Back 2 School "Made with Love"

It is officially that time of the year again.

 The days are getting shorter, the evenings are getting cooler, and the Sunday Newspaper is getting thicker! 

Why? All those pesky Back 2 School ads. 

That's right, it is that time of year when the kiddos head back to school!
So why not send them Back 2 School "Made with Love".

It is super special for me this year since this will be the first time BOTH of my kids will going to school.
Bella going to Preschool and Jonathon starting 1st Grade!
I am so excited for them both, but I have to admit I was dreading the back to school shopping!
The stores, the crowds, the meltdowns, all so my kid can fall in love with that one item every kid in school will have and realize that it's not as unique as he thought!  

This would result in the lunch bag being not quite as cool as he originally thought and halfway through the year needing a new one. 

Not this year though. This year is different!

You all know how much I love being a stay at home mom and how much I love supporting small businesses... So this year I decided to do our  Back 2 School shopping from the comfort of my own home and from women just like me. Woman who spend their days changing diapers, cleaning up spilled juice, or even working a full time job and their evenings creating amazing personalized handmade products! 

Over the next 2 weeks I am going to be showing you some of the amazing options for Back 2 School items that can be found from these shops. I will also be bringing you some amazing discounts and a chance to win a Back 2 School "Made with LOVE" prize pack including some of the BEST handmade back to school items from some of my favorite shops!

I am so excited to be doing a Back 2 School "Made with Love" Series.
I am thrilled to have opportunity to work with these women and to showcase their amazing skills. I am certain you are going to LOVE the items you see and I urge you before you run out to your local "chain store" that you check sites like Etsy and Storenvy. There are amazing options for one of a kind items that your children are sure to love and you will be helping out other moms and other women while your shopping. I hope you'll follow along as I share these amazingly talented women as well as find some items for your kids with a little less stress doing your back to school shopping.
