Little House of Colors! I am SO excited to announce that Little House of Colors (LHoC) will be sponsoring me for the next two months and will be offering my readers (that's you folks!) a 15% discount on all orders placed between now and January 31st, 2014. I ordered a pair of booties from LHoC's shop on Etsy for my daughter's first birthday and they are just adorable. There are several reasons why I was happy to purchase these shoes. First, I like purchasing items for my daughter that are unique; they weren't mass produced for a big box store. Second, I like supporting individuals who are trying to make a go doing what they are passionate about. Third, being a vegetarian, I wanted shoes that were non-leather. And last but definitely not least, these shoes are just super cute! I love the print combinations and colors!
Lauren is the designer and seamstress at LHoC, she is also the mother to two little girls and a newborn baby girl! This is Lauren's story in her own words:
"I tinkered with my mother's old sewing machine here and there as a kid (i.e. I thread it a bunch of times, but never actually made anything!), and decided to buy my own just a few years ago. With a new baby girl in the house, and friends that were popping out kids all around me, I really wanted to start making fun, colorful, and most importantly, useful items for all! I gave a few pairs of my handmade booties away as baby-shower gifts and instantly knew that I had something special...something you can't find in a big-box retail store."
In addition to all of the booties in adorable prints for girls and boys, Lauren also makes bibs, burp clothes, and other baby acccessories. I am excited to be helping to promote a talented and crafty stay-at-home mom and I am super excited that she will be supporting this stay-at-home mom for the next two months! So if you have a little one in your house and are still looking for a gift idea for Christmas or if you have a friend that is expecting, Lauren's products would be perfect!
