Funny Shirts and Onesies Galore!

We've partnered up with MYlilTOEs!

Our good friend, Alyssa and her husband, decided to make some unique custom onesies when their gorgeous son was born in April of 2010. Their son's onesies created a surge of interests from their family, relatives, and friends like us. This prompted them to venture in the children's clothing market. They branded their shirts and onesies with the name My Lil Toes and their cute logo is extra apecial because the feet and toes in it are actually their son's foot prints when he was a newborn!

My Lil Toes uses quality materials for all little munchkins to wear. The short sleeved onesies & Tees are made of 6.4 oz 100% cotton interlock knit or 35% cotton/65% polyester interlock knit material. Unlike silk-screening, the prints on all My Lil Toesshirts and onesies are non-ink/paint that may cause skin irritation. My Lil Toes uses a rubberized material that is known as heat transfer material, which will not fade, crack, nor peel. This is very flexible and the colors are very vibrant. The prints do not have direct contact to the skin, therefore there is no skin irritation.

All items are customizeable. Choose the size, style, fabric color and/or print color! Have Fun!

Introducing the Rose Bouquet Felt Headbands

Rose Bouquet Felt Headbands in Heather Gray, Hot Pink and Yellow

My sister, Nana, fell in love with a couple of my daughter's headbands that we got when we were on vacation a few of months ago.  After months of trying to get our hands on the felt headbands with no luck, my sister decided to use those headbands as inspiration and created the Rose Bouquet Felt headbands.  They are now available at www.kittenandnana.com!  The colors above are my favorite though if you want to add a little spunk, this one could be perfect for you:

Zebra and Fuchsia Combination

This collection comes in 9 different colors, all solid with the exception of the Zebra and Fuchsia combination above.  She PASSIONATELY handcrafted each and every headband with love... I must share though that she even got burnt by the glue gun at one point while making these.  My poor sis!

Show her some love and check out these headbands at our store!

Going Bananas!

With one week left before the 2011 Walnut Creek Family Fest, we have been very busy with preparations for the event and making new products to add to our collection of hair accessories.  Add to that chasing after our three girls, being carpool drivers, homework, attending playdates, etc. and we are indeed going bananas!  In as much as we have been so busy, we really can't complain.  The joy and excitement we feel over the overwhelming response we have gotten so far for Kitten and Nana more than makes up for it.

We just added these cute little monkeys to our store.  The Trisha & Francis Hair Elastics are sold in pairs.  Like the Corduroy Owl Clips, they are handmade with love from felt and are  perfectly imperfect.  I must say, we really are getting very good at mastering our clip-making skills.

Trisha and Francis

You know how some of our products are inspired by or named after actual people, places, events, etc. in our lives?  Well, as I was making these hair elastics, they were the first ones to pop into my head.  Meet my good friends, Trisha & Francis...

Theirs is a story of true love and friendship.  They have been together for so long, yet everything about them is so new.  I have such admiration not only for their devotion and commitment to each other, but also for proving that the honeymoon never ends.

Oh, and did I mention that they happen to LOVE monkeys??? :-)

love,

Nana

Corduroy Owl Clips-- Perfectly Imperfect!

We just added some cute corduroy owl clips to our store today. These perfectly imperfect clips are made by me and my sister, Nana.

I say that they are "imperfect" because they are personally made by us... though we like to think that we are clip-making-professionals, the truth is we are not... but our goal is to be one, and I think we will get there quite soon!

making them with love...

Now, I say "perfect" because each clip is made with love.  If you factor in the love, joy and excitement generated while making these clips, then you have a clip made to perfection!  The unevenness of the outlines, cut by our bare hands using our cheap crafts scissors, add character to these clips... yeah!

You know what else makes these clips extra special?  We named them after some of our childhood family pets that we loved so dear... Whiskey, Muffin, Ziggy and Kiwi... Aaah Kwi, he was our dad's favorite!

We Are Very Busy Bees!

Hi guys!  This is Trina ("Nana").  Being in business with my dear sister is indeed a dream-come-true. It's amazing what we can come up with when we put our heads together.  Well, the last week has been pretty hectic and I must say, I have never been happier about being this busy in my entire life.  It's true what they say, work isn't work if you're having fun with it.   

Yesterday, I started working on our Vintage Moderne Collection (coming soon!).  Here's a little peek at what's coming up...

Isn't it exciting?!?  We have had so  many milestones in the last week, I cannot even begin to tell you how much more there is to look forward to.  Stay tuned for more exciting news, promos & giveaways and new products for kids...and grown ups too.
