thankful for…

…all these wonderful simplewear Etsy orders i’ve received this month!

seems like the holiday season is in full swing now.  holiday decorations are up in most major retail stores, temporary ice skating rinks have landed and my simplewear Etsy shop has been busy taking orders for the thanksgiving holiday.  no, we’re not selling turkeys!  however, it seems a lot of you have a bun in the oven!  and thanksgiving is the perfect holiday to make your special announcement to the family.  i’ve had a lot of orders for the “i heart grandma & grandpa (coming soon…)” onesie along with a couple custom requests.

this one in particular i thought was very fitting for the thanksgiving holiday. mama-to-be is surprising her family by wrapping these onesies up with the silverware for dinnertime .  how cute and fun, huh?

when she told me her initial idea, i immediately new this custom design was a must. reminds me of when we go around the table and say what we’re each thankful for.  as an added surprise to each onesie, the expected due date (coming soon july 2013) is mentioned on the backside of the onesie.  the soon to be aunties & uncles are getting the classic “loved and spoiled by” designs with the addition of the due date announcement on the backside as well.

if you’re interested in using a simplewear onesie to help make your special announcement, be sure to visit the shop and check out the available designs.  remember, we do custom designs and all existing designs are fully customizable as well.

coming soon onesie

an Etsy customer recently contacted me in regards to my “i heart grandma & grandpa (coming soon…)” onesie.  she liked the idea of using the onesie as a way to announce to her parents that she and her husband are expecting, but wasn’t sure what title they wanted to go by as grandparents.  so i suggested doing a onesie that just said, “coming soon” with the expected date.

as i was creating the design, i thought this little onesie would actually be a pretty fun and special way of announcing to a soon-to-be dad as well of the exciting news.

coming soon…” onesie now available for purchase on my Etsy shop.

i ♥ mamaw & papaw (coming soon…)

i’ve received so many orders for the “i heart grandma & grandpa (coming soon…)” onesie lately and a few times i’ve been asked to customize this design with their own version of “grandma & grandpa” or even a few “aunt & uncle” requests, which makes for a special way of announcing your pregnancy to the ENTIRE family!

here is a special one i created recently that is on it’s way to surprising a set of parents of their son’s new journey into fatherhood.  matthew is currently in afghanistan, so he’ll be skyping with his parents as they open this special package.  i can’t wait to hear and see their reaction when they open this package.  with luck, i’m hoping matthew is able to get a screenshot of his mother’s face as he’s promised to share her reaction with me.

just thinking about it brings tears of joy to my eyes.

i heart grandma & grandpa (coming soon…)

i’ve had several requests lately for the “i heart grandma & grandpa (coming soon…)” onesie, so i’ve decided to list it as a new item on my simplewear Etsy shop.

this little onesie makes for a fun and special way to announce to your parents (a.k.a. soon to be grandparents) that a little one is on it’s way!
