Green Garmento {FREE SHIPPING & GIVEAWAY}

Thursday, March 11th, 2010

For those of you taking little steps to live your life a bit more green, I have a product for you today that will painlessly help you take another step in living green.  ;-)   Most of us use the dry cleaners regularly right?  So what if I told you a company has designed a eco friendly 3-in-1 reusable garment bag, interested?

Green Garmento has designed the perfect bag for dry cleaning.  This is how it works, at home you use it as your dry cleaning hamper.  When you are ready for your clothes to by cleaned, the hamper becomes your dry cleaning duffel or bag.  This same bag is given to your dry cleaner and they use it as your garment bag!  Isn’t that wonderful!  No swapping out piles of clothes from one hamper to a bag  then from plastic bags to the closet.

The Green Garmento  team believes in helping you live greener. Every year over 300 million pounds of single-use plastic dry cleaning bags are dumped into our landfills?* And that’s just in The United States. Plastic bags are rarely recycled, they don’t completely break down in landfills, they kill marine and wildlife and can cause choking accidents and sometimes death in infants and toddlers. If left on dry cleaned clothes, the plastic bags don’t “breathe” which can cause the chemicals to stay in your clothing which then leach into your skin.

 

The Green Garmento is like a reusable grocery tote for your clothes. Green Garmento Features, made from recyclable non-woven polypropylene, breathable & water-resistant, side zipper allows easy access to hanging garments, drawstring closure at bottom, sturdy loop fits over any hook for use as a hanging hamper, durable shoulder strap for convenient carrying as a duffel bag, reinforced handles for compressed carrying, wide gussets allow cleaned clothes to hang gently at all times, machine washable (short cycle – cold) and hang dries quickly, see-through front pocket for dry cleaning ticket or other customer ID,  recyclable & Reusable.  I was worried about my dry cleaners not using my bag or losing my clothes but with the see-through pocket you just put a copy of your dry cleaning ticket in the pocket.  No worries :-)   The bag is big enough to hold 10-12 garments and comes in bright colors making the bag very easy to spot!

We’ve really enjoyed our Green Garmento bag.  It is just so convenient.  We use recyclable grocery bags, why not dry cleaning bags.  Such an easy change!

Fantastic colors, my favorite is the burst of orange!  You can not miss that bag!

Two Blue Cars {GIVEAWAY}

Monday, March 8th, 2010

You need to only take a quick look at this site to know why I love it so!  ALL For BOYS…tees both short and long made for our rough and tough little fellas!  Sarah recently chatted about starting an “all boys club”, and this would be one of the companies to join us as mothers of boys world wide search high and low for those perfect boyish tees, perfect for any age {infants on up}, perfect for all seasons, and fitting for any itty bitty masculine personality!

Trucks and robots, bikes and good old fashion boomboxes….that’s what little boys are made of!  Sure they are sweet {but there’s no sugar and spice it’s more like dirt and fresh grass}, sure they are nice {but they are also loud and often bruised and bleeding from endless hours of non-stop rough-housing}…little boys are made to be strong and sturdy, with dinosaurs and helicopters as their mascots…and Two Blue Cars has the clothing line to bring out the pure boy in all our little men!

Of course  super cool girls will want to wear these tees too…and we can’t blame them for lovin’ the look!  Our sample was the short sleeve orange tee above for our 4 year old Connor.  I can not say enough about the color for starters!  Orange is in right?  I see it everywhere and on blue eyed little boys, it’s the most precious color in his wardrobe to date!  The classic, crisp designs are not overpowering…they are stating through simple, unique graphics  “I LOVE BIG TRUCKS”, “I LOVE DINOSAURS”…hear me roar!!!  Color after color, design after design, there is nothing better for a mother of boys than a favorite pair of blue jeans and the perfect tee on your baby {or big} boy. I hope you’ll agree, that perfect tee is here at Two Blue Cars!

These tees wash and dry very well, retaining the bright color with no fading on the image.  It’s not even Spring yet and we’ve gotten plenty of use out of ours!  Check out the tanks too…some {including my husband} are not fans of tank tops on little boys…I LOVE them, boys get just as hot as anyone else in the heat of the Summer, let those little arm pits breathe!!

Totes from Two Blue Cars too, gotta love it!  You know I adore a good tote {for me OR for the kids}, and if sporting one shows what an awesome and proud “Mother of Boys and only Boys” I am, I’m all over it!  For lunches, school bags, library books, beach gear, whatever your little man {or little lady, tomboy or not…} needs to carry around, these totes are perfect!  How about giving away TWO totes, winners pick??  Simple comment back to use which graphic and color you would pick.  Contest ends in one week, good luck to all!

EVERY DAY SHOULD BE LIKE SATURDAY… ahhhh who agrees with that?  I do, I really do!  In our house we LOVE Saturdays!  It means family time, personal time, leisure time… It’s March 4th, Spring is almost here.  Lets do some Spring shopping today just for us :-)   Do you want a new Spring bag? One you can use for everything, I mean everything, the pool, the gym, shopping, the kids swim gear, playground toys, hobbies, your book sunglasses and water bottle.

The Spring Collection Katie Boat Tote in Primrose and Indigo

Emilie Sloan believes everyday should be like Saturday, breakfast with friends, a trip to the farmers market, time for the gym. That’s the idea behind Emilie Sloan; stylish, durable, practical totes that bring a little Saturday into your everyday. Totes that are made to be used – featuring an exclusive COTTON LAMINATED fabric with a rainproof exterior that stays clean and dry when life gets messy.  Lets start by choosing a bag, here is one I received and love it.  The bag unhooks and opens up enormous!

Stasha Carry All Tote In Kiwi

I love the bags I’ve received, they are truly so versatile.  Anything I get on them wipes off with a wet cloth, Clorox wipe whatever.  The shoulder straps are long so you can be comfortable carrying your child and your bag and hold hands with your other child :-) The interior is huge, with a zipper pocket for essentials, there is a hook so you can easily hook a coinlet to your bag for super fast location of your keys, money and I.D.  The totes are light too. They bend and fold and can be stomped on by your 3 year old or drooled on by your baby. ;-)  Next,  grab your cell phone and put it in its own case you can hook to the inside of your bag! How convenient is that!

Spring Collection~ Ringlet

Every day should be like Saturday . . .Sometimes a little goes a long way! Take the bare essentials with you for a quick trip to the store or a casual evening out. Fully lined, with exterior pocket and clear card window, key ring and zipper closure.  You’ll need your money and I.D.  so don’t forget your coinlet, which can also hook inside your tote.  Don’t you love the spring fabrics!

Gracie Coinlets

Pack your own lunch, don’t nibble on the kids gold fish and juice box.  Use your own fabulous Gabrielle lunch tote.  How adorable, great size too.  No more recycling those thin paper bags when you’ve got the Gabrielle Lunch Tote. Skip the break room and have your lunch in the park. Just big enough to hold everything you need: your lunch, your keys, your wallet and your ipod; this stylish lunch tote is the perfect size.

Gabrielle Lunch Tote

Okay all I need now is a little something for my lip gloss, sunscreen and moisturizer for after the pool.  Perfect for holding all the little things in your tote and great for travel! The cosmetic bags are designed with our signature water-resistant cotton exterior for easy clean-up. Fully lined, with quality zipper and silver pull.  Now I am ready and so organized!

Momma Couture {DISCOUNT}

Tuesday, March 2nd, 2010

Large, flashy diaper bags are no more for me {or for anyone for that matter}…smaller totes that serve as a carry-all and a diaper bag all in one, or basic wristlet for quick trips out of the house, are what’s modern and what’s desired by busy moms these days!  We want something classy and crisp {not loud and bold}, something that is versatile and all encompassing, and something that looks fabulous on casual days walking the mall or more formal dinner nights out with the family…we have a company for you today that has “all the above”, and more!

8 + amazing features in one classic bag!   The first and foremost being the Momma Couture City Bag is FULLY INSULATED!  Sippies, bottles, and munchies no longer need a separate insulated bag on top of the diaper bag…just toss them in {there’s organizational compartments for them of course} and go!  The sample City Bag above that we received also comes with a matching wristlet, which I’ve said before…every momma needs a wristlet…for short durations away with or without the children!   A few other features to mention:

-Includes our unique zip-close wipes pocket which allows wipes to be carried directly in the bag while being kept moist
-Our see anything lining ensures easy cleaning, and hassle free when you need to find those necessary items
-Top zip-closure and 60” Adjustable strap
-Includes 3 internal elasticized pockets
-Key ring hook and external d-ring
-Easy access back slip pocket

AND, the look, gotta love the look!  I’m a bit over the modern dots and stripes and colors that make you blind just looking at them on fabric!

As always, the images do not do these bags justice!  I love the size and style combined.  It’s preppy meets functional, classy and essential, PLUS all the colors and designs are “everyone” friendly, your husband, your nanny, your MIL, none of them will complain as they carry a Momma Couture bag!  The Momma Helper bag below is again, the perfect size and versatile in the fact that after the baby/toddler stage is over, use the fully insulated bag for a school or work lunch tote!  Whether you’re looking for a small bag {as small as a wristlet} for your non-baby essentials or a large carry-all like the Playdate for every need you can throw at it, you’ll find brilliancy at it’s finest at Momma Couture!

The insulated wristlet above is awesome, “Stinky Bum!”, too cute!!

Enjoy 15% off with the code BabyE15 on your purchases at Momma Couture!!
