Cute Things Happening At Suzi Homemaker!

Have you ever wondered where oh where you could find that perfect gift for someone? Maybe even for the person who already has everything? Or, maybe you are like me, and have an unusually spelled name, or have kiddos with unique names. I mean, really, where do you ever see something with the name Kristle on it? I've honestly, in my 24 years of living, have never had something with my name on it, spelled correctly that is. Also, my boys are Cooper and Maysen, and while Cooper is becoming more and more popular I'm finding, it's still hard to find things with the name on it. And since I had to be difficult and spell Maysen's name weird, I've yet to see anything with his on it either. Are ya getting my drift? Haha..

Well, look no further because I have the perfect place for all of us! Suzi Homemaker is "Mom-owned" embroidery and sewing business, that has so many cute things you can add a name to! From aprons, to towels, tote bags, lunch boxes, and backpacks, you can find most anything you'd need right in one place. She also has everything baby, including bibs, blankets, hooded towels, diaper bags, onesies and burp cloths. Everything she sells can be personalized, and at no extra cost! You even get to pick your colors, font, and of course spelling. She also does some great designs if a name isn't really what you're looking for!

Take for example, Maysen's Pirate Backpack. Not only does it have his name on it, in cute 'Pirate-y' font, but it also has the typical 'skull and crossbones' you expect to find on anything pirate! My little man was so proud to wear his backpack like his big brother! You can just read the joy on his face!
Cooper had to have a Camo Backpack to match his camo lunch box we'd already bought. Oh, and while I'm at it, let me tell you about this boy and his backpack! I had stopped to check the mail on the way to Walmart, and the package from Suzi Homemaker was in the mailbox. I of course opened it right away because I just couldn't wait to see them! Well, Cooper loved it so much he just HAD to wear it into Walmart and all around the store. I barely got the thing off of him to go to bed that night! Also, it came just in time, as he had his very first day of Pre-school the next day. He was so proud to wear that backpack and be going to school. He got so many compliments on it from his teacher, which only made it that much better.

If you are in need of a gift for that special someone, or even if you are shopping for #1 (duh, yourself!), go check out Suzi Homemaker! If you don't find what you're looking for, be sure and shoot Suzi a message, because chances are, she can still help you! Check out her gallery and see some of the awesome work she's done!

exotic1 said...

Monogrammed Notebooks are the coolest thing I have seen~! My son would love it in the Cameo. I have a stepson named "Mason" also but like your self it is spelled different. Also "Lexi" and "Latoia" which are also hard to find anything monogrammed in there names. So I definately understand where your coming from. It would be great to finally get them personalized school backpacks as well. Have a great day and Thanks for having this giveaway.

Sara said...

oh my gosh! I LOVE your stuff! I can't tell you just one thing, so please forgive me:

I loooove the pirate backpack. My son is so into pirates and he often visits his nana and papa, so that would do him so much good. I also love the munch box and the diaper stacker. But, probably more than anything - I adore the laptop case with the preppy lines. Speaking of, do you have pictures of the fabrics?

One other question: do you do capes?

my email address: s dot steinwachs at comcast DOT net

thanks!

Leigh said...

I've been thinking that her personalized aprons would be great (and easy) presents for all of the cousins this year at Christmas. Wouldn't it be great to do all your shopping on one site and be done?! *dreamy sigh* And what kid couldn't use an apron? Either to cook with, or to paint in, perfect!

Leigh said...

I am also a subscriber to your feed through my google homepage :)

MyKidsMom said...

Wow- I loved everything. Thanks for sharing this site, I'm definitely going to check it out more.

I love the personalized bags and aprons. My daughter and I never find our names spelled correctly on anything. We're used to it, but I think I just might splurge on one of these items. IF I don't win your contest of course;)

Katy said...

I would LOVE to win a gardening tote in toile. (and I would pay the extra $$$ for it) I would use it for our homeschool outtings to the library, field trips etc!!!
Thanks so much for this chance!

Nurse Mommy said...

I would get the snack squares and the cosmo bag!

Paige (jpaige203@yahoo.com)

Natasha said...

I would get my little guy a "Munch Box" with his name on it (in blue plaid). When we choose his name, we weren't thinking about all those personalized items you can pick up at the store, he gets so angry that he can never find anything with his name spelt right on it, so this would be perfect!
