Zutano review and giveaway! (CLOSED)

Welcome to an "Ultimate Bloggy Carnival" spring 2009 giveaway!!! Be sure to check out all the other amazing carnival giveaways right now!



It all started when a Uli and Michael Belenky had their first child. They saw the lack of life in children's clothing. They wanted to add something more to children's clothes and felt the right graphics and prints would do the job. This is when Zutano was started. Zutano has since grown and provides not only sensational graphics and designs, but uses the highest quality interlock cotton fabrics and natural fiber blends for the children's clothing.



I absolutely love the bright colors they use. Their clothes and styles fit adorably on children. My daughter has the Fuchsia/White Toddler Drawstring Pant and the Flower Time Short Sleeve Viola Top. It is such a comfortably fitting outfit and people have stopped several times to comment on how cute the outfit is. She has worn it several times. What makes Zutano even better is that many of their clothes are made to match each other. There are not only several other tops that will go great with the pant but many tops as well.

Even more impressive is the heart put into Zutano. Not only is heart put into their clothing, but into the environment and community. Zutano has helped support programs for children, reproductive rights to women, an end to childhood hunger, better health care programs, regional scholarship funds, breast feeding educational programs and clothing drives. Zutano has the greatest respect for women and their children and continues to practice the "Baby-to-Work" program, which allows new mom's to bring their baby to work for the first year.

To stay up to date with Zutano's updates, sales and fun new patterns, you can join their fan group on facebook.

The Giveaway: One winner will win a $75 shopping spree at Zutano.com

To enter: Go visit Zutano and Come back and tell some of your favorite items or prints.

Tiffany Giardina "No Average Angel" review!

Recently I was asked to be head of a review panel at The Classy Closet. If you haven't made your way over to The Classy Closet the time is now. This is a great place to meet other bloggers who have similar interest and a great place to find great parties. One thing new that we offer as panelist is video blogs. This is a little new to me, but I am sure as time goes on these videos will get a little better.

I am really excited to share with you this music artist. She has some great music out that both you and your children will love. I shared a little more info on my vlog (video) so take a peak. You will also be able to hear a bit of her music in the background.



You can also check out Tiffany's "No Average Angel" music video on YouTube.

This review was done with some of The Classy Closet review panel members and you can find more review links at The Classy Closet.

RkDsign Giveaway!!! (CLOSED)

Welcome to an "Ultimate Bloggy Carnival" spring 2009 giveaway!!! Be sure to check out all the other amazing carnival giveaways right now!

Being an artist myself I have great appreciation for the time and creativity an artist puts into their work. I easily fell in love with this artists work. She has such a unique style and each piece seems to tell a spark of youth and joy. Here are some of Rkdsign's cute and fun arts pieces.


When asked what inspires the artist, Rita, she says, "My daughter, she is my inspiration and of course my life". Rita has loved to draw since she was a little kid. She took several art classes in college and majored in Interior Design, which she earned her degree. Rkdsign88 is giving away this piece to one of our viewers.

In this giveaway our lucky winner will not win one, but two of Rita's prints. Their titles are "The Lake" and "My Crib".



"The Lake" is a 4x6 print of the original acrylic painting. The highest quality Epson heavyweight paper and archival ink was used. This picture is also signed and titled on the back.


"My Crib" is a 5x5 and is a print of an original in drawing colored digitally. The highest quality Epson heavyweight paper and archival ink was used. This picture is also signed and titled on the back.

To Enter: Visit Rkdsign and come back to leave a comment telling me one of your favorite pieces. (This is a MUST)
