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.

Giveaway Day! MEandREEKIE Skull Booties size newborn - 3t!
This weeks giveaway totally blew my mind. And, im SO sorry that it took me so long to get it going... its just been so crazy around here as you all know. BUT I hope you can all forgive me when you see this giveaway!!!
This week, we had the privilege of trying out a pair of black & white skull Booties from MEandREEKIE.
When I saw them in her shop, i thought they were quite possibly the cutest things i had ever seen. And at the time, her new little shop only had 19 sales!! I knew I could help to change that, and here we are. She graciously sent me the most amazing pair of shoes my boys have ever owned. The photos do not even do them justice. I opened up my package and honestly just couldn't believe it. The quality is by far some of the best I have seen on etsy... the materials? Top of the line... Every detail is perfection... "Boots have black cotton duckcloth on the outside (denimlike weight), soft, fuzzy, ivory fleece on the inside, next to the babies skin. Skull and crossbone ultrasuede applique are cut and sewn by me! Elastic in the back, around the ankle and a snap closure. Bottom is made of ultrasuede (ivory for smaller sizes, black for those over walking age). All seams are enclosed in bias tape to ensure the utmost comfort of your babies tootsies! These booties will not fall off! Guaranteed to last through your next child as well :) Available sizes, Newborn, 6, 9, 12, 18, 24 months, and 2-3 years" When she mentions the "fleece" inside i really think its an understatement... to me its like a Minky Lambie... it is soft like butter... so squishy... so warm... and totally baby approved. How do I know? Because ever since they came in... zavery spends about 3/4 of his time wearing them.
The other night was a TOTAL meltdown because I took them off to change his diaper and put on jammies... footie Jammies... well he wasn't having ANY of that, and made me put the booties ON TOP of the footies... can you believe it? Its a true story. I couldn't help but laugh and think.. i totally have to mention this in the review, lol.
Not into the black and white skull booties? (is that possible? lol) Have no fear... there are SO many other options in her shop...
First off, the girlie version.... Pink with a gray skull.... ADORABLE!
You can create your own... Gray denim w/ your choice of fleece... "FLEECE CHOICES - please specify when ordering:
white, ivory, light yellow, bright yellow, light blue, aqua blue, navy blue, bright pink, tangerine, burnt orange, red, lime green, olive green, forest green, lavender, grape, burgundy, eggplant, brown, black."
And my personal favorite (aside from the b&w skulls) Is the black with the red check/houndstooth..
I really recommend these 100% to anyone with a kid in the newborn to 3 range. Zaq has even been requesting a pair for himself... first thing he said... I wish i could have skull booties like that!! Maria? Christmas perhaps? lol could ya make that happen?
Well anyways - I know what you guys want... your prolly thinking... GET TO THE GOOD PART! WHAT CAN I WIN!? Well, one of you lucky readers get to pick your choice of one pair ofbooties valued from $19-$22. Be it skulls, or flowers... or something custom... its just for you :) And obviously, you choose your size as well. Could it get any better? No way... :)

Favorites Friday: Kawaii... aweeeeeee...
Many of you know my love for all things Japaneese Kawaii... and maybe even my plans to have an entire sleeve swirling and sparkling around Kawaii skulls... music notes... stars... my logo... and whatever other random things strike my fancy at the time... well, since Im not loaded and cant afford my amazing sleeve yet... it will have to wait... *unless one of you wants to make a giant $3000 order ;) * But, since im not holding my breath for that to happen... i gotta drool over these super Kawaii etsy shops.
With all the Kawaii Cuteness... I decided to do 12 items this week :) Click the photo to zoom in.
This weeks goodies:
#1: Needlings - I have ALWAYS been a big fan of this shop... and choosing JUST ONE to get the feature today was super super hard... but Cherry was the winner... I love her big eyes and hand stitched look.. and of course the heart :)
#2: SimbiosisbyJulia - This has ALWAYS been one of my favorite Kawaii prints... favorite favorite... but i have NEVER EVER EVER seen it in black... Not only would i just LOVE to have this pouch... but not I have to track down the fabric too ;) P.s. for those interested, the pouch is on sale along with MANY of their other cute skull pouches! Some under $5!!
#3: RockerByeBaby - hey thats me! I love when my stuff pops up in a search and im like, YEAH! That rocks! This is the listing for the custom Japanese Gift basket... i LOVE making these... probably more than anything else... They are so happy & fun... This one is shown with a huge mix of minkies & the yellow elephant & skull print.
#4: Emandsprout - Kawaii sailor shirt? Totally love it.. its MORE than reasonably priced which i ALSO love... (kawaii can be expensive sometimes) and well, its just plain adorable... check out the rest of the shop for cute booties & more!
#5: Stoopidgerl - Yes... i love her... we know this. She has already graced a few of my Favorite Friday, but I can't help it... her store is so rad & versatile there is ALWAYS something that fits... and this necklace... i just stinkin love it... I dunno why, I would probably never wear it... but it would be PERFECT hanging from a keychain... or from my bulletin board to remind me that sometimes people suck, lol
#6 AppleNoggin - Speaking of Kim @ Stoopidgerl... I saw this shirt and instantly though of her... skeletons and candy are kinda her thing ;) Kim, you should prolly buy this ;)

#10: MissMercy - I just started playing Candy Land with the boys. Izzaw is working on his colors and its a great fun way to learn. I saw this and it made me giggle. Its a tiny Candy Land necklace that is ACTUALLY playable... it has little piecies that go with it... Hmm... toddler traveling entertainment? Or Choking hazard, lol Either way its insanely cute.
#11: MIZURYU My girl over @ Baby Boo Felt (and also a great buyer :) serisously makes some of the cutest felt food in the WHOOOOLE world... I know, I have some strawberries :) But these Cookies were too damn cute to not make this weeks list :)
