Best Baby Products: a BIG FAT HEN sale!!

Calling all moms and dads of little tiny people! Have you started your holiday shopping yet? How much of it will you do online? If you're looking for a good place to start, I have an idea for you.....

Until November 7th, Canadian-based BIG FAT HEN is having a crazy sale on their organic cotton sleep sacks. You'll get them for 50% when you order off their website www.bigfathen.ca. Yes, 50%! Not to mention, the first 50 people to share the sale on their social media sites and report back will receive a Big Fat Hen gift (click here to follow BFH on twitter). It's win/win!

Plus, I happen to know Miss Emily (BFH's CEO) personally, and I can tell you with complete confidence that these products are of the highest quality and craftsmanship!!

Check out the sleep sack selection here. These are a perfect holiday gift for babies far and wide......

(Sound familiar? You might remember BIG FAT HEN from this collaborative giveaway)

One Year of Koopoppeting!

Big news, big news! Koo & Poppet turns 1 this month.

[Insert Kooriotous poppet fanfare here]

To commemorate this event, I have decided to make a monumental Koo. One that is the King of Koos, nay, the KING KONG of Koos! It will be so large I will need to use 100 of the 250 bags of stuffing I now have stored in the crawlspace.

No. Seriously now. Let's do something much more practical, but celebratory all at the same time. Let's have a sale! Until June 1st a selection of items in the Koo & Poppet shop will be 50% off. And if you haven't been by the shop in a while, don't miss out - there are several new designs exclusive to 2010. How about Gary? Have you met Gary???

I would also like to thank everyone who has supported Koo & Poppet over the last year. I'm so grateful for the encouragement, the comments, the feedback, the spreading of the word.....and in some cases even the slave labour! *

[*Last year, just as I was about to drown in the tidal wave that was the Christmas rush, I called upon my friends and they rallied to help. My parents offered us their empty downstairs room and my dad organized some folding tables and made triangle sandwiches. One by one, male and female, more than a dozen of my closest peeps showed up to assist however they could; cutting patterns, tying ribbon, assembling hang tags. I paid them in licorice and argyle socks. I don't know how I would have filled every order in the month of December without their help (needless to say, I am already preparing for this year). Also needless to say, I have the world's greatest friends.]

Just a quick note to say.....

.....please visit the Koo & Poppet misfits featured over at Papernstitch this month! It's new territory for them and they would be oh so comforted by a familiar face or two. (Scroll down on the home page and you are sure to spy one!)

Thanks for the support!

Pleased to make your acquaintance...

Meet Liam, Lou Lou, Milly, Avril and Daria.

Daria, Milly and Avril are already available in the shop, and the others will be joining them shortly.

What a week it's been. I've been sick with the flu and being sick with the flu is quite an inconvenience when you have an eleven-month-old. Luckily I received a lot of help from my husband and my parents! Also, we're moving in a week so attempting to pack up the bits and pieces of our lives is also proving to be a little chaotic. And somehow, these little rabbits keep multiplying....

I would be so delighted if you would take a moment to tell me which of the above creatures is your favourite! 

Have a great weekend everyone.

Sale today in the Shop!

Hi everyone! Today is my 28th birthday so for one day only I am offering free shipping on any purchase from my Etsy Shop. 

My other plans for the day include breakfast in bed, a facial and pedicure at the spa, much sewing, and supper with my family. We were originally supposed to be spending the weekend in Tofino, but there was a flu outbreak up there so our trip was canceled. Turns out, I caught one anyway, but thank goodness I'm feeling better in time for some birthday cake!

Featured treasure

Oh, how I covet these lovely items I've recently received from afar!

And Jennifer (check out her gorgeous shop) was kind enough to pass along the heads up that Fredrick the Fox was featured in Etsy's Woodland Gift Guide! Do us proud, little Fred, do us proud.

p.s. Don't forget to enter the GIVEAWAY! I am in such a great mood that I might just have to choose two winners! Wait and see.......

Featured on Kenziepoo!

Rachelle of Kenziepoo has kindly featured Koo & Poppet! You can check it out here. I am honored to be mentioned on her modern, all-things-baby blog. 

Also, there will be a shop update next week. I'm thinking Monday or Tuesday but I'll post again when I know for sure. Here is a tiny teaser in the meantime......little bows to be adorned to the bottoms of several Cute Bunnies....

Black, white, polka dot, gingham....I find these bows irresistible! 

This little piggy had none

Meet Piquette. She likes mud baths and dislikes soap. She's really too pretty to be a pig and hopes that in her next life, she returns as a pony. 

Ooo! Noo Koos!

I'll be updating the shop today with these little buggers.....

(Bluebell, Weasel McBeasel, and Benedict)
