Wordless Wednesday – Sawyers Nursery Theme!

258 views

For weeks I’ve been talking about a specific nursery set for Sawyer. I technically already had a set but I was gender neutral and beige. The room I’ll be using cannot be painted or really decorated in anyway so it was going to leave the room really plain.

Problem?
I couldn’t talk hubby into it. It wasn’t a need and I was still in need of so many things. I got over my pouting and focused on the needs. I made a registry for my own use {which while being called tacky and presumptuous} was definitely useful. I was able to figure out everything I needed and wanted and put it together on one last. As I got things I was able to cross it off. Even if you’re like me and not receiving gifts I highly suggest the idea.

Then recently while gathering some nursery basics I saw my set was getting discontinued. When I asked about it I was told it wouldn’t be clearanced just not restocked as things were purchased. Of course I went into panic mode. I talked to hubby again and he still wasn’t on the same page as me. He didn’t see the point. The 9 piece set was $199 alone. The set did include the quilt, dust ruffle, 2 fitted sheets, diaper stacker, 3 piece wall art, and valance though.

So, what’s a girl to do?
I raided the house and listed a bunch on Craigslist. It’s amazing what you can accomplish when you put your mind to it. I was able to find the mobile clearanced at a different store for half price. I sold more then I needed and last Friday I was off to BRU and look what I cam home with!!!

I got the 9 piece bed bag (quilt, dust ruffle, 2 fitted sheets, diaper stacker, 3 piece wall art, and valance) a second valance, lamp, rug, and blanket! It was the last bag set, rug, and lamp! There were no mobile’s either! I’m so glad I didn’t wait any longer! I definitely don’t regret it either.

Best part? Even though the bag alone was $199 I bought all the pieces pictured plus a bunch of other stuff and through my close out 10% discount, the sale going on with the bedding sets, and coupons I only paid $260 for it all! Score!

Above: The Jungle collection is my favorite out of them all. It’s more boy then neutral for me but I think it’s adorable! I would love them to make a purple version of this for girls. We all love our little monkeys!

Below: If you want a pink room they have one too. I know if I had a girl pink would not be optional. I think this bright cheerful Butterfly Collection is so cute!

If you’re on the hunt for a blue nursery I love On-The-Move Collection! The sheet immediately catches my eye and I love that the lamp matches so nicely!

Right now they are only available onlinem but I hope they have at least samples in the stores. I’m a girl that likes to go out for items like this and would definitely want to see them in stores.

Don’t forget they have really reasonable shipping rates too!

Olive Kids Personalized Plates – Review & Giveaway!

3,923 views


You already know that I love love love Olive Kids! I’ve been a long time customer as well as a reviewer for them! Every product that I get from them just backs my feelings of quality and greatness each time. Olive kids are consistent on bringing you their best with every order.

Olive Kids has the most adorable patterns and they carry them over to all their products so when you fall in love with a print…and I promise you’ll fall in love! You’ll be able to get it in everything you can think of from bedding to clocks, floor pillows, plates, bags and more! They have pirates, mermaids, trucks, tea parties, dinosaurs, and more!

As Halloween was approaching I thought a great way to celebrate would be with the goolish Personalized Halloween Meal Plate by Olive Kids. It comes with a matching placemat that is laminated. Both pieces are durable and will last you forever. It amazes me at how fast they can turn around their personalized product and get it in your hands! The first time I ordered from Olive Kids I ordered several personalized pieces just days before Christmas. I had accepted the fact I wouldn’t get them in time but sure enough they did! Christmas Eve delivery!

I love how when you place the plate over the placemat the picture lines up nicely. Gavin loves using it to learn how to spell words such as ‘Halloween’ and ‘scary’. I love them because they keep him sitting forward and paying attention to his meal. I got the Out Of This World Personalized Plate about a year ago and I wanted to show you an up close picture of the plates condition now:

As you can see the plate is in great condition. This is always my first go to plate because of its good size. I love that I can cut directly on the plate as well. Many plates I’ve purchased for Gavin can’t be cut on making them difficult for regular use. One the design starts lifting it goes straight to the trash. The Olive Kids design is made within the plate and that means it can’t be lifted. Doesn’t matter how much you cut on it- it’s not going to ruin the plate. I love that I can toss it in the microwave and dishwasher as well!
