The Mom Buzz about Olive Kids
Erin writer of the Mom Buzz shares her thought on Olive Kids!
When my son turned 3, his grandmother bought him a new bedroom set. It's gorgeous, with a "cabin" feel to it. It even has a tent-like canopy on the twin bed. Well, since I only had toddler bedding stuff, I needed to update.
At first I was thinking of going the character route, especially since my son LOVES super heroes. But it just didn't complement the new bedroom set. Then I remembered Olive Kids. I decided to go there and check it out. I fell in love with the non-character selections for boys, with fun themes like Space, Cowboys, Pirates and more. I decided to buy the Ride 'em Twin Bedbox, because the cowboy print would surely complement his new room!
The Ride 'em Twin Bedbox set includes a fitted comforter, fitted sheet, straight sheet, bedskirt, pillowcase and sham. When it came in I realized that the bedskirt would not fit correctly his style of bed. Bummer. And the comforter, with its prefolded end, needs to be pushed down to fit on his bed correctly. It's called a "Hugger". It is reversible, with the other side being a red paisley pattern.
The sheetset fit wonderfully! It has wonderful cream color with red trim and a pattern of cowboys, cacti, covered wagons, and campfires decorating it. The pillowcase has a coordinating red paisley hem that is folded and sewn. And the sham was a red paisley pattern, perfectly complementing the sheets. The sheets are 100% Percale Cotton, 210 thread count.
When all is said and done, it looks fabulous!
Olive Kids gave me a wonderful opportunity to review a personalized item from their shop, suggesting their new framed prints. I visited and thought the Ride 'em Cowboy print would truly complement his new bedding! In fact, you will find personalized prints to match all of their bedding - but it will also fit in wonderfully if you buy it by itself. They have mermaids, pirate ships, planes and more to choose from!
When it came in, with a black wooden frame, it had his name printed on it. It was such a surprise for him and looks great hanging in his room! The print is pretty big, measuring 18.5 x 24.5.
Honestly, I could go wild completely finishing his room with coordinating pieces, like draw pulls, throws, rugs, wallies and more. And with bedding sets in sizes from toddler to Queen, you can count on finding what you want in the size you need. (I was so annoyed when some of those character sets that I was considering prior only came in toddler or full! What about twin?)
The entire experience with Olive Kids has been wonderful and you can be sure I will be back to buy my second son's bedroom set, as well. This time I am thinking pirates!

Rain Rain Go Away
We are dreaming of Summer BBQ's and most importantly Sunshine here in New Hampshire!
So far this month it has rained 16 out of the last 25 days - we didn't have any rain the first week of June - so basically it has been raining everyday since June 8th! We had a terrible winter (ice storms and record cold) so we were hoping to have a hot sunny summer instead we went from having weather like Alaska to having weather like Seattle... we are still hoping for weather like the bahamas!
The last BBQ's I went to, the cook (my wonderful brother-in-law Bob) had rigged up an umbrella to keep himself dry while he cooked our steaks and grilled corn on the cob. Because it was raining and everyone had to eat inside I wanted to bring some extra fun to the BBQ so I was surprised everyone with a personalized summer placemat; they were the perfect place setting and conversation piece!
After everyone finished eating we went around the table telling our favorite beach story from when we were a little kid. It was great and I loved when my 16 year old son told this story - it was about a very sunny day in July, he was about 7 years old.
I had gone away on a business trip to Newport RI and while I was there I found this wonderful kite shop. I looked around the store for a long time and finally decided to purchase a kite shaped like a dolphin for him. I also bought all the streamers and fun attachments you could add to the string as the kite got higher and higher in the sky.
He was so excited when I gave him the kite that we jumped into the car and drove to Plum Island. We spent hours trying to get that kite up in the sky. When we finally did it was amazing; we flew it till the sun started to set, we didn't want to let it come down because we spent so much time trying to get that kite up in the air. We went out for dinner, talked about our adventure and finished the night off we a special ice cream treat!
It is amazing the memories you can share when you start the conversation with a question to everyone! Mine started with our Personalized Sand Castle Placemats! You can start your summer conversation using our fun personalized sand castle placemats or if you are having a fun 4th of July BBQ with or without sunshine we made some special placemats just for Independence Day!
Remember to enjoy your family and to share special memories!
Happy Independence Day - 4th of July to one and all!

Memories of Summer Reading
Believe it or not school will soon be out for the summer here in New Hampshire. It's later than usual because we had terrible ice storms that took out our electricity, causing schools to closed for more than a week.
At first kids were excited that they didn't have to go to school for another week (it was on the end of winter vacation) but when they realized school would have to last longer in the summer they were not happy.
I can still remember when the bell rang at the end of the day, on the last day of school before summer vacation - it was so exciting. Summertime meant riding our bikes everywhere, hanging out with our cousins, going to the beach with my parents, and staying out till the street lights came on - the good old days.
One my best memories is when we would get one of those steaming hot nights (we didn't have air conditioning) and sleeping was impossible. So my parents would load all 5 kids into the station wagon (you know the one with the fake wood paneling) and we would drive to the beach and lay under the weeping willow tree. My parents would read stories to us until we fell asleep, bookmarking the place they left off for our next night time visit. Then they would pick us up sound asleep and put us into the cars and then into our beds. As each of us got older we took turns doing the reading and helping to pick up our younger siblings! I believe that is one of the main reasons I love to read today!
I can still remember what the bookmark looked like and how excited we were to begin where we had left off the last time we read together.
You can help your kids get the love of reading by getting them their very own personalized bookmark or have one made with your family name for time spent reading together. Loving to read will help your kids in school, it will build up their imagination and you will never hear the words I am bored because they always have an adventure at their finger tips. We have designs for everyone in the family! Priced at only $8.99 it's an easy inexpensive way to help them nurture their love for reading.

J. Leigh Designz with Olive Kids
Jennifer wrote to me telling me that she had designed her son room around our Out of This World Theme and wanted to share it with us! I asked her if she would review our frame art (because that is just about the only thing she didn't already purchase) so we could get her opinion! She said yes and this is what she has to say about all of the Out of This World collection! She took a sad moment in their life and make it special for her kids - your a wonderful mom Jennifer!
"If you are looking for a way to decorate your child's room in a fun and stylish theme then you need to look no further then Olive Kids! They have fun styles like Sports, Tea Pots & Polka Dots, Cowboys, and many more!
When our family lost our home to a fire 2 years ago I was back to square one with the boys rooms. My oldest had the coolest glow in the dark moon and stars room that was discontinued and I could no longer purchase or replace. My youngest who was 6 months old at the time had a stunning nursery that had a rare collection of Little Suzy's Zoo collector items that took years to collect. So I knew both were rooms that I had to start over from scratch with.
Since it took a year to rebuild our home I wasn't interested in putting my son back into a cutesy nursery. He was 18 months but he was still in a crib so I needed options. I needed something that could go from crib to toddler to young child. I am the type of person that takes a theme and takes it to the extreme. So, I was willing to spend the money if I could find something that I really liked. So, over the year it took to rebuild I looked into every website and every store for a fire truck bedroom theme. I thought it would be kind of ironic to put a fire engine bedroom theme into our house. I had trouble finding what I liked but because of THIS set I found Olive Kids! The set had more then fire trucks so I started to peek around the site and I stumbled upon a rocketship and planets theme called Out Of This World.
I. was. in. love. instantly.
I knew this was the set Gavin had to have! Plus, since they carried the set in both toddler, twin, full, and queen sizes I knew the set could grow with him. I was able to put the toddler set into the crib for use while he was still in his crib.

We have an out of this world customer!
The Reynolds family had a blast decorating their son's room with Olive Kids Out of This World bedding and room decor! I think you'll agree they did an amazing job!
From Andrea:
I just wanted to send in some pictures of my son's adorable new big boy room! He loves all of his Olive Kids Out Of This World products and we are thrilled with how the room turned out. Even though you guys do not have the Wallies available at this time, I was not to be deterred! I bought the coordinating wallpaper border and cut out the shapes. I then put a small amount of wallpaper paste on the backs, stuck them on, and wiped them down with a wet rag to get out the bubbles. They look so adorable! And, it completed the room just like I envisioned. Thanks Olive Kids for making such cute designs and helping me make a truly special room for my Olive Kid.
Sincerely,
Andrea Reynolds

I mom writes us to tell us
That she did a blog post about her purchase of our dinosaurland bedding, here is what Terri from my brand name baby has to say about Olive Kids:
"STAT.....that's how quickly I need to learn the pronunciations of all the dinosaurs' names. (And, based on how hard it was for me to spell pronunciations, I'm thinking I'm in trouble.) My daughter has taken an interest in the prehistoric set, and I find myself shopping for the big, ugly creatures, when I could be hanging out in Strawberry Shortcake-land. Case in point, we were looking in the toy section of our local superstore last week and when we walked by the barbies, she gave them a cursory glance and said "pretty". Then, she spotted a huge, horrible, dinosaur skeleton from across toy section, and took off running. Her eyes were as big as saucers, and she said "beautiful".
So, being the good Mom I'm trying to be, I'm looking for all things dinosaur. My first stop is one of my favorite shops, Olive Kids. They have 96 items listed in their Dinosaurland and I feel like I've struck gold! Even I have to admit, the Toddler Bed Set is really fun and while you are there, a personalized placemat is a must.
Olive Kids has many themes to choose from, so there is something for every parent's (I mean child's) taste. Stop by and spend some time looking at Olive Kids today.
Now, I'm off to find a dictionary....."
Thanks Teri we are so glad you and your son loved his new Olive Kids Dinosaurland Bedding!

Spring is here in New Hampshire
I orginally posted this on the official first day of Spring but as I was driving into work today with the view of Mt Monadnock (without any snow on it) I decided that I should update it.
Now that Spring has arrived in New Hampshire...
Here are my updated top ten things Spring in New Hampshire means to me!
1. Melting snow (hopefully) The snow is all gone!!!
2. Snow Storms (hopefully not - last year we had one on April 1st) Pheww we made it without any more snow
3. Crocuses trying to push up from under the snow They are now in full bloom with tulips on the way
4. Frost Heaves (do you even know what those are? they make traveling on roads a bumpy adventure!) Still a pretty bumpy road
5. Lots of MUD (we call it mud season) Mud Mud is everywhere
6. Large mud puddles that switch back and forth from liquid to ice - had ice this morning will be 60 this afternoon...that's New Hampshire
7. Wild Turkeys crossing the road on a blind curve while your driving - the deer are out on the roads and we have seen a mamma bear with her two baby cubs in our friends yard
8. Fishing season begins (hopefully the ice has melted by then) - It's official "Ice Out" has happened and my husband caught his first fish - a salmon! It was delicious!
9. Time to sweep up all the sand off the roads and driveways (it always amazes me how much there is) - wow do the streets look good without all the sand!
10. The best for last ....it means that the grass will be green again, leaves will once again be on the trees and sunny days will soon be here! The grass is greener, you can see the buds on the trees ...and it's time to start working on the garden
That is what Spring is all about here in New Hampshire and I love each and every one (except for the late snowstorms)
