Have I ever mentioned that I love MamaLuxe Editions?? And jewelry? And better yet personalized jewelry??

What a meaningful and special way to show your love for your children, your family, yourself; beautiful custom made jewelry!

Guest Editor Tanya M. has this to say about Becoming Jewelry:

“…even the packaging was beautiful, inside the bag was the most delicate silver chain with a round silver “C” charm and next to it an adorable little gem stone of yellow topaz. The “C” is for my son Caleb born in November, hence the yellow topaz birthstone. It is such a meaningful piece of jewelry! Since I received my Becoming Jewelry, I wear my sweet necklace both to work when I need to dress up and look professional and also when I’m in my jeans and a t-shirt. Either way I love it! If your are a friend, sister, mother, or hubby this is a must gift for a first time mom or a mom of many. She will cherish it forever as will I.”

Not looking for something personalized with names or initials; how about showing off your inner strength instead. Your Faith, your Love, inspire or peace, so many ways to wear strong feelings and beautiful messages.

From charm necklaces, earrings, and bracelets to a special little necklace for children; you can find a piece of simply precious, custom hand crafted jewelry from Becoming Jewelry for whatever you need it for…birthdays, {how fabulous would this be for a Mother’s Day gift}, Christmas, or do you have a little girl heading to Kindergarten for the first time, give her a timeless gift, an initial children’s necklace like the one below!

Becoming Jewelry is offering this fabulous giveaway to our BabyLuxe readers; an “On the Day You Were Born” necklace!!  To be eligible, just comment back to us on what you love about their beautiful site & jewelry by August 25th. Good luck!

It is my absolute pleasure to promote and feature this brilliant shop as we all know and love the owner! Our beloved Babyluxe founder, Sarah Masci, is a busy little bee with not just Babyluxe but also a career, a family, a LIFE, and with Paperluxe Studio!

It seems like every time I turn around, there’s another shower to be thrown, more thank you cards to write, birthday parties to plan and attend; having a large family and extra large friend base makes for never a dull weekend! Paperluxe Studio has been a part of every special event in my life for the past few months, and every purchase made with Sarah has been custom made and super perfect! For example, instead of making out a zillion boring thank you cards or buying a birthday card for every gift given, {seriously, we’ve had 6 gifts and parties in the last 2 weeks and just received 2 more invites}…needless to say buying a card each time can get expensive, why not purchase Family Stationery from Paperluxe Studio. Write a little note to the gift recipient or a thank you for the housewarming/birthday/baby gift on beautiful note cards personalized for your family.

This precious stationery is my favorite!

{Thumbprint Vignette}

What Paperluxe Studio is best known for is its personalized stationery favors. For the next bridal or baby shower you host, why not give a favor that is practical and usable, yet gorgeous and chic! Sarah will work with you to design a favor that goes along with any theme you have {or pick a design from her ever growing portfolio}, for as many attendees you have. Each guest will receive a favor they will actually love! Trust me, soaps shaped like hearts or dinner mints wrapped in tulle are quite boring.

You can also be quite a hit at your child’s next birthday party too! Let Paperluxe Studio design your next party invitation! Don’t forget to get matching stationery for thank you cards! For older children, especially girls, give stationery favors. And what about giving a set of personalized note cards for gifts? How about teacher or nanny gifts, think Birthdays or Christmas…it’s right around the corner!

Endless designs, endless options, be creative with your next event! Get your invitations, your thank you cards, your favors all at one place!

Announcements too!

Want to see this beautiful stationery in person? TRY YOUR LUCK AT WINNING SOME! Comment back to us by August 21st what you love the most about Sarah’s business Paperluxe Studio…the favors, the invites, the thumbprint vignette {my favorite}, a specific design, etc…, for your chance to win a set of 24 personalized note cards. Good luck!

So we want to leave you with some shopping to do at Pure & Honest Kids!  Great sale going on now on Caden Lane and Serena & Lily for the entire month of August!  Go check it out!

Have a fabulous Wednesday!  We’ll be back tomorrow for a special 2 Day feature with yet another fantastic giveaway!

NineBlue’s eBook is exactly what you need to make Las Vegas a memorable experience for the entire family. Bring the kids, bring the grandparents, there’s something for everyone to partake in! From family friendly hotels and attractions, the best shows and dining for families {discounted or free meals for children}, and advice on how to get around the “Strip” with kids, it’s all there in the NineBlue Las Vegas Travel Guide. With this guide at your hands, you’ll be sure to stay clear of any inappropriate activity and events.

Let me share two points of view for you on Las Vegas for families and whether or not this guide can help. Coming from me, someone who has never traveled to Las Vegas before, I can honestly say I never considered bringing my children there. I always thought it would be a 20th, 25th, so on, anniversary trip for my husband and I once the kids were older and gone. But as I read through this guide, I realized that a trip to Las Vegas with the kids would be like any other trip with the kids. Wherever you go with children, rules must be followed to ensure safety, cultures are always different and need to be respected, and negative areas and influence are always around. As long as you and your family are aware of your surroundings and plan accordingly, any trip can be a memorable one! NineBlue does a very thorough job acting basically as your family friendly travel agent, in paper form. Over 70 pages dedicated to giving you the insight to all Las Vegas has to offer; it’s not all gambling and adult venues like I always thought it was. There’s museums, circuses, aquariums, arcades, and cinemas. Fabulous hotels with child care services and child friendly activities. Way not eat at the Cheesecake Factory, what kid doesn’t love a big old piece of Oreo Cheesecake while on vacation!

Our friend Jennifer gives us another point of view as someone who has traveled there will her children just recently: “I have been to Vegas several times and I think this guide from NineBlue is great for families. I know there are plenty of things for families to do there but no one seems to know about them. Everybody thinks that Vegas is only for adults. That was the case in previous years when we were growing up. But now the hotels are awesome for everyone! I have taken my kids every time we’ve gone in the last several years. And I would definitely recommend this travel guide!”

Sample this guide yourself on the NineBlue website. Let them assist you in everything from packing to eating, from where to stay to where to play {with the kids that is!}

NineBlue offers family travel guides for destinations all over the world! Pick up a copy for your next vacation, maybe Vegas?!

Bet you didn’t know that one of your all time favorite toy stores had a Back To School section? And a very trendy, “cool” Back To School section at that! Oompa Toys has the best wooden toy selection AND, also, backpacks, lunch bags, art supplies, pencil cases, desks, etc… We received the, from what my son exclaimed with glee, “Bestest Bag Ever”; the Allerhand Ergo Mini backpack {pictured below}, which has not left my son’s back since it arrived! Take your pick from all the great brands, Allerhand, Crocodile Creek, Sigikid, Dante Beatrix, and more.

To go along with the perfect backpack, the perfect lunch bag of course! And again, Oompa Toys has plenty to choose from. The Fleurville Kid’s Lunch Pack was our pick for this year’s lunch bag; this specific lunch bag can either be thrown in a backpack OR worn as a backpack itself. This will definitely be used outside of school…I think camping this Fall! I may just get one to take to the office with me, it’s so spacious!

Already bought your child’s back pack and lunch bag? Trust me, you can find something else they need for back to school at Oompa Toys. If your child is going to Kindergarten or Preschool, how about adding a “school” touch to the play room with a new desk or art supplies for when they are home? They will need somewhere to do their “homework” right?

Okay fine, so you just have babies at home, stick with the TOYS! Toys, toys, and more fantastic toys!

The best part of Oompa Toys, this fabulous giveaway!! Winners pick of a backpack/lunch bag combo! Just comment back to us which backpack and lunch bag you would pick {and feel free to let us know what else you love on their site} by August 18th. Good luck!

Seth and Mark, designers of the Belle Baby Carriers, converted their knowledge of rock climbing safety gear into a safe, functional, modern designed carrier. Made of 100% organic cotton and hemp material, environmentally friendly dyes, Environmental Resin waist belt ring pad, and recyclable packing; this product is making headlines all over the country! It has personally made our 10 week old happy as a clam! I never have to worry about him fussing in public again! He falls right to sleep in his Belle Baby Carrier! It’s comfortable for him and me, beyond comfortable for him I would say since NOTHING puts him to sleep like this carrier!

The comfort of this carrier is simple, it distributes baby’s weight to your hips instead of your back and shoulders. For a younger infant, the waist belt can be adjusted to carry baby lower, a perfect sleeping position for them. As baby grows and can hold his head up, this carrier is also made for the forward facing position. And a “luxe” favorite: chic and hip designs and colors! Including two new Fall styles, Cherry Deco and Organic Denim.

Try one for yourself or buy one for a gift! Babyluxe readers take 20% off their purchase of a Belle Baby Carrier with the code mommies.

So extremely happy to receive the Bebe Belay, the most versatile baby accessory on the market! We use ours as the ever so important paci holder, clipped right to our ever so important swaddle blanket, both needed if we ever want to sleep again! The multi functional design of Bebe Belay grows with your child and your family. Start using it like we do, as a pacifier holder. Once paci is gone, throw it in your purse to use at the restaurant for a perfect instant bib. Once baby starts to acquire all those must have shoes, and gloves, and slippers, anything that comes in a pair, use Bebe Belay as a connector clip to keep the 2 items together.

Consumers of Bebe Belay have come up with plenty of uses for this fabulous little product in addition to the above, it has also been used to clip baby’s hat to his shirt so it does not blow away in the wind; also to clip the top and bottom of a bathing suit over the shower rod to dry. I have also used mine to clip and hang a plush rattle from Aidan’s car seat handle and activity mat for more eye stimulation for him, as he gets bored easily with his other hanging toys. So many uses out of one small item, how perfect is that!

It’s adjustable, sturdy, versatile, fashionable, and affordable, What more could you ask for! How about a giveaway!!
April, owner and creator of Bebe Belay, has been extremely generous to offer a giveaway of 3 Bebe Belays! Check out her site and let us know 2 things: the color design you would pick if you win one AND, be creative, come up with another use for the Bebe Belay, what would you use it for. Contest ends August 14th.
