This Little Piggy – Review & Giveaway – CLOSED

A few weeks ago I introduced all of you to a very creative jewelry designer Colleen Ash. A few years ago, after Colleen’s son was born, she transferred some of her creativity from jewelry making to wee ones. She has started to make bibs, booties and taggie blankies for babies. Colleen has been more than a pleasure to do business with and she has just created a new children’s line called This Little Piggy.

thislittlepiggy2 Colleen sent me a few things from This Little Piggy to try out. The first is a taggie blankie. The blanket has about 16 different lengths and thickness of tags for babies to suck and chew on (great for my teething toddler). The blanket is also made with a super soft fleece on one side and a cotton on the other so the fabric feels nice on tiny hands. This Little Piggy also included some little teething rings on the taggies, I thought this was a marvelous idea, it gives DD one extra thing to bite on.

thislittlepiggy1 I also received a bib from This Little Piggy, the bib is hand made, and had a thick terry cloth on one side and a cute jelly bean pattern on the other side. The bib is very absorbent, and has a very lengthy velcro tab so the bib can be quite small or rather large. It will fit around every babies neck and double chin, big or small. The bib is not super huge, and fits DD’s chest area. This is just a classic bib that any child can wear, and is easy to bring with you for an outing.

thislittlepiggy The last item that I received from This Little Piggy is a pair of booties. This little booties were made from polar fleece (but there are other options as well). I’m not sure if any of you have worked with stripped material before, but it is so hard to get the pattern right, especially when you have to make 2 identical items. This Little Piggy has made the shoes identical even with the stripe pattern. The shoes have a elastic around the heel so they stay on just as well as any other shoes do. While sitting in her car seat, DD can take them off herself (a new trick she learned with all her shoes), but while busy like jumping and crawling around the shoes stay on.

This Little Piggy is just starting out with children’s items and is on their way to a very successful line of handmade items. The prices are very very fair and Colleen is just a pleasure to deal with!
