Day 8 - 12 Days of Giveaways
Where have I been today??? I had my 2 best girls come over with all their kiddos (making it a total of 7 littles 4 and under) and we made White Chocolate Wonderful (or Reindeer Chow as some may call it) and had some delicious Cheddar and Broccoli soup for lunch. Fun stuff, now to get caught up with you :)
Today's giveaway is a combo pack :) How about a combination of snack bags and reusable cloth napkins? I could do a couple bags and a couple napkins, but that would just not cut it in my household (since I have a bunch of kids), so I am doing it up big.
6 reusable bags and 6 flannel un-paper towels. How's that sound??

Day 7 - 12 Days of Giveaways
I am almost done doing my favorite thing of the year; wrapping presents!! I love doing it. In fact, in my past life (aka, before the twins), I used to drive school bus and I would go to my girlfriend's houses during the day and wrap their presents for them too. I joke that I should get a job wrapping presents in the mall, I LOVE IT!!!!
Anyway, I am working on organizing my house for the big day and finishing a project to the newest family member, Irina, born November 7th. She is getting some diapers from her Aunty for Christmas :) So while I am working on diaps, how about if I make one for one of my wonderful fans??
Who wants a diaper? The Elephant Walk is gender neutral, right?? I do it with lime snaps now (since I have them and they match much better than the tan), but this is the general idea of what you will get.

Oh and I HATE wrapping. Probably because I am HORRIBLE at it. But alas I still rather do it myself, ugly or not, than pay someone else to do it!

Day 3 - 12 Days of Giveaways
So today I am adding to my stock of reusable snack bags. Man alive they are expensive on Etsy!! I had them listed at one time and I never sold 1, but that does not mean that I make a shabby bag, in fact, just the opposite.
I went to Twin's Group Christmas Dinner last night and we had a Yankee Swap. Of course, I forgot all about the gift until about 2 hours before the dinner, so I grabbed a few pieces of material and whipped up a few bags (I knew that 2 mommas were interested in getting some from me, so I knew that they would want that gift). Jillian got #1 (and I knew she was one of my admirers) and luck of the draw she picks my gift. I immediately told her that she was gonna love it. She did :) My gift was then swapped 6 more times over 14 ladies and eventually ended back in Jillians hands at the end. In the meantime, they were oh-ed and ah-ed over by all the mommas. Love that!
So what do you think it a fair amount for the giveaway? How about 2 sandwich sized and 2 snack sized? I have several in hand and we can get to the picking and choosing when you win. One entry per comment, then get a few more below:

Making Baby Legs (a.k.a. leg warmers)
I have an addiction. Well, you probably know that from my material supply :)
I love showing off how cute Brooke is in her cloth diapers. The best way to do that is with her leg warmers. I had some that I purchased off of Etsy for the twins. They held up nicely and I toyed with the idea of making some and how the ones I bought were made. Anyway, as you know, I don't have a ton of time on my hands and just purchased a few more for Brooke in the infant size.
Again, I looked at them and thought that they were just made from knee-high socks. They are one whole piece of the leg with a simple cuff on the bottom, serge them together and you've got leg warmers. Well, as I was shopping in Target last week, I ran across some knee-highs in the same print as the LWs I had just bought. My thought was confirmed, so just like that I bought 3 other pairs to make my own.
Simple as can be. Here's what you need: 1 pair of knee-highs (at least 8" for infant or 12" for toddler), scissors, sewing machine or serger. Basically, cut off the top of the sock at the length you desire the LW to be. Cut off the toe and heal, keeping the section inbetween that matches the pattern of the top. I narrow this tube with a small seam, 1/8", on the sole of the sock (I will get a photo to show this up) and then turn and fold in half with right side out. Pin to the leg part and run a seam to attach the cuff to the LW. Done. Takes a whole of 10 minutes at the most, in fact getting my machine out and putting it back away took more time than anything else, go figure :)
Now go make some for your little one. If you are not handy or don't have a machine you can check out the shop I got mine from, she has a fantastic selection: Crawler Covers & More or maybe I will start stocking a few once I get the store up and running again.

All Minkee Diaper Giveaway (CLOSED)
And the winner is:
True Random Number Generator
23
Powered by RANDOM.ORG
#23 is: Cathie M. Rainwater said...
Yeah Catherine :) I'm so happy for you!!
So here it is! Sorry for the delay :) We are getting dumped on with another 8" of snow and I told the kiddos we can play in the snow once Mommy gets this post up (that should buy me about 3 minutes of peace)...
I have offered minkee as an upgrade for my diapers for years, but I finally decided to try the minkee on the outside as well (not a super original idea, I saw other companies doing it and I was like, hey that's fun). Does it really serve any advantages over the other styles? No. But it's soft and snugly, that counts for something.
I have these two, in my only minkee prints, made up in the S/M with the flap soaker. This is my personal favorite style of diaper, but it can be made in the OS pocket or any of the fitted single sizes.
Brooke loves them. O.K., I love them on her, she just loves a clean dry bottom. But they are super cute and I hate putting clothes on over these :)
Left: snapped down for Small rise.
Below: unsnapped for Medium rise.
Crossover snaps offer snug fit for even the littlest of littles, I should have had these on hand at the end of September. I've been a bit bored of single snap colors lately, so I jazzed them up with a mix of coordinating snaps (this definitely takes more time since the perfectionist in me has to have the pattern of snap mix-ups the same), but it does make them even more fun :) Now for all you mommas of boys, I do apologize for the limited choices (it's either solid colors or Zebra), but paired with the blue minkee inner, the Zebra is still super cute for those little men!!
Favorite Snowy day activity: Making hot chocolate and reading...but if the kids are home, cuddling and watching movies with popcorn. January 22, 2011 7:12 PM

The All Minkee Diaper by Three Monkeys Cloth Diapers
I tried to get a picture that really showed the plush-ness of these diapers. They are great!!
For those of you that do not know what Minkee is, it's a soft, furry polyester material that is mostly used in baby items (the fuzzy side of baby loveys are often minkee). The benefit of using it on a diaper is #1. obviously, it's super soft (imagine that touching your backside, *sigh*), #2. it's polyester, so it will not wick and #3. it resists staining and washes very well.

Does it really serve any advantages over the other styles? No. But it's soft and snugly, that counts for something.
I have these two, in my only minkee prints, made up in the S/M with the flap soaker. This is my personal favorite style of diaper, but it can be made in the OS pocket or any of the fitted single sizes.
Left: snapped down for Small rise.
Below: unsnapped for Medium rise.
Crossover snaps offer snug fit for even the littlest of littles, I should have had these on hand at the end of September. I've been a bit bored of single snap colors lately, so I jazzed them up with a mix of coordinating snaps (this definitely takes more time since the perfectionist in me has to have the pattern of snap mix-ups the same), but it does make them even more fun :) Now for all you mommas of boys, I do apologize for the limited choices (it's either solid colors or Zebra), but paired with the blue minkee inner, the Zebra is still super cute for those little men!!

3 Monkeys Fabrics is Now OPEN
I had mentioned it before, but I finally did it. I opened a store to sell off some of my fabrics. I decided that even if I sew everyday for the rest of my life, I will never use all this fabric I have :) My brand new material room is filled to the ceiling (much to my husbands dismay since he put up pretty crown molding) and I need to get some out so I can get steady supply of new stuff.
Anyway, here it is: 3monkeysfabrics. LMK if I don't have a fabric up that you are interested in. I will not list every print because it will cost me an arm and a leg to do that, but I do have some prints that I have huge bolts of and ones that are a little less popular for diapers.
