A perfect custom gift for kids.

 

I love all things unique and creative for myself and my kids. When I learned about Alexis of MayLo Studio, I was so excited and knew I had to reach out to her for a project for Matilda. If you go and see her instagram pics, you would want to get on ordering one.

I approached her because her work stood out to me among a lot of the custom dolls I have seen. I wanted a custom dolls for Matilda because I want it to be unique and special like her and I also want to incorporate her personality and her hearing aid. When I reached out and asked Alexis, she was super excited and told me so many ideas she could do for mini doll size Matilda with her hearing aid. I knew that she is the one! She asked questions about Matilda to get a sense of her personality and what she likes and I sent her pictures of Matilda’s hearing aid. 

When the doll came, it was amazing, better than what I expected. Matilda was thrilled and she loved how the doll’s hearing aid was exactly like hers. Alexis even took the time to make the doll different soft bands for the hearing aid and the details of her work is just so beautiful! I was so amazed by it that I took the doll out when Matilda was in school to show it off!

To this day, Matilda still plays with it and it has a very special place in her room. I am even debating having one make for the boys! If you guys ever want a very special presents or just something that you want to be like I can’t believe I didn’t know about this earlier, go to Alexis. She rocks. No regrets.

here and there. the things ive seen and i am ready to share with you people.

this Nanamica Gore Tex Duffle Coat is too much for me. look at it. its super nice and as you know i am a sucker for toggles. i wish they make this for ladies. but heck, i would love to get this for my mansomehandboy.

as i have posted about these backpacks before, i think its best that i get all three different sizes (12 by 14, 9 by 11 and the 15″)in different colors of course. that way, i can use them according to the occasion. and i think its a good investment since they will last and i am all for backpacks.

finally, i would like to have this necklace. i have seen many necklaces with the same idea but for some reason i like Ruth Barzel’s the best. (and on the side: is that arm pit sweat??! if so, thats kind of gross and kind of cool that she doesnt care about using the pic. if its not, then what kind of shirt is that OR what is that?)

i like.

these outfits from Zara are super cute and i want to dress just like them. is it illegal to want to use little girls’ outfit as my closet inspirations? (if so, maybe law & order should do a story on this.) who cares. clothes are clothes.

i use stools especially in my closet and kitchen (and sometimes in places when i would step up and suck up big monster spiders with my vacuum) and this stool would make me feel not so short and silly.

i would love to have this little nina’s house for a baby. i can put it in every room in the house. i really do want it. maybe someone can build one for me.

this desk is enough for what i need and perfect size to have in our room as an additional office space. maybe the person that will build my nina’s house can also build this one. it looks pretty simple, right. maybe i have some carpenter reader on my blog? i will decorate your hammer with nice little pretty things if you are so willing? call me.
