Befores, afters, mood boards, plans, failures, wins. We’ve done a lot of projects, and they’re all here. 

We have a long-standing relationship with DIY, and love rolling our sleeves up and making it happen. 

Even when you don’t want to rip down a wall, you can make that space in your home better. Right now.

1. Sled Legs, wearable sleds so they can run and slide down the hill on their knees. First of all–it’s about time! $48

2. Not available. Here is a similar sherpa jacket! (on sale for $22!)

3. Kid plates are really a present for you disguised as a present for them–this one suctions to just about anything so your baby can’t throw her food everywhere anymore (ahem!) and this construction plate and utensils one is as close to playing with food as we’ll allow in hopes they’ll shovel some of it into their mouths! $13, $14

4. The most realistic, child-sized, sturdy shopping cart they’ve wanted ever since they step foot in their first grocery store (we have this and all three of our kids (1,4, 8) play with it. $62

5. Not available. Here is another Sherpa Colorblock Backpack because everything fuzzy is cute (would make a great first purse, too!) $14!

10. A happy little purse she’ll probably put chapstick and a toy in and love forever. $24

12. The Lost House. A beautiful find and seek book. $13

13. Not available. But how cute is this set of five rattles?! Perfectly sized for small hands and teething. $39

14. This hoop’s scoreboard lights up and keeps track of every point, while music plays and a shot clock keeps the game going–all while looking sleek in a white finish (win. win. win.) On sale for $98!

15. Anti-blue light glasses with 0 magnification. So whether they just want pretend glasses (just my kid?) or your concerned all that screen time might be harming their eyes–yes!–these glasses will cover all the bases. $21

    Thanks! Just ordered the Sled Legs for Christmas present.

    Just bought my 3yo niece that caboodle to complete her gift and I am SO excited. I’m putting washable glitter nail polish and a ton of Tattly tattoos inside. And thus my quest to be the best auntie is complete.

  3. Candace says:

    How funny! My 4yo was just asking for glasses “like mommy”… she asks this the day after I get lasik. Kids, man.
