BubyNoa Handmade Toys & Kids Accessories (10% Off)

Sometimes your eyes fall on an item (art or a tshirt or a potted plant or book cover) and it just stirs something in your heart. That's how I felt when I stumbled upon the Etsy shop BubyNoa this past weekend. So I am very excited to introduce you to this amazing shop full of upcycled, handmade, eco-friendly, and just darling and thoughtful kids' toys and accessories and other bits and pieces... and I'm so happy to share that Mirit, the shop creator, has been kind enough to offer us a discount. (Thank you, Mirit, you are super cool.)

In her own words, Mirit on the inspiration behind her amazing shop:

My inspiration comes from my environmental concerns, nature, my experience, my children. My life :)

I care deeply for the environment and I have a lot of love and true admiration for animals. I wanted bubynoa to incorporate all of these feelings and beliefs in each and every product.

The love and concern for wild animals and their habitat inspire me when creating my wild animal dolls. My inspiration for my dog dolls came from an actual black dog that I saw when travelling. “Ceci the cat” was created in honor of my brave feisty and wonderfully crazy black cat Ceci who was also a rescue animal.

I see bubynoa as an educational tool; each item is eco friendly and ethically-sourced and then there is the finished product that entices and engages. I create the lions, rhinos, elephant and giraffes to introduce them to children. Those animals and their habitat are on the verge of extinction, and we can change that by teaching and raising awareness at a young age. When a parent purchases a rhino doll for example, they are introducing a whole new world to their young child. Now the child recognizes the animals in movies or books and a conversation is started."


I am excited to use this code myself for a special little someone and I hope a few of you are also inspired to support BubyNoa and save a little green at the same time this holiday season. For 10% off your purchase use code "4OTANDET" valid through 3 February 2014.

a giveaway | from my hand to your art CLOSED

Sometimes you come across someone and it is an instant connection -- love at first sight (or instagram, ha) and the more you get to know them the more you fall truly, madly, deeply. That's how it was for me with Kat, the lovely Michigan mama and sweet crafter extraordinaire behind the Etsy shop From My Hand to Your Art. Kat is one of these people who actually makes you laugh out loud and at the same time is so earnest she truly inspires. She puts so much thought into everything she does, from meal planning to home schooling to her amazing, newly-launched Etsy shop of custom handmade dolls, diy doll kits for kids, custom family trees, embroidery pieces, watercolors, and more. Here, see...

Every little thing is thought out to perfection and done prettily down to the smallest detail. We were so excited when Kat sent Otto and Loretta custom Ot and Et dolls of their own. Loretta gives her handmade baby hugs and kisses. Otto agreed to put clothes on (dude be an underwear nudist lately) so that I could take pictures of him stuffing and sewing his doll kit.

Now it's everyone's lucky day because Kat is offering you a 10% discount code at her shop. Just enter code "OTANDETROCKS" at checkout for the discount to be applied. Hurray!

You can also WIN WIN WIN a custom baby doll or DIY doll kit of your choice. Otto's face lit up with excitement when he opened up his doll kit and saw his mini Otto. He is 4 years old and he did so well with the supervised project, filling the doll full of stuffing, adding the embroidered heart, and then carefully sewing up the bottoms. From My Hand to Your Art dolls would make the perfect gift and forever keepsake for any little one.

To enter the giveaway just leave a comment for each entry. The first entry is mandatory, the others options.

- First, go visit Kat's Etsy shop and let me know what your favorite item is in the shop
- Next you can like From My Hand to Your Art on Facebook
- You can also follow From My Hand to Your Art on Instagram 
- Tweet this giveaway with a link to this page (include link to tweet in comment) limit 1x daily
- And I'd be honored if you'd follow Ot and Et on Bloglovin

I will choose a random winner early next week so the giveaway will stay open until Sunday at midnight PT. Good luck!
