The Ultimate Free Holiday Printables List

November 23, 2011 By Gypsy Leave a Comment

Along the lines with my previous post of free printables to create a household notebook, I have decided to make a list of printables for the holidays. Now, I do hope most everyone has already got everything ready to go for the holidays, but if not, these free downloads are great for keeping things frugal this season and for those waiting until the last minute!

I also got this idea from Lisa over at Moxie Blog which has a 3 sets of holiday printables up for download. This is a beautiful matching set that I came across a few weeks ago and plan to use myself. Lisa has a set of holiday cards & gift tags, pillow box and a pyramid box! You can find each of these linked in the sidebar of the blog at The Moxie Pear.

Probably my favorite free printables of this season has got to be the Holiday Recipe Card Collection from my favorite scrapbooking resource, Shabby Princess. This set includes 14 recipe cards, cover pages, printable card box, and extra word art. This would be an awesome gift or stocking stuffer for the bakers/cooks in your life!

Living Locurto has quite a mix of holiday printables ranging from Sandwich Bag Toppers and Christmas CD Cover (for those Christmas “Mixtape” Gifts) to gift tags and thank you cards for all those gifts received this year.

Another great tag set here, from Babalisme are these Reindeer tags. Then there is a set of Photo Holiday Cards from Creature Comforts Blog. These From Santa’s Orchards, Printable Stickers, from Giver’s Log, are a great way to label “produce from the North Pole” for those stocking stuffers.

Last but not least, another thank you card and set of tags from Hannah over at Sherbet Blossom.

I hope that this list will help you in your quest for finishing those holiday tasks without emptying your pockets!

Updated: I was notified of a few more links that I wanted to share with everyone as I want to make sure there is something for everyone’s needs/wants on this list.

McKinley Rose Boutique Custom Knitted Hats

November 12, 2011 By Gypsy Leave a Comment

McKinley Rose Boutique is a handmade shop by Lisa Borders. There’s a selection of items such as tutus, tutu dresses, bows + hair clips, knitted + crocheted hats, blankets + diaper covers.

I actually won the Bear Hat that my little girl is wearing. We chose to have the ears light pink rather than a light brown (as shown in her facebook page photos) for the additional girly look. My son was very specific about what he wanted. We had viewed photos of some of the previous hats that Lisa had made. He said he didn’t want those but wanted a red dinosaur hat with spikes. So we sent over an email asking if she did custom orders and to explain what we were looking for. Lisa was excited to give it a go. She is very easy to work with in helping to choose colors and sizing.

These came just in time as the chill has hit here just recently. Both my kidlets love their hats! They are very well made and the sizing was perfect. My daughter still says “aww!” every time we pull it out for her to wear before going outdoors. And my son seems to be planning his next creation, “it needs a tail now…”!

10% of all sales from McKinley Rose Boutique is donated to SHARE. “The mission of Share Pregnancy and Infant Loss Support, Inc. is to serve those whose lives are touched by tragic death of a baby through early pregnancy loss, stillbirth or in the first few months of life.”

From McKinley Rose Boutique:
On December 5, 2009 sweet Mckinley Rose was born. I had the honor of photographing her for her newborn session and instantly fell in love! This girl snuggled into my arms and I didn’t want to put her down! Such a beautiful baby and so content throughout her entire session!

On March 24, 2010 I found out from my former photography partner that McKinley Rose had passed away. She has a very special place in my heart. I talked to her mama late 2010 and asked if I could open a shop and give it McKinley’s beautiful name. She agreed!

So, here we are now and I have to tell you it is a blessing to be able to do this! 10% of all sales will be donated to SHARE { http://www.nationalshare.org } in memory of McKinley! Thank you for helping to keep her memory alive and for your contribution towards helping other families facing such a loss.

Visit McKinley Rose Boutique on Facebook + view her works in the photo albums. Stay tuned for a hairbow giveaway from McKinley Rose Boutique that we’ll be hosting soon!

EdenFantasys: Lockable Toy Storage Case

November 12, 2011 By Gypsy Leave a Comment

Disclaimer: This is a review of an Adult Product / Website.If you wish to proceed, click Read More.If not, please scroll down to view the next review and/or giveaway. Thanks!

Recently, I’ve been becoming a great fan of EdenFantasys online shop. Last week, I made a purchase of a few items including this lockable sex toy case.

Having two children + two dogs, friends + family that visit very often, I’ve always had that gut feeling that something would accidentally be left out in view (even when in “storage” like a plastic container that’s usually see-through). So I jumped at the idea of getting a storage container just for my goodies.

This case was my favorite of them all just by size + looks alone. When out in the open, you’d never guess what the contents inside would be. With a combination lock, I don’t worry about any nosey’s getting a peek at any of the sex toys that I have. The toy case can hold items up to 12 inches in length, seems pretty sturdy (didn’t dent or pop open when I happened to drop it) and best of all, fits in well with just about any decor if you just choose to leave it out.

Another perk, with every purchase through EdenFantasys, you can click on “Free Gift” in the header of the website to choose a free gift. Most of the time, I see tshirts, tote bag, toy cleaner cloths and sometimes even adult toys! You can also receive a free or discounted item for being a fan on facebook and signing up for their newsletter.

Kaitlyn’s Custom Travel Size Diaper Wipe Case

November 12, 2011 By Gypsy Leave a Comment

I have seen quite a lot of these diaper wipe cases popping up in small/home business shops across the web. I recently noticed them for the first time a few months back. I got the opportunity to review one for Kaitlyn’s Diaper Wipe Cases.

(Case my little man received.)

These are custom made + personalized for each order. I chose one for my son’s bag so he can take along with him for his overnight bag or day trips for quick clean up. Even though he’s 6, wipes are a life saver for after meals/snacks or outdoor play.

My son is fan of all things dinosaurs + robots. Just so happened, a robot fabric was currently in stock at the time of order. We received this case with a boyish look; bright colored robots + blue ribbon. The little man loves the look of it of course. It’s super cute in my opinion as well. We have carried this around through the house + for outings. It’s held up very well; no peeling/loosening of the fabric or ribbon to date.

Now here’s your chance to win a custom diaper wipe case for yourself. Winner will be contacted + can choose from fabrics that are currently in stock to have your case created just for you.

(Another sample of Kaitlyn’s travel size diaper case.)

Mutt Mad – Classy Bowtie for the Pups

November 11, 2011 By Gypsy 1 Comment

At the end of September, we got a Boxer pup for our family. Ryder is now a 5 month old male, fawn boxer with white markings + black face mask. He’s extremely kid friendly + has made an excellent addition to the household! About two weeks ago, we ended up with another boxer, Miss Daisy that is 8 weeks old now; she’s white with fawn colored ears. If you have a boxer, you know this breed grows fairly quickly.

We have already purchased two collars for Ryder. The first he out grew quickly so we had no choice but to upgrade. We were about to have to upgrade again, then the opportunity to review MuttMad’s Bow tie Collar + Bow tie Collar Cover came up!

From Mutt Mad: The dog bow tie collar is great for special events. And the dog bow tie collar covers are sleeves that you slip the collar into in order that the dog can still wear a collar but this makes the collar far more formal!

Black Dog Collar with Couture Bowtie
Ryder is sporting the dog collar with couture bow tie in black. The bow tie is attached to the collar very securely. Even when Ryder has pawed at it before getting use to it, it stayed put. I was worried he’d find a way to tear it off but he couldn’t. The collar is a simple clip for quick removal + ease of putting on. Ryder has plenty of room to grow into this collar as well!

Dog Bow Tie Collar Cover
Miss Daisy is showing off the dog bow tie collar cover in red. This was sized specially for Ryder who is quite larger than Miss Daisy is. However, I was able to easily slip Miss Daisy’s collar into the collar cover + clip her collar back on her. There is a little bit of bunching (excess fabric) while she wears this one, but I wanted to show you all how versatile this cover was. As simple as it is to put on, it’s just as quick to remove when needed to wash!

I would highly recommend Mutt Mad products for your dog. They were very customer service friendly, from help in sizing for the collars to quick shipping! Visit Mutt Mad, the dog lovers marketplace at http://muttmad.com or on Facebook for more dog accessories.
