Okay, so I am completely overhauling my website myself. It is a total work in progress and trust me my expertise is sewing not webdesign.

That being said.... can all of my faithful helpers please check it out and let me know what you think?

Does it grab your attention?

Is it easy to figure out what I sell immediately?

Is it easy to navigate?

Does it make you want to buy anything?

What can I change to make it better?


Trust me you will not hurt my feelings.

ThankS!!!!!

It has been way to long since I have posted but I have been slammed with orders and now I am taking local orders as well. I finally had to hire someone to help put snaps on, ship and label things.

Anyway! All is well.... how are all of my fellow cloth diaper-ers doing? I hope you are all well...


Here is the deal.... I know I don't have time for giveaways and blog reviews and stuff.... but.... I do have a new idea for a really cool trainer pant that I am going to be testing very soon. No promise on the date since I am so busy but I really want to try it out so if you are willing to be a patient tester email me.

I am also wanting to try my hand at making wet bags to match the dipes and flannel or minky backed wipes.... I am new to the two things so if anyone has any suggestions or hints that is great please let me know! I need all the info I can get....

I will be blogging about how you can earn free kookabums and wraps in my next blog so stay posted.

Hoooray! I had my first review giveaway done this week on one of my kookawraps. (if you are wanting to review my dipes please message me as I am FINALLY caught up and I probably lost your information in the midst of my snap press issues) I really enjoyed this experience and I am really stoked to do some more reviews/giveaways.

You can see the review and enter the giveaway at....




Thank you Tina and I hope you continue to enjoy the wrap!

I am dreaming of sleep. Lol, one of the hazards of having your own business and being a full-time mommy. It is very rewarding though. I am so excited! I have been doing an incredible amount of business. I am getting ready to make Kookabear Kids an LLC. That is a big step for me.

My snap press broke but I have it all fixed and I am ready to go now. Of course, my snap company delayed my shipment of snaps so I won't be able to go into full speed production again until Friday...

Speaking of production....

If you have been wanting to do a review or giveaway with me please send me your information once more. I have been terribly neglectful of all of you and I am terribly sorry I keep putting you off. My orders have been coming in so fast every time I think I can get that extra diaper or two out to you I have to put it in an order.

I actually have a couple extra dipes in my new design so I am really anxious to get them out to you. I am really glad that I get to send you my revised dipe instead of the other. I LOVE IT. In fact, it is so unique that I am in the process of trying to get certain parts of it patented. :)

Enough business stuff..... how boring! I promise my next post will be so much more fun.

Now.... of to ZZZZZ.....zzzzz.....zzzzz

More Diapers!!!

I am swamped with order but I guess that is great right? I am still trying to get caught up from the holidays. Get some orders out for reviews. Make some new diapers to take pics of and list... if I use these for the reviews I can kill two birds with one stone...hmmm... Update my website, update etsy, facebook, blog, tweet, make more diapers....lol I love it though! I just changed the make of my diapers. I love it and the changes make a huge improvement. I am constantly changing my design to perfect it. I don't know what I will do for sure after Liberty is potty trained. She is 18 months so that isn't too far off. How will I test all my new tweeks and ideas? :)

Did I mention in the meantime my son's 7th birthday is this Sunday... Here we come Chucky E. Cheese. They do everything for you for 50 bucks plus 10 bucks for a cake. You get a truck load of stuff too. If you need a quick, easy, pretty cheap birthday go here. Just check out the place first because some are nicer than others. I am excited. I actually love going to there and playing all of the games.
It is also exciting because we are picking up Caleb to spend the weekend with us.

Well that is all I have time for now. I have to go sew. Have a happy day!

Okay, I would love to start doing give aways and sending out test diapers to all of you wonderful mommies who read my blog.

How do I do this? I am so clueless...... HELP!!!!!

Here is my idea.... if you know a pretty fair amount of info on how to drive some traffic to your blog and do free giveaways, etc..... I would love to work with you and maybe even send you some free product......

Also, am in desperate need of new product testers. My little one to the right is almost out of diapers so I won't be able to use her for a guinea pig forever. I have recently switched from pul to a brand new material for the lining of my diapers that has it's own built in, super thin, waterproof layer and is super absorbent all on it's own to prevent against leaks like no other when used with our soakers! I am also switching fro microfiber inserts to ZORB. I need to test these on different sized babies, wash and dry many times, etc....


I am always up for ideas!
Thanks!

Today is a snow day. You know, one of those days when your kids wake up at the crack of dawn even though you have to drag them out of bed any other school day. They rush to the windows in hopes that enough snow has fallen to prompt the call (dreaded by me of course) that school is canceled for the day.

The kids are rushing around as I type looking for their snow suits, boots, and gloves so they can go play outside. Their sleds are buried somewhere under the white puffy mounds of fun outside that await them.

Once the roads clear maybe we will drive to the park where there are some bigger hills and they can have some real fun. :)

I am actually enjoying my time with them today. Watching them bounce happily in their oversized clothes. They won't be little for long.

I hope that my customers who are waiting patiently on their diaper orders will understand. There is no way I can miss these beautiful moments and hide away down in my work studio sewing. I can't make it through the snow into town and to the Post Office anyhow.

It really is beautiful out.

What a wonderful, lazy, snow daze :)
