Spoonflower contest: Zodiac!

One of the January Spoonflower contests is for fabrics using an astrological theme: Zodiac!
I rounded up all of the little star signs and designed my first fat quarter.
I have had pattern design on my to do list for over a year now, and I have created lots of designs, they just need to be refined. Enter New Year's resolution: Spoonflower contests on Aloha Baby's to do list :D

Hope you enjoy + don't forget to vote:

luv chicken

Can't wait to get one for each of the kiddos. These boosters were created by a mom AND graphic designer. So you know they are going to be functional as well as fashionable. Thanks Ann Hurley! You are one amazing mamma. It seems as though my kids are not really digging their plastic booster seats anymore. So I started hunting around and aha! Luv Chicken to the rescue.
Get yours here:

Birthday fill-in's

My nephew just turned one, and I wanted to give him something fun. I came up with the idea of a birthday fill in print. I was feeling guilty about the baby's first memory books the other night. My two kiddos each have one, but neither one of them are complete. Sooo, what would be a fun way to remember the cute things our little ones say and do? A birthday fill-in sheet! It's only one page! Woo-hoo! Busy parents rejoice! We can do this. Guilty who?
I created these with a spot for a 4x6 photo to go along side the number. Yes, I hope people still print photos. At least one off your camera is all you need. The first few years are always so much fun. First birthday cakes, funny little hats, lots of smiles. So I started with a 1 and 2 for boys and for girls.
3 and 4 are in the works. So keep your eyes out for more to come. And if you don't already, like us on facebook to stay up to date on the latest in our shop.
Aloha,
René

I heart orangepiel

So my latest discovery this week is orangepiel. They custom print window shades, fine art prints and seamless wallpaper. Imagine the possibilities. Time for some new window treatments!

Sweet serendipity!

What a coincidence - as I am hanging Little Red in my daughter's bedroom today, my Mom brings over my old picnic basket. Flashback to your childhood in 3, 2, 1! I am so thankful she still lives in my childhood home and I can beg her to hold on to my treasures 'for one more year' until I have enough time & space to organize. Love you Mom!!

What big teeth you have!

My latest inspiration for the shop came from my daughter Riley. She has been on a little red riding hood kick. She loves running round the yard with her play picnic basket. She hides behind our large tree--out of sight from the big bad wolf. She has also been singing her ABC’s endlessly. So, I give you Little Red Riding Hood and the ABC's.
