Upholstered Headboards

Well its time for one of those fun teaser posts from CSN. I want to start by talking about upholstered headboards - think elegance and luxury. When I go on vacation or to a hotel I just love the look and feel of the rooms and the atmosphere, the way the rooms are put together the feel of the elegant furniture and most of all the comfort and style.

Most of us think comfort and not luxury when shopping for a bed, but why not have both. CSN has a wide variety of different styles that will fit anyone's budget.

Have you been to bedroomfurniture.com lately (this is just one of over 200+ stores that CSN has to offer). They have a huge selection of upholstered headboards.

How beautiful are these two headboard I think Luxury, glamours, I think of something I would see in a magazine.

If your in the market for a new headboard or maybe your redoing your room head on over to CSN and check out one of there fabulous stores and maybe you can find everything you need in one spot. Happy shopping !

Great Giveaway Check it out

Our Friends over at Whimsy Couture are hosting a great giveaway this week. They are giving one of there readers an opportunity to get a great pair of Bella Nova Squeaky Shoes.

About Bella Nova Squeaky Shoes
Squeaky shoes have always been special to our family. My daughter Sarah was barely over a year old when someone left our front door open. As most parents know, this can cause unimaginable tragedy! Fortunately, Sarah was wearing her squeaky shoes. As I was preparing breakfast in the kitchen I suddenly noticed that her "squeaks" were growing faint. It immediately alerted me. I followed the sound to discover my daughter was about to hit the side walk of our busy corner street. Her "squeaks" that day may have saved her life.

A few months later Bella was born. Bella required physical therapy due to hypotonia, or "low tone", from the age of 4 months until she was almost two. When Bella finally began to pull up to a standing position, she was already 18 months old. Squeaky shoes gave her that reward and encouragement to take the first few steps and to keep trying. The sound of the "squeak" urged her to get back up after falling repeatedly. In just a month, she was able to build up enough strength to begin to walk on her own. Shortly after, she was released from physical therapy and today at 4 years old is just as capable as other children her age. Bella is my inspiration for Bella Nova Squeaky Shoes. We hope you find our squeaky shoes to be as fun and enjoyable as we do. My girls still wear them (although with the squeaks removed!), with designs so cute and funky they are impossible to give up!

How adorable are these shoes.....

I have to say that I absolutely love Squeaky shoes not only to keep track of your little run away for by for C it was because of her Hyotonia, I loved loved loved squeaky shoes. It is nice because they are so adorably cute but a great therapy tool. If you get a minute stitch on over to Whimsy Couture's blog and enter in a great giveaway they not only carry a line of girls shoes but boys as well.

Tickler Tags Product Review and Giveaway

I am excited to be able to share this product with you. As moms we wear so many hats from secretary, to cook, scheduler, doctor, taxi driver, and just being a busy mom, that sometimes we forget the littlest thing, REMINDERS. I have to say in my busy morning hustle and bustle, I always remember to pack the lunch, get the teeth brushed, back pack ready and all the other odds and ends that are needed to make the school day run smoothly, as I check my schedule for the day I itemize the priority list and check and recheck my calender so I can make sure I make the most out of the time in the day. The one thing I almost always forget to do is remind B what his schedule holds for the day. There are so many activities, achievements, high fives, hugs, appointments, and details that as moms we just want to be there for, but unfortunately we cant do everything. Nicole over at tickler tags has developed such a unique wonderful product that I can not rave about it enough.

Before you ask WHAT ARE TICKLER TAGS? here is a little history

Tickler Tags are a fun and easy to use reminder system that clips onto your child's backpack. They were designed by Nicole Budleskia mom herself that found it difficult and a bit more stressful to manage her daughters weekly schedule than she had anticipated. She found herself struggling to keep up with her daughters busy schedule and keeping track who was going to pick her up from school while trying to stay organized amidst the chaos.Thus, began Tickler Tags a fun innovative way to clip a Carabiner and multiple tags onto your child's back pack so they know what activities they have after school, or who is picking them up form school, to A simple word of encouragement .


What are Tickler Tags and How Do They Work?
Tickler Tags are interchangeable backpack reminder tags that parents attach to their child’s backpack each morning to remind them of the day’s after school activity and transportation arrangements. Tickler Tags are also used to communicate words of encouragement, positive feedback or to remind your little one of a task they might otherwise forget.
· Kids love them because they understand the day’s plan
· Parents love them because there’s no more confusion
· Teachers love them because they know the “official” after school arrangements

Tickler Tags are Designed to accommodate readers and non-readers alike, the simple and iconic images used within the design of these cards proved to be a local hit.




Tickler Tags are such an innovative and wonderful product, my 4 year old was so excited to pick out his own color Carabiner and we sat down together and chose our top favorite activities, means of transportation. He can read a little but the pictures are so unique to the task at hand, we received the Dad and Mom transportation cards and My son loved that the Daddy and Mommy card had different pictures which makes it easier for him to learn who is coming to get him that day. The Card are made of a durable plastic similar to a credit card, they are very durable and kid friendly. Each card has its one unique picture as well as a brief description for those children that can read, they were very easy to clip onto the carabiner and interchange for the days tasks. My son loved knowing what his daily schedule was without having to ask his friends were so excited and wanted there very own set.


Giveaway

Nicole has agreed to offer 1 lucky winner a choice of 5 standard tags (NO CUSTOM TAGS) and 1 Carabiner of your choice. Chose from a variety of Activities, Transporation Options, or a"Tickle Tag" for that little boost of encouragement. Tickler Tags were a great help in saving this mom and her children from the busy chaos of our lives. Thank you again Nicole for such a great product.
