This is the kids first week back at school after Christmas Break and I feel like its been a crazy week of running and doing things. Glad its Friday!

Its hard to believe there is only about 5 weeks until Valentines Day, I already feel like 2012 is whizzing by! So today I wanted to highlight some of my favorite Valentines Designs that we have available now for ordering on our website
www.hannahstutus.com. I love any occasion that I can do creative things for a party I already have planned the little things I am making for my 1st graders and Preschoolers Class Parties I'll show those ideas perhaps next week.

This is lollipop sweetheart such a sweet mix of hot pink and red, the adorable bloomers are available at
www.bellaclairebaby.com

This next set of pictures is Sweetheart and its a mix of red, black and white great for some of those team sports colors after the Valentines occasion!









One of my personal favorites thats perfect for all year long is the Hot ZEbra Frills its very very popular!

Hav e a great weekend I know we have a busy one planned we are working on a headboard project using a panel door and I plan to paint my laundry room so lots to do in between the 3 kids!

Happy New Year!

It's a New Year and I have several things on "my list" to get done this year. We are trying to eat better and become a junk food free house, this will be hard BUT we are going to attempt to keep to this as much as possible. We still have some not so good snacks in the house until the kids eat thru them and we are trying to make healthier meals - which is hard for me I enjoy making meals BUT most of them are not the healthiest in contents. I also found this idea on pinterest where someone placed a $1 in a jar every time they worked out so thats my new thing to do for getting to the gym. I am going to just make a chart and mark off every time I make it there then hopefully I'll stay committed. So in a sense I am paying myself to work out - I figure whatever it takes I do love going to cycling and body blitz class however the problem is my boys seem to always have something going on every other week that prevents me from putting them in the nursery while I work out, so I am praying they stay healthier so in turn mommy can become healthier.

This weekend my husband and I got a RARE day out with no kids when you have three little ones its not easy to get out without at least 1 of them so generally we have little Andrew with us but he just turned 2 and those terrible two tantrums are coming out so if we take him along we don't eat anywhere nice or go anywhere without rushing. So Saturday was a real treat we took a long drive and hit up several antique stores my favorite was one that looked like a junk store they are the BEST for finding things to fix up for cheap. I have several ideas I am collecting things for. So at this little dive of a place I bought an antique window and an old picture frame there is no glass in it but thats perfect I have plans for it. The following day I got an afternoon out with my mother in law and husbands aunt and yep we went to antique stores because I just love some of the looks you can get with old stuff. I scored with an old ladder. Now if I would only get going on taking down the tree and Christmas decorations so I can play around with a new decor look for my mantel and work on my antique window project.

I'll post pictures soon of my projects as they come together .. I have about 20 projects on the go in addition to the ones above I am making some swags for my bedroom windows, some pillows and changing some pictures to feature some fabric I found. We will have to see how everything comes along ..

We have also extended the ready2ship sale on etsy so dont forget to check out the ready2ships on sale. Not sure how long I'll keep the sale extended for but its just a little thank you for a great 2011 and to help out customers since I know the economy makes purchasing those birthday goodies a little tougher.

Hope you have a great 2012 and will continue to follow our blog and facebook pages!

A little sweetness for Valentines!

Good Morning Followers:

This morning I went out to get a few things and well its only 3 days after Christmas but you better believe that Valentines Day Cards are already out!

Getting Back in the Groove!!

Hello Blog Followers:

Well I have to say I am a little embarassed to admit that I haven't posted on my blog ALL YEAR! So this year I am "planning" (notice I said planning) to get into a weekly schedule of posting to the Blog. In the past I found I just can't talk about tutus all the time, love my business but there is so much more to my life these days. With three kids now 6, 4, 2 life gets hectic at times. Right now only one of them is in school and yes I work my business around life with the other two so I can be a stay at home mom.

So this year the blog will become more than just tutus!!! I want to do posts on great ideas .. speaking of that do you pinterest?? If not, check out
http://www.pinterest.com/ I am VERY addicted!! Posts will cover everything from tutu sales and giveaways, new designs, other great mom businesses, wonderful DIY projects that I try because who doesn't want to learn how to make new things. Other posts might include new recipes I try I have to admit since we designed our kitchen and I have a double oven and fantastic set up I LOVE cooking so I want to let you know about easy recipes and especially those that the kids LOVE. Lastly, lets talk about deals .. if you know me personally then you know I love a deal, I coupon and watch for deals all the time so occasionally I'll chat on my struggles to keep couponing and saving money on groceries and toiletries .. its hard to do and requires organization and sometimes I do really good and then sometimes I slack off.

I would also love to have some guest bloggers thats right? Do you have something interesting you would like to share? Send me an email and I'd love to hear from you - perhaps its the way you organize your coupons or on a party you threw together (I love planning parties) or anything else ..

So as the 2011 year comes to an end I have to think how grateful I am for my family, my husband who works so hard for our family my three kids and our extended families. I am also grateful for the wonderful teachers at my daughters school we have been blessed with such a great group of teachers at our local primary school I love helping there and I also plan to post ideas related to learning in the future. (PS check out this blog
http://weeklyhive.blogspot.com/ )

This holiday season be sure to thank someone for what they have done in your life this year!

To end out the year we are having a fabulous sale on ready2ships in our etsy store for $20 ... custom orders are regular pricing but thats a deal on ready2ships and we have over 50 in stock and ready in an assortment of sizes.

http://www.etsy.com/shop/HannahsTutus

Don't forget to coordinate a top or pair of bloomers with your tutu, my long time friend Kerry does such a fabulous job on her products we have worked together for about 4 years now coordinating outfits. Her main site is
http://www.bellaclairebaby.com/ and she keeps a great inventory of ready2ships in the etsy store for those of you ordering last minute.

So until next week ..

Giveaway week of August 9th thru Sunday 15th



Well as the summer comes to a close we will only have a few more weekly giveaways BUT
we will still do specials and giveaways once a month or so. It's been fun and this week I decided to change it up to a bright and fun tutu before the last few giveaways (which are Halloween sets!!)
Our cupcake splash Tutu was created to match a 1st Birthday set that Target offers online
one of my good friends was having her little girls party done in this theme so I took the napkin and created.. then of course asked my friend Kerry to make an adorable set of bloomers to match...
So after we created we decided to have Misty at http://www.mistyjonesphotography.com/ shoot some shots of this set and offer it. The tutu features red - purple - yellow - and teal.. so quite a different mix of colors its finished with a red bow. The size we have for the lucky winner is a 18.5 starting waist with the 8/9 length.
This adorable tutu would be great for any little girl in the 1-2 yr range
(give or take depending on their waist size)

Are you ready for Fall?
I know I am! I love the fall - I feel like we have been stuck inside all summer

haven't gotten out too much (our little red headed baby sure isnt a fan of the heat)
So I am ready for cooler days so I can get outside with the kids
and let them run some energy off.
Not to mention the Fall is one of the best time to do photos in my opinion,
trees changing, pumpkin patches, just love it.
As we finish up our summer of giveaways we will do a few different giveaways
to help our customers get into Fall and Halloween!

This week I am giving away a Sweet Fall Tutu as shown in the beautiful

The winners are...


Thanks to all that participated... we only have a few giveaways left for our summer giveaway time so if you haven't tried to enter yet - its not too late. I'll be posting the next giveaway later today!!

Last week we asked you to submit ideas for either a witch tutu or fairy tutu - to complete the look we said we would include a pair of wings and/or witch hat to match for the winner ~ the winning person gets their look created for them (within the limits of our supplies on hand). So I look forward to creating a set for each of these winners based on the idea they presented with what I am able to do!

This week I choose to have 2 winners, 1 selected randomly by http://www.random.org/ and the other selected with the help of one of my favorite photographers (http://www.mistyjonesphotography.com/).

Congrats to our winners, I will be contacting you within the next day to get some sizing details so be sure to measure those little ones waists, the winner can have a tutu up to a 20 inch starting waist and max length of 10/11. Winning custom items will take up to 14 business days to be made along with 3 addtl days to ship to you.

Our random winner is:

Poster #13 (rem our instruction post counts as post #1) A Lyons...
My second idea would be a rainbow sherbet fairy. Tutu with lemon and a hint of hot pink and citrus tulle. Tutu could also be embellished with ribbons in those colors as well. Wings in lemon with some sparkle in them.

Our selected winner for their idea is:

Poster S Bailey ...
Idea - My favorite flower is the Stargazer Lily so I would base a Lily Fairy on this - the tutu would have dusty rose tulle and white for the petals. Maybe a few lemon pieces for the stamen and depth. Pink wings and of course of lily on a headband.

Congratulations to all there were many many great ideas!!

Week of July 26th Giveaway..

We only have a few more weeks of our summer giveaways .. and I changed the day to announce them on .. Friday was such a hard day for me (busy wise) to get things going ... so I took this week to change the day of the week we will announce our giveaway on ...

So starting this week the giveaways will always start on the MONDAY of the week .. and finish on the Sunday evenings at 11:59 pm CST. Again, like on Friday's the time we post the giveaway will vary (please keep in mind that I work sometimes in the day and sometimes in the evening to accomodate my kiddies schedules and my college helpers school schedule... so I won't guarantee a post by 8 am every Monday or announcing the winner by that day on the noon ... but it will be done every Monday ...).

In the last few weeks of our summer giveaways we will have a few fall and Halloween items lined up.

I don't know how you liked last weeks design a witch tutu but I loved it!! So after getting some feedback I am going to do something different than I had originally planned for this week's giveaway and this will most likely be the last giveaway that is like this as I already have the remaining giveaways planned..


Week of July 26th Giveaway Contest for:
Design your own Witch TUTU or Fairy TUTU
I know not everyone likes their little ones dressed as witches but I had so
many comments from fans last week loving the witch contest that I decided to
repeat but with 2 options for ideas.. so enter in the idea that you want to win..
(This giveaway is for a DESIGN YOUR TUTU ONLY - meaning we are looking for your color ideas that would be fabulous for these costumes.. feel free to mention add ons for the tutus (however some may not be possible depending on our supplies) or witch hat ideas HOWEVER please remember the contest is for the tutu idea only .. (the witch hat will be made to match from our supplies and the fairy wings will be the color of our choice based on what we have in stock that matches with your tutu creation)
You can look at our colors at:
The winner can custom choose the sizing of their tutu - sizing must be a waist of 20 inches or less and no more than a 10/11 length - winners please allow 14 business days from the time you confirm your sizing for us to make - then shipping time to you.
In addition I will actually allow two winners this week... this is a HUGE thing ...
so I will pick one winner as always from http://www.random.org/ and generally I don't like to
pick an idea ... but myself along with one of the photographers
I work with will select the 2nd winner based from an idea that we love!!
So PLEASE read how to post for this contest so your entry will be valid!

So here are the rules..... please read them in full, last week I had to delete several posts on the discussion board since they were not posted correctly. It is very important that you post correctly to avoid having your post deleted.
Please post your entries on our facebook page under the discussions tab:
Each of the below gets you one ENTRY to post with - in that ENTRY please provide the info below requested AND your idea in that post. There can only be one idea in your post so you must decide if you want to enter a WITCH idea or a FAIRY idea. Please do not enter 1 idea for each in one post. ALL IDEAS MUST BE POSTED IN THE APPROPIATE DISCUSSION AREA TO BE CONSIDERED.
(1) All fans get the opportunity for 1 idea post ... just post in THE DISCUSSIONS TAB a witch tutu idea (yes you can use your idea from last week if you didn't win) OR post a fairy tutu idea.
(2) Become a fan of Bella Claire Baby on facebook, and earn an addtl entry - please post that you have become a fan of BCB and then post 1 idea again choose whether to submit a witch or a fairy idea.
(3) Give a cute Halloween Party Idea (Games, Decor, Food etc) in a post and then in the same post you may post a 3rd idea of either a witch or a fairy.
(4) Finally a 4th entry is available for all customers that have purchased during the month of JULY 2010, you MUST POST that you purchased, the name purchased under and then your idea in that post again only one idea so choose between a witch or fairy.
SO this will be asked... if you have 3 entries ... you can submit 2 witch ideas and 1 fairy idea... but only 1 idea per a post.
Have FUN!

Lets design a witch for...

I know you have probably been waiting all day for me to post the winner for the Design a witch tutu giveaway we did this week! I am a little behind on things this week and today, because a few days ago one of my kids broke out... what started as a few spots on the face evolved to spots all over and a chicken pox diagnosis. They "say" if you get this and you have had the vaccine it "should" be milder, well his face is absolutely covered and all the rest of his body. So my 3 yr old is a little miserable and this is also preventing me from getting into my studio as much as I normally do (dont worry its a NO chicken pox zone!!). Anyway it shouldnt affect make times .. they may be at the longer end of the range for the next week or two ..but since we can't go anywhere I'll probably try and work in the studio some extra this weekend to help with the work time I am missing to snuggle with the unhappy boy. Just hoping my 7 mth old doesn't show up with this (he isn't old enough for the vaccine) ... and hopefully it will skip Hannah. We have laughed and said our luck will be on day 8 of Mr C's another child will start with it, then on day 8 of that just when we think we can escape to public again another child will get it.

So needless to say I am normally answering replys right away and have been a little ahead of the make time but this unexpected sickness is slowing me down a little.

I definetly had fun reading all the witch ideas.. many were elaborate the giveaway was for a custom witch tutu you pick the colors and ribbons ideas (so there were many ideas that went into more detail with extras that I just don't keep around so if your idea is choosen the tutu will be made as close to the idea within the parameters of what we have supply wise and what the giveaway stated as far as design (you pick colors and we do the ribbons) also many gave elaborate design ideas for the witches hats again I'll try and make as close for the winner but the giveaway does state it will be made to match the tutu colors with our fancy look that we normally do so some things I will not be able to do with the supplies we keep at hand... just wanted to mention since there were definetly some amazing ideas but Halloween supplies are so hard to keep in stock that every year I decide on specific designs/items to offer and thats what I offer .. with living 30-45 + minutes from most stores I don't always have the luxury to special shop for designs (like I used to) now that I have 3 little ones and work this business full time... so I hope the winner will love what I design based on their idea posted).

We also had to delete a few entries - if they weren't posted as the blog and discussion rules mentioned to be fair and not have extra entries we had to delete :(

So the winner chosen from http://www.random.org/ this week is:

Facebook Discussion Post #12!!!.....................Chris Colbert-Kelly

The idea posted was:

My first and favorite idea is a Sassy Witch. She would have the shades mostly of Hot Pink but also Black, Lavender and Melon. top it off with Polka Dot ribbons! Her hat would consist of tulle and Polka Dot Ribbons and a Big Hot Pink Bow!! Sassy and Classy!

We will be contacting you shortly for sizing please remember the tutu can be made to any waist size 20 inches or less and up to a 10/11 length !!!

Thanks to all that entered our next giveaway will be posted shortly and well we only have a few more weeks of giveaways so now more than ever you will want to keep up with what we have in our giveaway since there will be a Halloween set with matching bloomers and a fall tutu with matching bloomers and a few more cute items to be won over the next few weeks.

Friday, July 16, 2010

Check out the new exciting giveaway!!!

I make it no secret that I LOVE Halloween ... me and my kids are already talking on a possible family costume .. one child likes to say we will be the Incredibles ... I am not opposed but I certaintly have a hard time envisioning me and my husband wearing a unitard for the evening.. one wants us to be all Star Wars people .. another the characters from Yo Gabba Gabba.. I am undecided last year we waited until the last minute and I was putting together the final touches for my husbands Scarecrow costume and my mean witch (I was VERY pregnant and a witches dress was about the only costume easier enough to accomodate my large belly) on Halloween day.. I have to say our costumes will probably be done last minute again this year. (Ironic, as I tell my customers order early to avoid the rush....)

My favorite costumes this year are all the little witches I am offering, I LOVE making witches we are offering about 7 or so witches designs .. BUT customers can also custom create their own witch look all I need to know is the colors you want and I can make a set perfect to your little girls color preferences. So don't feel as though you are bound to the colors of the witch sets I show .. if you want to create your own look always feel free to email me info@hannahstutus.com .

So this week the giveaway is going to be pretty BIG!!! I kept going back and forward and decided that so many of our fans and customers love the witches .. that ...

We needed to do a witch giveaway!!! YES YOU READ THAT RIGHT... SO HERE'S THE DETAILS ...

Think of how you would like to see a little witch done (colors) do you want just fancy ribbons or the modern big polka dot ribbons the mod witch set offers... then we want to know ... all posts must be made in our discussions area on facebook. We will then custom create the winning witch idea for that person ... the tutu can be custom made up to a 20 inch waist and up to a 10/11 waist. We will make a witches hat to compliment the look of the witch tutu for the winner..

**Please note that the witches hat will be made to compliment the look with flowers and greenery tulle and ribbons only.

THIS IS AN INCREDIBLE GIVEAWAY!!!

I'll even fancy up the top layers with tied ribbons for the winner .. the ribbon bow will be in a soft lavender color. This will fit most 1-2 yr olds you could use on those sitting 6-12 mth olds and it will stretch to fit those little 2-3 yr olds... But even if you dont have one .. try and win for a gift!! Little girls love to get these .. I'll even gift tag for the winner if needed ..

So check the entry rules below ... then go to our discussions tab on our facebook page LOOK FOR THE July 9th - July 15th Giveaway Discussion and post your entries in there
