best part of all... i lined the hood with red minky... cuz it wouldn't be RockerbyeBaby without the best minky :) Whatcha think?! Itll be listed in the store within the week i hope!

Favorites Friday.... on Tuesday :) Vinyls

This week... totally random theme, but with the big move coming I have been planning new decor... and i am loving all these vinyl wall stickers... and having a REALLY hard time picking a couple cuz I want them all, but fear that would just look silly, lol On the flip side... vinyls are great for condo living where you can't paint... they are easy to take down... but still add personality. So here are some of the themes we have picked out for the new place...
Living Room: Traditional Tattoos... found some cool sailor Jerry flash canvases with pinups... anchors, etc. way cool. Lots of Reds, Creams & Browns..
Master Bedroom: its all done in the Damask Rock fabric... red curtains, and I bought some awesome tin stars w/ damask here on etsy to coordinate... SO excited..
Master Bathroom: Old Hollywood... bought some Marilyn Monroe & Audrey Hepburn art... then made a few cute pieces myself!
Boys room... Pirates!
And we still have a lonnnng way to go, lol... Any ideas!? Id love to hear what you guys think... how do you feel about Vinyls? Cute? Cheesy?
(click photo to enlarge)


#1: CreativeWalls: Cherry Blossoms... Im LOVING these... maybe in the kitchen? That could be cute :)
#2: ExpressingYou: Damask Monogram... I think a nice big "Z" could be cool in the bedroom...
#3: Xpresivdesigns: I like the idea of this James Dean Quote in the "holly wood bathroom"
#4: GreyWoldGraphics: Sewing Border... TOTALLY would be adorable in the sewing office above the window :)
#5: Beepart: Swallows.... Im like 90% sure these are a must have above the fireplace.... We bought a metal anchor, and i think it would be cool in between them...
#6: BubbaAndDoodle: awe... we NEEED these for the boys room for sure!
#7: BeePart: Sugar Skull... have NO idea where this would go, but I LOVE it...
#8: FreckledHound: Pirate LIfe... think this one would be SUPER cute in the boys' pirate room :)
#9: VerdigrisDye: Buttons.... Im also 90% sure that I need these in the office to go with my "stoopidgerl" prints.
