Darlybird Kids — Giveaway-A-Day 11/30


Find the winner for yesterday's Giveaway at the bottom of this post.
____________

You know by now that I'm a Darlybird fan to the tenth power. And I feel I've done a pretty good job of letting you know about the latest and greatest at that fine establishment. Except I'm wrong — I've been totally slacking because I have barely told you anything about their amazing children's selection! So today's winner is so lucky to receive A RETRO COOL RINGS DINING SET FOR KIDS!!!!


Let me tell you right now that I get a total kick out of children's dining sets. So adorable. And in my experience my kids totally buy in as soon as they see something like this. They see it. They get that it's kid designed. They get that it's special and they prefer it to all other dining options immediately. What a super-easy way to make their day.

This particular set includes an 8" plate, cup, spoon, fork and 5.5" bowl. Dishwasher safe. Loving those colors.

You're also going to want to check out some of the other child-like niceties at Darlybird:


You know your inquisitive child would be all over this do-it-yourself clock kit.


Keep don't-cross-the-line arguments to a minimum with this funky travel bingo game.


Shouldn't your child own this so-precious Elephant and Nemo diary?


Wish they made this Light Bright Blankie in queen size.


And. Um. Look at this barrette.

Once again, kudos to the buyer, Rachel Shutz, who puts together the Darlybird collection. And extra kudos because I don't think I will every tire of seeing that fantabulous logo!

Thank you, Darlybird!

You know, that blanket would be so easy to make in queen size and much cheaper too. I bought that exact dot fabric 2 years ago and made a bag with a green lining. so cute! The fabric is by Michael Miller and is in all the good quilt stores and fabric stores (NO Cheap chain stores!) It is about $10 dollars a yard (45wide) but since it came out so long ago, they probably make a 60" wide fabric of the same print now. If you buy 6 yards = 60 dollars plus 2 yards of wide fleece for $16 (8/yard) this type of quilt requires no batting...ok add 2 bucks for thread. I say, Do it, get what you want and be happy. I am a professional quilter and a die hard "I would rather make it myself" type gal. Something homemade is always better than buying...you control the quality and outcome. You will always love it because you made the perfect choices for you - everystep of the way.
