2nd Annual "Design Your Own Canopy" Contest!!

Towards the end of summer, I start looking for fresh and new ideas for car seat canopies in the shop.

Last year, we had an amazing time with our first car seat canopy design contest, 

so we're doing it again this year!

This is the combo that won last year.

Cute, huh?

Now it's your turn!

Simply visit an online fabric store and come back to leave a comment with the links to your favorite fabric swatches.  The reader that picks out a combo that I absolutely love the most will win a car seat canopy in those fabrics. **Keep in mind that you need at least two different (yet coordinating) fabrics for your canopy.**

So.  A few details.

1.  Fabrics can be picked from ANY online source.  A few suggestions?  Fabric.com, Fabricworm, Raspeberry Creek Fabrics, or Fashionable Fabrics.  Again, these are just suggestions.  As long as I can follow a link back to your fabric choices, they can really come from anywhere!

2.  It's best to keep to cotton, corduroy, flannel and/or minky.

3.  You have 2 weeks to pick fabrics and share!  I will announce a winner on July 15.

4.  And, so sorry, but this little contest is only open to readers in the US.

Any questions?  Leave them below and I'll respond to you asap.  I cannot wait to see what you all come up with!  

Good luck and have fun!!

Design Your Own Car Seat Canopy Winner!!

First of all, I apologize that this is late.  There were so many amazing entries that going through all of them was pretty time consuming.  Trying to pick a favorite was even more time consuming. You guys are awesome!!

And then, we had a horrible weekend around here.  My 3 year old fell off the top bunk bed backwards, hit his head on a table and cracked his skull in two different places. He also had some bleeding on his brain.  Not good.  So, we spent all weekend in PICU at our children's hospital. Luckily, the bleeding stopped quickly and we are all at home trying to recuperate.

My little guy being transported by ambulance to the children's hospital.

 And then feeling much better with a visit from big brother!

The good news now, is that I finally have a chance to announce the winner!!  I cannot say enough how amazing all of the entries were. Because I couldn't narrow it down to just one, I have a Top 3.  The 3rd place runner up will receive a coupon code for 25% off of the car seat canopy of her design and the 2nd place runner up will receive a 50% off coupon for her car seat canopy.

So, without further ado...

Our 3rd Place Runner Up is:

Ladies, if you would please contact me via either Facebook private message OR email me at kadydiddesigns (at) gmail (dot) com, we can get this process started for you.

Thank you again, so much, for all of you who participated!  We will definitely be doing this again next summer.  And remember, if you just really, really love the fabrics you picked and want a custom car seat canopy made for you, we would be happy to do so!

Busy Little Bees

We have been so incredibly busy the last few weeks getting new items ready to go in the shop! 

 So, here's a quick peek at a few of them...

Fully reversible car seat covers (you can find this one HERE)

Leg warmers to cover adorable rolls of chub (which can be found HERE)

And sweet little Valentine's Day onesies (found HERE)

We also have a new line of Princess Length Tutus, which I will give just the tiniest peek of, because we have way too many absolutely adorable photos to share only one.

These aren't in the shop yet, but they will be soon.
