More about our talented WAHM:

A love for sewing and clothing was all it took for Amanda to start a new venture in 2011. She attended her first sewing class and was hooked! Being able to gift friends and family with handmade gifts was so rewarding, she decided to start up her business Paisley Pear Designs. Starting out small at the local farmers market and craft shows 5 years ago she would have never imagined her business becoming a full time job. Attending farmers markets in 2 towns, multiple craft shows, Etsy and wholesale accounts keep her busy throughout the year. Choosing original designs and high quality organic fabric for baby and infant wear have become her best sellers. She is excited for 2016 and can’t wait to see what the future holds for her business!

We can’t either!!!! Keep up the amazing work, Amanda!!!

Happy FREE FRIDAY from PAXbaby.com and Burrow & Bloom!!!

While on maternity leave in 2013 Alyssa searched for her perfect carrier,
watching tons of PAXbaby instructional videos with her little baby sleeping
on her chest. He would only sleep on mama and mama had to bring him back to
work with her! With practice they came to love their wrap conversion ring
sling, (which Alyssa sewed herself), for trips to the store and their mei
tai was perfect for naps at work.
Burrow & Bloom is inspired by Alyssa’s son, her journey into motherhood,
and the desire to create and share whimsical toy slings & nursing necklaces
with fellow moms and their little ones.
When Alyssa found her safe-for-baby jewelry options limited, but still
wanted to express her style she began sewing her own nursing necklaces.
Figuring other moms would enjoy them, too she decided to shift the focus of
her Etsy shop from purses to teething necklaces! Thus Burrow & Bloom was
born!
From there, dolly slings just sort of happened!!
While sewing necklaces one afternoon, Alyssa’s little guy needed
something to play with, so she grabbed a couple rings, some wrap scrap and
made him his own little sling. When asked if he wanted to carry his baby,
just like mommy, he was absolutely elated and proudly carried his baby all
around the house!

Want to win a dolly sling of your very own??? NOW is your chance! Not one, but TWO lucky winners will be drawn TONIGHT at 8:00pm PST.
Remember to LIKE Burrow & Bloom on Facebook, and follow Alyssa’s blog on the adventure that is motherhood here: Burrow & Bloom!!

paxbaby
Good luck, and happy babywearing
The winner will be emailed once the drawing comes to an end on Friday, December 4th, 2015!! Shipping address must be confirmed via email within 24 hours, or a new winner will be chosen!! For this reason, make sure to check your email (including your Junk folder!!) Shipping in the States will be free; International winner will pay exact shipping costs!

In an effort to spread the word about Safe Slings and helping to promote”Babywearers Unite,” Anne-Marie created several new paintings highlighting proper sling positioning. My favorite is this new piece featuring a babywearing daddy, a pouch, and perfectly safe baby positioning!

For more art and loveliness, visit Anne-Marie’s Etsy shop, Creative Mother, and to stay updated with the artist & her pregnancy, read her blog at creativemother.blogspot.com! Enjoy!

The post Safe Sling artwork appeared first on PAXbaby.

Now, we have some babywearing art to provide you with a lighter way to share with your friends the basics of Safe Slings!  Enjoy, share, and look for more fabulous works of art as our very artistic friends create some wonderful babywearing art exclusively for PAXbaby.com and for the promotion of Safe Slings!

Pattie from Fancie Fannies on Etsy painted these adorable wooden dollies for PAXbaby!!!  They are on their way to California right now, but I can’t wait to see these babywearing mamas in person!!!  Thanks, Pattie, for creating these Safe Sling moms with such accurate detail & helping to spread the babywearing love!!!

5 babywearing mothers each demonstrating Safe Slinging with a different carrier!  From left to right:

Robyn is wearing her baby in a mai tei tummy to tummy.  Kristi has her baby in the upright position in a wrap.  Karina’s blondey is safely positioned upright in a soft structured carrier (the Beco Butterfly in the Alice print to be exact!) Jessie has her little one on her hip in a comfortable pouch, and Mia is wearing her ring sling with a front facing baby.

And their sweet little backsides!!!!  Again from left to right is a mai tei, wrap, soft structured carrier, pouch, and a ring sling!

Thank you, Fancie Fannies, for this adorable hand-made babywearing art!!

The post Safe Slings art appeared first on PAXbaby.

Etsy is a favorite website of the PAXbaby mamas! You can find anything there, and most of it is handmade! We especially love coming across babywearing items on Etsy! Check out these fun finds!

Babywearing gear for little people! These handmade pouch slings are perfect for little girls and boys to carry their dolls or stuffed animals in. I’ve even heard of little boys using them to tote around their favorite trucks! So cute! The mama behind this pouch sling in it’s country-flair bandanna print says, “The slings are for sale — we keep the cowgirls =)”

The mama and papa behind Family Tree Glass are babywearers! Along with this gorgeous Slinging Mama pendant, they hand create beautiful pregnancy, birth and nursing pendants from a rainbow of colors of glass. Each piece is one of a kind, they don’t use molds! Pretty awesome, isn’t it? A beautiful way to commemorate the relationship between you and your little one and remind you of the precious slinging days! Check out their website for even more glass art.

Here’s a babywearing magnet to stick on your fridge! The sweet, hand drawn image shows a baby in mama’s sling. I love the colors on the sling, reminds me of Wrapsody Bali Baby in Iris with it’s rainbow of colors melting together. What do you think?

The art is by Jen Niles and is also available as an ink jet print.

Some of the most inspiring Etsy art we have come across is babywearing dolls. First up, choose from a mother and newborn or family babywearing doll sets. The mama behind these gorgeous works of art is from Sydney, Australia! Her dolls are approximately 5″ tall, perfectly sized for little hands. The babywearing family wears their newborn twins, mama with her sling and papa in his wrap. The mother and newborn is a four piece set, mom can switch between wearing her babe in a pouch sling or wrap! The babies are swaddled and wear adorable elf-like hats.

And check out this needle felted babywearing mama egg! Perfectly sized for your little one’s hands, this sweet mama has her baby all wrapped up in a sling. If you aren’t familiar with needle felting, it begins with raw wool roving which is then poked and squished into form. It’s an arduous process, but the results can be spectacular, as shown with this gorgeous little egg! You can also order this and other egg designs as part of a half-dozen carton of wool eggs. (Could be a perfect basket stuffer for Easter, which is right around the corner!)

We’ll end with some babywearing inspired art. This simple yet breathtaking watercolor art piece depicts a daddy wearing his baby on his back in a meh dai. I love the monochromatic look and simple lines. And baby looks snuggled against daddy’s back, maybe even sleeping! One other cool thing about this picture, if you haven’t noticed, the fabric in the background is none other than the same as our Zoye Beco Butterfly II! Pretty neat!

Thanks to all the Etsy mamas and papas for inspiring us and creating works of art that remind us to cherish our little ones and wear them often!
