When we saw Shains last month we became big fans right away. Shains are a very cool gift for tweens and teens or anyone who has something to say!   Shains manufactures bracelets, necklaces, pet collars, hair bands, key chains, and much more all designed to work with Shains interchangeable icons and letters.

Here are the things we love about Shainsware

• they are dedicated to producing eco-friendly products that are useful and empowering. 
• they donate a percentage of net profits to environmental organizations. 
• Shains products are made of recycled and recyclable parts and everything Shains produces is certified lead free. 
• Shains packaging is also recycled and recylable. 

We have had a few emails from parents asking for some ideas for their tweens and teens for Christmas presents.  You can check out our Holiday Gift Showcase, but we also found a new and local company that creates custom graphic gear for outdoor sports. 

You can customize graphics to make you ski or snowboard all your own.  It’s an inexpensive way to get a totally custom and fresh look on your gear.

FreshFace is a great way to give your board (or skis) a brand new look without the high expense. Many times we’ve heard that our customers enjoy their boards (or skis) but would like to bring the style into this century. A FreshFace is the way to go! Our FreshFaces are temporary (you can update them as often as you wish), but they also last - for as long as 2 seasons.

To sum it up, The FreshPow! FreshFace^TM”  is a graphic that is applied to the top of snowboards, skateboards and other lifestyle sports equipment.  A great way to score points with your kids this Christmas.

There is only one company who I trust to make our birthday invites and Christmas cards each year, and luckily for our readers they are based in York Region. 

Grace Announcements is the place to get your cards for the upcoming holidays. Mom of 2 and owner/designer, Lindsay loves creating custom photo cards and stationery for all your life’s moments.  

She has a complete line of professionally printed photo birth and adoption announcements, invitations, holiday cards, note cards, call me cards and more.

I am so excited that I just got the proof of our Christmas card yesterday and can’t wait to send it out!  I can’t share it here, because I want it to be a surprise for my friends and family!  But take a look at this great card, that also is a birth announcement and go to the gallery to view all the spectacular designs!

StinkyKids is a fresh & fun line of kids clothes with a motto moms can get behind:  “Always be a leader of good”.  

With multicultural designs you’ll most likely find a StinkyKid design that looks like your child, and as a bonus they even have sizes for moms!

We like the fact that StinkyKids are regular kids that make good choices. As we start teaching our preschooler about telling the truth and reminding him about the manners we expect we like the fact that the designs at StinkyKids capture the most treasured moments of childhood. Whether it’s a princess, a golfer, a ballerina, or kid in a bathing suit, each one captures a moment of childhood. As StinkyKids says, “a little sentiment and a lot of spunk are a part of each and every StinkyKid!”

I really can’t tell you how much I love everything about Ladybugs & Lullabies, makers of amazingly unqiue hair clips and accessories for babies & toddlers. As my little one’s hair is starting to get longer I have really gotten in this accessorizing clips with outfits. I did infact just place another order including Strawberry Fields (too cute)as well as some ladybug clips.

This Canadian mom-run company excels at providing excellent customer service for their handmade products. My favourite clips are the alligator clips, that stay in my 9 months hair all-day. (I mean all day!) I do also like the fact that no matter how much hair your baby has, even if it’s peach fuzz the clip will stay in.

These hair clips aren’t just hair clips - they are works of art!

Alli’s Originals is one of our favourite companies that we have had the pleasure of dealing with. Based in Toronto, Alli creates personalized sterling silver jewellery with hand stamped necklaces, bracelets, charms and keyrings. Two years ago we got my Mother In Law the darling discs for Mother’s Day and we loved everything about our experience, from the ordering process, price and the gift itself!

With our family now happily complete myself and my husband (yes, she does men’s jewellery) both now have mementos of our children on our necklaces.

I have the wonderful darling discs with my little ones names and my husband has two hand cut bars with the kids names and birth days on them.
