Baby & Mommy Must-haves Event #8: Cafe Press Review & $50 Coupon Code Giveaway

No matter what occasion I'm looking to buy a gift for...the holidays, birthdays, baby showers, etc....I am always on the lookout for something unique and special. That's why I'm so thankful for CafePress and find myself turning to them many times throughout the year.

And...if you can't find it or are looking for personalized gifts, you can create your own design! Simply upload an image, and CafePress does the rest.

I came across CafePress a couple of years ago when I was pregnant with our son. I wanted to find Kaelyn a "Big Sister" t-shirt that she could wear around our families to announce that we were expecting baby #2. CafePress had a fantastic selection of tees, even those that I could personalize with her name on it. From then on, I knew I would be visiting their site often...and I was right! I have found great gifts and items for our family thanks to their large selection of products to choose from. Whether it's a man, woman, or child you're buying for...CafePress is sure to suit them perfectly.
With baby #3 due to arrive next month and having family members and friends who are also expecting, I've been enjoying visiting CafePress and finding great baby and mommy must-haves. I couldn't have been more excited to learn we were going to have the opportunity to review a few of their great products for this event!

CafePress sent us their Pink Butterfly Big Sister Tee, Big Brother Baseball Tee, My Brother & Sister Love Me Teddy Bear and My 1st Thanksgiving Long Sleeve Onesie!

When the products arrived, I was really looking forward to checking them out.

As always, CafePress did not disappoint! The Big Sister Tee and Big Brother Tee caught my eye first. The quality is fantastic, and each of them suit the personalities of Kaelyn and Kaden perfectly.

I love that you can choose from several colors for the tees, making it that much more unique and special too. Kaelyn loves pink and Kaden wears a lot of blue, so I chose those two colors and am really happy with the result. Both shirts are absolutely adorable.

The kids have worn them a couple of times, but I now have them put away until baby #3 arrives next month. I thought it would be special and fun for them to wear them to hospital when they come to meet their new baby brother or sister for the first time.

And, we couldn't leave the baby out! CafePress has so many cute onesies for babies. Since there's a good chance we'll be taking our little one home from the hospital on Thanksgiving, I thought the My 1st Thanksgiving Long Sleeve Onesie would be absolutely perfect.

I went with white since we don't know the gender of the baby, but there were a few other choices too which I appreciated. As with the other two tees, this onesie is made very well and something I can tell will hold up to washings and wear. I am really looking forward to seeing our baby in this adorable shirt! The fact that it's long sleeves couldn't be more perfect either...as it will be quite cold here by the time he/she arrives.

When Kaden was born, Kaelyn really wanted to give him a gift at the hospital. She and her daddy went out and brought him back a teddy bear which he still has and loves to this day. I thought it would be fun if she and Kaden could do the same for this baby when they come to visit us in the hospital next month. Browsing around CafePress I found a lot of cute things, but the moment I saw the My Brother & Sister Love Me Teddy Bear, I knew it would be the PERFECT gift from them. I mean, how cute is this?!

I knew the shirts would be good quality, as we've owned several from CafePress over the years. However...I wasn't sure what to expect when it came to a stuffed animal. Thankfully, I was not disappointed! This Teddy Bear is not only extremely plush and cuddly, but it is also a really nice size...measuring in at 11 inches!

Of course, the thing I love most about this adorable teddy bear is the message on his tee. Kaelyn and Kaden are SO excited to meet their new baby brother or sister and this shirt really expresses how much they already love him or her.

Although this makes a wonderful gift for a new baby, it would also be a fun birthday gift for a sibling, get well-wishes, etc. It's really perfect for many occasions.

As you can see...CafePress really has a great variety of products to offer. These are just a few that I found when browsing their items for baby and children...but the sky is really the limit! There's also a lot of fun things for moms like keepsake boxes, photo mugs, personalized totes and more. These are just some of the many unique and personalized products available. I'd definitely recommend heading over to CafePress to see more!
