Oh Boy! Oh Boy! Oh Boy Threads!! *giveaway*

I cut... I sew... I paint and write poetry... juggle babies... and obsess over the internet...
but when it comes to screen printing... Im at a loss...
I have come up with some great ideas, but never try it...
why? Because shops like Oh Boy Threads would make me look bad!
Their stuff is fantastic...
And my absolute favorite... their skull onesie.
http://www.OhBoyThreads.etsy.com
Stolen from their page because they said it best:
"Our organic infant & toddler tees are 100% certified organic cotton so they're naturally earth-friendly and buttery soft.Your little ones deserve only the best against their delicate skin. With a large rib neck for easy on/off, you'll enjoy the convenience of these tees too."
When she says buttery soft, its no joke...
I didn't realize how amazing Organic cotton is.
But its good for the earth, and the softest you can get...
I want a skullie t in mommy size :)
Plus, they wear and wash amazingly...
I tossed it in the machine in cold water
(Using my environmentally friendly laundry soap... YAY!)
Threw it on a hanger to dry
(and save electricity, because Im becoming a hippie)
and there ya have it... clean baby shirt :)
So like I said... Oh Boy Threads would make me look bad...
When I paint on t's or onesies... its very basic.
Stencil, paint & paintbrush... ta-da!!
But noooo... Oh Boy Threads has to show me up...
better than anything I could ever do...
Their skullie onesie has 2 layers...
rows and rows of skulls from top to bottom...
and then one big skull and bones over top.
In WHITE none the less!
How do they do it!?
I dunno... but lets leave it to the pros...
cuz whatever they do.. however they do it...
they do it perfectly.
I mean... look...
how cute is this shirt on this little man...

Adorable!
So adorable I bet you want one too...

Another Review! A lifesaver... FREE LEG WARMERS FROM KNOTTY BABY WEAR!

Hey all!
Thanks for always coming back to check us out.
I have the best readers ever!
Now that the sappy part is over, its time for the fun stuff!

KNOTTY BABY WEAR!
www.knottybabywear.etsy.com

So, were working on potty training with izzaq...
every mommy... and yes, daddy's too...
know that its a challenge.
So you gotta find the easiest way possible...
When I was little, we ran around naked...
with a potty in the middle of the room...
it worked! So thats what we do with Izzaq...
But he has to be naked... if he is wearing pants, he has an accident.
Well, we live in Minnesota... and it doesnt matter how high the heat is cranked.
Those hard wood floors and the leather couch is always chilly.
These leg warmers were the absolute perfect solution.
They allow for izzaq to be mostly naked, with his "bits" to be exposed, haha
So, no wrestling off pants or underwear...
he's just always ready whenever he needs to go.
And best of ll, he doesnt need my help!!!
See!?!?

Most importantly, they keep him warm...
Theyre even great for Zavery too!

He loves to sit on the floor and watch tv...
They love the be naked...
and these leg warmers keep them pants less and happy...
They even work on arms to go under short sleeves!
Girls, boys... toddlers, infants, or as knee socks for a little lady under a skirt or tutu!
Everyone needs a pair of these...
and Knotty Baby Wear as given us a pair for you too!
Basic black and white skulls...
girls, boys... and unisex for the bun in the oven!


So thats it... you gotta have a pair... try to win them...
and if you dont, go buy em... $8 and she even has a ton on sale for just $6
they're so cheap... and SOOOOO worth every penny...
Everyone has that in their budget... I have 3 pairs! haha

Check out her shop...
www.KnottyBabyWear.etsy.com
She has more that just the leg warmers.
Recently she started making these ADORABLE t's and onesies...
with skull and crossbones appliques...
Crazy wild prints, bright colors... just amazing...

Leave us a comment about your favorite Item from her shop...
and why you need/want these leg warmers.
and don't forget your email address!

*Bonus Round... Get an extra entry in the contest by blogging or posting about this review!

SO CAL BABY WINNER!!! MICHELLE DREW!!

With her lovely comment...

The clothing and hats that they have in their store are just so awesome! I will definatly be getting some stuff for my son in the future. They also have these family stickers that are so cute. They are one of kind punk rock families so, instead of those seen everywhere flip flops and stick figures. The prices are so much better than Hot Topic, No Fear and all those other stores, plus when I tell my boyfriend how much I spent (or will spend) I can show him that I got a deal...as opposed to showing him one onesie that I spend $30.00 on.


Love it! Michelle, Ill be sending you an email to get your address!!

THANKS SO MUCH!

and be sure to send us some pictures when you get your shirt!!!

SoCalBaby... Champagne taste on a beer budget

http://www.socalbabyshop.etsy.com
So Cal Baby...
Ive been eyeing this shop for some time now...
and I am SO beyond happy that I got a chance to do this review.
Their shirts were COMPLETELY beyond my expectations...
Im not sure if its "apropriate" to say... but hey, were a punk rock blog...
they are TOTALLY a champagne taste on a beer budget.
When I got my shirt I was blown away.
I would NOT have guessed that they were handmade.
The quality is outstanding...
Just amazing... like something you would buy out of any random store.
So professional... high quality screening, high quality shirts.
And they are cheap!
Tees and onesies range only $12-$14
Go to hot topic and TRY to find something similar and your gunna spend $20-$25...
its gunna be crappy quality... and just like every other "punk rock" baby out there...
be punk rock... buy DIY! haha...

SO yeah, Im in love with So Cal baby... madly in love...
Can I give you a peek of my FAVORITE thing in the shop!?
And I dont even have a baby girl... but, i want it...


SOOOOOOOOOO CUTEEEEEEEEEEE
And its just $14... Yeah, thats a steal...
Now, my punk rock mom trick to you...
I buy tshirts... i buy EVERYTHING in tshirts...
a size 12 months tshirt, will last you about 2 years
a size 12 months onesie last about 6 months because they grow so long so quickly.
This one though, I wouldn't care, it will be mine someday, haha
Speaking of which...
another great perk of So Cal Baby is that ALMOST all of their onesies...
are available as t-shirts... thats HUGE for me.
Slowly but surely Ill stock up on the So Cal baby shirts.
Have a new one for every day of the week... times 2 for my baby boys. :)
They have the best of everything...
Classic Cadillac t's. I love Daddy's tattoos... Zaq's favorite, the Day of the Dead Sugar skull t...
and MY personal favorite... "All mommy wanted was a backrub"
Yep... not thats a classic :)
Check them out, you'll love them.
I promise... spend a few bucks... her shop is TOTALLY worth it.
But, if the wallets full of cob webs... send her shop a heart...
leave us a comment here at the blog...
and be entered to win a shirt of your own.
She has been generous enough to send us 2 shirts.
One for the boys to test out (that you will see tomorrow)
and one for you!
The winner gets this AWESOME Cadillac tshirt, its a size 2t.

Good sized too, I would put money on it fitting a 3 year old even...
so give it a go.... or give it as a gift... keep it for the future...
whatever your little heart desires...
tell us about your favorite thing/things in her shop and DONT FORGET to leave your email!!
Thanks!!
