Things I Love Thursday- Baby Star (Giveaway!!)

I am clearly in giveaway mode around here. I love giving my readers great gifts! If you haven’t entered them all check back over the last few days cause there is a great one waiting for you to enter. And I have another great one today.

I first discovered Baby Star when someone was tweeting about a giveaway for some of their baby products. When I clicked over to their website, I was immediately in love. Their products are very hip and trendy. In a world of lame-o products that are geared for the baby and not the mama, I love this philosophy. Cause the baby isn’t carrying the diaper bag so I don’t want cutesy, I want hip. Just because I had a baby doesn’t mean I can’t still be me.

One of my favorite things about them is that a lot of their products coordinate so you can match your diaper bag, burp cloth, blanket, and even outfits. I have fallen in love with a few of their patterns so this is perfect for me. Plus, all of baby star’s products are made out of combinations of 100% cotton and formaldehyde-free fabrics, making them safe for baby and the environment.

I have a poodle blanket from them and seriously want this thing for myself. It is the softest, cuddliest blanket ever. I lay Silas on it and just can’t help but snuggle in there with him. And Baby Star is generously giving one of my readers their very own poodle blanket. They are made of the softest fabric trimmed with fun prints for boy, girl or gender neutral.

To enter (you MUST leave a separate comment for each entry):

• Head over to Baby Star and let me know what your favorite item is. (MANDATORY)
• Participate in my Things I Love Thursday carnival and link up below. Then leave a comment letting me know you did so. Guidelines for participation can be found here.
• Sign up for the Baby Star newsletter (lower left corner of their home page)
• Become a fan of Baby Star on Facebook
• Follow Baby Star on Twitter
• Follow The Diaper Diaries on Twitter and tweet about this contest. Leave a link to your tweet.

There you go. Up to six chances to win. The contest will run through next Wednesday night, November 4th. Good luck and can’t wait to hear what you love!!

Disclosure: I was not financially compensated in any way for this review. I was provided with a blanket for review purposes, but as usual all opinions about the products are mine alone.

    I like the quick change diaper pouch. I’m moving my two year old out of the diaper bag, since she’s in the nursery at church and the new baby will be with me, so this is a great idea for her. She doesn’t need all the accouterments of a full diaper bag at this stage and is learning to potty train, but still needs an occasional changing.
