Adorable Etsy Shop. . . White Lace Designs Review and Giveaway!

If I were to make a list of essential baby items that I'd hate to live without, pacifiers would be one of them. My first baby just loved her binky, and so far my second one does too. Another item on my list would be a pacifier clip. I just hate that moment when you're out with the baby on a long day trip, and you realize that the little angel dropped her binky somewhere and you don't have a spare! Oh, the horror! That's why I adore pacifier clips. . . the pacifier is attached to your baby at all times, and can't get lost! Genius!!!

Bonus points if the pacifier clip is stylish and cute too! I've seen some really ugly ones at stores (with giant elephants or giraffes attached to them). White Lace Designs makes very simple but cute pacifier clips using ribbon and a plastic clip. These are universal pacifier clips, so they can be used with ANY kind of pacifier, including the Soothie ones you get from the hospital. It's tough to find binky clips that are compatible with those!
White Lace Designs makes these in a huge variety of colors and styles for all genders, seasons and outfits. I thought it would be cute to get this Lil' Sister one for Natalie! I keep this with us when we go out at all times, and it has saved many a binky from getting lost in the shuffle.
Note: I love the fact that she uses plastic clips. I've gotten a binky clip with a metal clip before, and they are too heavy and really drag down on their clothes! Plastic is so much lighter.

White Lace Designs really is one of the most versatile Etsy shops I've seen, because they make SO many different items! They can do custom burp cloth sets that say anything you want. I'd love to own these minky ones. Minky is my favorite baby fabric, it's so soft!

If you take your baby with you to cheer for an older sibling at games, how adorable would it be to have your burp cloth coordinate with the sports team? I guarantee it would be a huge hit with every other parent in the stands!

White Lace Designs also sent me one of their Cord/Chain covers to review. I never would have thought to buy one of these myself, but as soon as I received a 4.5 foot cord cover made of white silk dupioni, I knew right where I needed to put it. I have a lamp that sits on our kitchen island, close to the wall, and I have no choice but to have an ugly cord extending down from the lamp towards the floor. It always bugged me. I put the Cord Cover on, scrunched it up, and now it blends in with the wall! These Cord Covers are SO versatile, and they come in tons of color and fabric choices. You could use it for covering:
*Telephone cords
*Extention cords
*Lamp cords, like I did
*Ugly chains on antique chandeliers
*Any light fixture that has to be hung from the ceiling and has a cord trailing to the outlet
*Christmas light cords! I always hate the way the end of the cord looks, between the lights and the outlet.

Another thing I love about White Lace Designs. . . free shipping to the entire US!!!
