Celebrate Mama event in Bethesda, MD

Tomorrow is the Celebrate Mama event in Bethesda, MD. This is a great event for "mamas of all ages and stages"! Vendors have something for everyone and there are children's performances like Rocknocerous, a ballet performance, storytelling, belly dancing, and more!

Last year, Little Pink Pansy was a vendor and had a great turnout. Unfortunately we weren't able to do it this year but we will probably be attending. It's a lot of fun and a great chance to support some other local businesses.

If you live outside of the metro DC area, check the Celebrate Mama website for a location near you.

Congrats to these two mompreneurs for getting their new site up!

Featured Product: Coveralls

Are your kids messy eaters, painters, etc.?

My daughter is the queen of un-clean.

Spaghetti is spread all over the face, hands, shirt, shorts, and anywhere else it can go. That's why I started using these fantastic coveralls. They snap on easily over clothes and can be fastened to wear either with individual legs or as a smock. She wears it every time she eats something messy. But we also use it for arts and crafts. This was a god-send when we were dyeing Easter eggs and when we painted mugs for the grandmas for Mother's Day. If only the floor in my house had fared as well as her clothes... They are also easy to clean - just wipe with a wet cloth for a small mess - toss it in the washing machine for a big mess. I honestly cannot say enough great things about this and my daughter loves it too! To see all styles and colors, click here.

SALE

Have you checked out our sale page? We currently have a few items on sale, including two fantastic diaper bags that are sturdy, have great pockets, and also come with a changing pad. The two remaining styles we have are a beautiful pink dragonfly and a scarlet palm tree. They can also be used as regular bags or purses and they are so pretty! They have been marked down 35% so now is the time to take advantage!! Check back often as sale items will change!

Featured Product: Summer Hats

I have a new product that is selling like wildfire! From the makers of the cute fleece winter ribbon hats comes a new summer hat.

These super cute bucket hats are simple yet sophisticated with a single jacquard ribbon. There are styles for both boys and girls with everything ranging from pirates, whales, lobsters, gators, palm trees, crabs, bees, milkshakes, flip flops, tennis racquets, and more! They come in 3 sizes: 0-9 months (which includes an elastic chin strap), 9-18 months, and 2-5 years. Err on the side of larger if you're not sure, maybe they'll get more than one year of use.

My daughter will not wear any of her other summer hats but she never leaves the house without this one. You will love it! And don't worry, the hats can be washed (after all, they were created by a mom). Click here to see all styles.

Featured Product - Lollipop Jeans

Spring is (finally) here!! What better way to boost your spring spirits than some fun new jeans for the little princess in your life? These jeans are so stylish and cute with the most adorable ribbon adornments. You will not be able to leave the house without a couple of compliments from strangers and friends. Pair this with a cute spring tee and one of our classic hairbows, and your little princess will be the talk of the town! They are available for girls in sizes 12 months - 5T.
