Gift Guide: The Mama

These are all the things that I am presently in love with and wouldn't mind getting, but I honestly have everything I could possibly need...an amazing Papa, my Babes, and the opportunity to eat healthily each day.  Here is wishing you all the best Merry Christmas, Holidays and New Year...

Gift Guide: The Babes

This gift guide is inspired by those who I love the most:  the Babes.  We are celebrants of Santa and he leaves several gifts for each.  Usually they are a clothing item, a book, a toy, some stocking stuffers and maybe a shared big ticket item.  This year my Babes, when asked what they would like Santa to bring, they simply replied "a spinning top".  I sure hope the big guy doesn't disappoint.

However, putting gift guides together is oh so fun and these gems speak to my babes...

this is a treasury someone put together on etsy.  It was entitled "Daddy's Little Girl" so I couldn't resist sharing.

And some last minute DIYs that I found really helpful were by Katie from Skunkboy, now writing for A Beautiful Mess:  kitchenette, handpainted ukelele,  drums, and stick horses.

I must be off.  I have to work on more Christmas crafting and need to complete 2 rainbow scarves by Christmas day.

HOLIDAY GIFT GUIDE FOR THE TATTOOED MAMA

I am known in my family as a really great gift giver. I appreciate the compliment greatly. To me finding the perfect gift for the someone you care for fills them with so much joy because they can truly see the depth of thought that went into it. Now, it isn't always easy. There are those amazingly selfless people who never drop any hint of what they need because they are so content with everything they have (love you Mom!). But most of us are generally consistent and have a hobby or interest that can guide gift making or purchasing.

First up...let's tackle the Tattooed Mama. Basically it is a list of things I think a tattooed mama like myself would enjoy...HINT. HINT.

1. blythe doll / 2. cupcake provocateur apron / 3. cutie dynamite hair clip /

4. forever 21 graphic comic tee / 5. ihirst replication crystal skull /

6. keep calm and zombie on poster / 7. my fave artiste Kelli Murray piece /

8. tattoo zombie inspired tee by megan lara / 9. pinky toast stocking

10. a new tat ... this one by spencer kmyta from captain's tattoo
