Father's Day

Each year as Father's Day starts approaching I start thinking about the perfect gift for My Dad and my Husband as it takes me awhile to come up with the perfect gift for two wonderful Father's! I start thinking of things that each of them may like.... My husband may like a round of golf, a new golf shirt, new shoes, or maybe workout clothes. My dad may like a new shirt, a sun hat, a new pair of sandals, or maybe some new cologne?

I will say I always try to do something special and personalized for my husband and my dad. For my husband I sometimes print a picture of our two boys, make a picture book, or this year I am thinking a photo card. I try to do the same for my dad as well.

I have recently been browsing the web and I have found a wonderful site that has awesome personalized cards,Treat . These cards that treat has to offer are so much more than the greeting card you will find at Wal-Mart, they are so much more personal! Not only does Treat have awesome personalized greeting cards and  birthday cards but it also has a service that will allow you to not miss that special someone's birthday or a special holiday. The father's day cards  they have to offer are so cute and I will definitely be getting two for My Husband and My Father, the perfect greeting cards for two special fathers in my life!

What are you getting the special Father's in your life for Father's Day?

Giveaway for little boys! KBP Designs

So glad you stopped by I have a wonderful giveaway going on right here right now! Make sure to take the time to visit this adorable ETSY shop, KPB Designs  and enter my giveaway!

If you are looking for something adorable, you are in the right place…You often hear that necessity is the mother of invention. In my case, that’s definitely true. My name is Kristina and I am a designer of high quality handmade items for little ones. I started making little boy clothing and accessories several years ago when my son was born. Looking around, the market was saturated with things for little girls, but there were few choices for baby boys. What was available was not what I would consider quality.

So, I got busy.I made a few things for my son Mason; things like Daddy would wear, but all his own. That’s the challenge; I love to create. Sewing is my favorite thing to do, and something I have done since I was very young. The best part is to make something that stands out, something that is unique and wonderful. As a designer I take pride in creating things that are a cut above basic, something you will cherish as much as I do.

Browse through the shop and take a look at the ties, diaper covers and vests I have available. Custom work is always a possibility too; I can create a memorable baby blessing outfit or other item, just ask. Watch for more items to come; my inspiration and creative energy are endless. Thank you for taking the time to look around; it is my hope that KBP Designs will become your home for the adorable things you want for the little ones in your life.

Kristina Perry, designer

KPB Designs sent me some adorable items for Brody and Hudson. As mothers of boys it is hard to sometimes find the cute stuff, but I will say KBP Designs definitely has it! I was sent 3 adorable diaper covers for Hudson that look so cute and I can't wait for him to wear them this spring and summer with a cute onesie! She also sent over a very handsome bow tie and suspender set for Brody, whom is under the weather and didn't feel like modeling them at the time. Take a look for yourself just how cute they are!

Who wants to win a super cute set for your little boy, nephew, or friend's little boy? You have the chance to win  a Monkey cake smash boxer set! Boxer Shorts- 24 months Bow Tie-Medium ( age  2-5 years) Suspenders-Small (24-36 months)
