CLOSED: Petit Couture (+ Giveaway)

What do you get when you come across 2 Mommies, with similar interests, a keen fashion inclination and a drive to bring their creative ideas to life?

Here's what you will get..... Petit Couture! A 'Mom Made That' clothing brand that only carries modern, artisan, luxury basics collections for fashionable offsprings and their Mamas.

Unlike regular Mommy-Baby brands that showcase regular baby wear, Petit Couture is an exclusive clothing brand that proudly carries exquisite products that are created with a twist.
A little bling here and a little glitz there and voila, you will have baby one-piece that looks like this.....

Made completely in the US of A, this Signature Layette is

• 100% interlock cotton (yes, its soft and once washed will be softer. Frankly in the end, when it comes to my little ones, as long as the material's cotton and ultra comfortable...then I'm sold!)
• Fashioned with signature grosgain ribbon embellishment and
• Rhinestones (can you see those 3 little studs near the label? Oooh-la-la!)

This is available in these sizes : 3-6 mos, 6-12 mos, 12-18 mos and 18-24 mos.

I'm not a 'bling' kind of person, out of preference, so this was a first for me. I'm sure my little Bunny Boo will 'sparkle away' in this unique piece!


*You can find Petit Couture products online or in these stores.*


Buy it:

A Signature Layette similar to Bunny Boo's can be bought for 30 US$ and if you order immediately you will get FREE SHIPPING (till March 1, 2010) when you use the code 'FREESHIPPING1' during checkout.


Win it:

CLOSED: My Embroidered Gifts (Baby R&G)

Nine years ago, Debra Killen decided to make her love for unique, personalized baby gifts a productive outlet to provide Mommies and Daddies around the United States with a baby gift that would be remembered for a lifetime. My Embroidered Gifts is that productive outlet and honestly I wish I had access to this site when Bunny girl was born.

The variety of priceless gifts you can get for your little one are exquisite and made even more special with the personalization. Okay I admit I have seen personalized teddies and personalized baby apparel but some of these are firsts for me....




Debra even has personalized sibling gifts, personalized parent/grandparent gifts and personalized birth plates.

We were sent a beautiful embroidered Securesnugs blanket for Bunny Boo. I will treasure this always as this is our first special something for Bunny Boo and has our baby's name beautifully embroidered near the yellow satin ribbon border.

This 26 x 30" Securesnugs is a beautiful gift for any newborn as the quality of the blanket is supreme. I can't begin to describe how soft and velvety it feels on the skin....like fluffy silk...but silkier!

The blanket even has a tiny soft rattle attached to one end. I checked the rattle with my 'tug-pull test' and it passed the test...no fibers came off the fabric rattle, making it safe for our little one to grasp.

Yes, personalized gifts do cost more than a regular gift and perhaps can't be a regular habit for everyone. I do feel it's special to get your baby atleast one personalized gift. It might be a little pricey but remember you're paying for something that will be treasured for a lifetime...and that makes it totally worth the price!


Buy it:

The Securesnugs blanket we received can be personalized at no additional cost and can be purchased for 39.95 US$. Shipping costs as additional 5.95 US$ to any part of the US.
