palooza day #9 {cutie patooties}


I have always loved painted ceramics - I just find painted ceramics so fun and cheerful! :) So, when I came across Cutie Patooties, I knew I had to share the shop with you all! Theresa, the shop owner, makes some of the cutest things! {and, yes... the majority of her items are personalized} :)

The plates - oh my! - I love them!!



And, you know I love the crosses! How great would this be in your little one's room?

Got a sports fan to buy for this Christmas? How about one of Theresa's super cute pendant necklaces?! (not all are sports related: so check them all out!) ....they are all just $18 - great deal.


Now - let's talk teacher gifts. They can be hard. You want them to be special, but not "cheesy" (know what I mean?). Well, let me suggest this platter. Personalized with everyone in the class!
(15 faces are included in the price - but add only $1.50 more for additional)


Just an FYI:
If you want your Cutie Patooties order to arrive by Christmas, you must purchase by November 30th.

So, what do you like best from Cutie Patooties?

P.S. Made a purchase? Well - you just scored some bonus points! Click here for the details.

palooza day #8 {thirtyone designs}


Okay. It's November 8th - sure...Christmas is more than a month away, but things can get pretty hectic as we get closer & closer to Dec. 25th. So, why not get your Christmas cards all set now?!
That's were Thirtyone Designs comes in!

Fern, the shop owner/designer, creates custom photo cards for all occasions! I just love her work - crisp. clean. gorgeous.

Want to know how it all works? It's easy peasy:

1. choose/purchase the design you like
2. email Fern the picture(s) & text you'd like for the card {or any other 'tweaks' you'd like - black/white, sepia, etc.}
3. Fern emails you back a proof
4. Fern emails you the final, high-resolution file (.jpg)
5. simply have your cards printed at any photo developer (Walgreens, SnapFish, Walmart, etc.)


And, just think about this:
How many photo-cards do you get in the mail from friends/family during Christmas time each year? We get a lot. And...how many of those tend to be the same design as another card you've already gotten from someone else? Yep. Many. {you know, probably a design from Walgreens or something?}

Your family could have a unique design. No one else will have it. (unless you have friends/family who are as awesome as you & also order from Thirtyone) So, order yours from Thirtyone!


And - I can not forget to inform you about the absolutely amazing SALE that is going on right now @ Thirtyone Designs!

All designs are currently only $9.99!!

I mean, come on! That price is ridiculous! Ridiculously cheap!
{so buy now - before that sale is over!}

also... check out Fern's {super cool} blog!
...and follower her on twitter while your at it too.


I know what you're thinking - "giveaway?" Oh yeah!


Fern is giving away any 1 custom holiday photo design to 1 {very} winner!
