IRL.. In Real Life Part 1

It’s one thing to see some new product in the store or online but it’s another thing to see how they are used In Real Life (IRL).  So I thought I would post some pics on a few products our family is using around the house.

Clairebella Large Cutting Board

We’ll start out with the products I love so unexpectedly.   First up is this beautiful personalized cutting board from Clairebella that never leaves the kitchen counter!  We use it throughout the day, from cutting morning fruit to dinner salads.  It looks gorgeous on our counter top.   It comes in two sizes, the large cutting board sells for $50 and the small one sells for $38. It is the perfect hostess gift and can be personalized to anyone style and color preference.  Click here to buy

Kelly Hughes Harlequin Platter

My daughter had her 4th Birthday Party last week and wanted to take some cookies to Ballet Camp to celebrate.   So I took out  my Kelly Hughes Harlequin platter and put some Frog Prince Cookies on it to celebrate!  It made a lovely presentation.  Platters are all personalized and come in a variety of colors and styles.  They are a great buy at $38.  Click here to buy

Mayfly and Junebug Waterproof Labels

I’ve been using these waterproof labels from Mayfly & Junebug on the kids items for two years now.  Hundreds of washings and they still look pretty good.   I’m going to post a pic of a newish label next to one that is 2 years old, so you can see and compare.   I am so impressed how well the Mayfly and Junebug labels have held up.  And if you are really wondering how many labels I have IRL.. well I have Mabels Labels, Stuck on You and Mayfly and Junebug.  So far the Mayfly and Junebug labels have held up the best.  The Mabels Labels and Stuck on You have faded… see the blue bottle below.

So I give the Waterproof Labels from Mayfly & Junebug two thumbs up!   Click here to buy

Clairebella Personalized Melamine Tray

I adore this personalized tray from Clairebella.  While it gets it uses for drinks and cocktails on the deck, I have to admit it gets more use these days for modeling clay and keeping the moon sand from getting all over the house.   Here’s a pic just taken this morning of my budding little artist’s modeling art.  This tray gets an A+ for being multipurpose and stylish.  It’s great gift for children, hostesses, and anyone who likes to entertain.  It’s $39 at Baileybea.com.  Click here to buy

Personalized Note Cards by Sweet Mady’s

Having personalized note cards is such a wonderful thing to give yourself or someone you love.    My lovely friend asked me about personalized note cards last week.   So often the price of having personalized fine stationery seems out of reach, but these days with digital printing and affordable laser printers designers can make a personalized set of note cards affordable.    Look at these lovely cards by Sweet Mady’s Designs.  Beautiful and affordable at  $23 for a set of 12 cards.   This card set is called “Refreshing Batik.”    You can also find it here – Refreshing Batik

Hip Babes wear Petra Boase

Real hip babies wear Petra Boase.  Some of my friends are lucky enough to have the first peak and feel of these fabulous Petra Boase shirts.  I really cannot say enough about how adorable these shirts are  IRL (In Real Life).  They make great gifts, keepsakes, and most of all they will give you grand compliments everywhere you go.   I’m going to try to talk Petra into making me one in an adult size. I put together a slide show so you can see these hip babes in action and looking oh so stylish!
