Meet Robin
Mom-Stuff Blog Tour is visiting Robin this week. “Lolidotsbegan as a boutique for unique handmade children’s accessories, clothing and gifts. It started with Kutie Klips hair bows and grew from there. I love creating and crafting.
The Lolidots Blog was an unexpected extension of the Boutique that has been a wonderful experience for me. I love doing the product reviews and hosting the fun giveaways for all of my readers. More than that, I’m starting to be more comfortable with the main page of the blog and really enjoy the fun I have with it. The creative outlet is nice to have but, what’s been the most amazing part is the friendships I’ve made through it and because of it.
I’m a Texan through and through, wear my heart on my sleeve, wonderfully flawed Mommy of two, married to my best friend, child of divorce, former “party girl”, good listener, super sarcastic, soul searching, chili-cheese fries loving, non-baking, rock and rolling, unconventional parent…in a constant state of organized chaos.
I like to think of myself as an open book. If you’ve got a question about anything from hair bows to something you’ve seen or would like to see on the blog, please contact me! ” robin@lolidots.com
Hello, My name is Robin (more…)

Classmate Valentines
Crafty Moms, School Teachers, Anyone who wants to make your own Valentine
Mom-Stuff has a NEW selection of original fun and easy Valentines!!!
Let your child choose the valentine he/she wants to make and give to their classmates at school. Keep in mind your child’s skill level. The Bee, Lady Bug and Butterfly are the easiest. While the Monkey and Lion are more difficult. They have small pieces to cut and glue. The patterns are made for 8 x 10 card stock sheets of paper. If you use scrapbook paper you will need to cut it to size.
After choosing the Valentine your child wants to make click on the link for instructions. Here you will find your materials list and the links for the patterns. Don’t try to make all of the animals unless you have a lot of time. If you keep it to one or two making these will be fun, fast and easy.
Printing instruction: On the pattern page double click on printer friendly button. When the pattern pulls up left click the mouse and right click on print picture.
I use boxes of candy hearts but you can use other candy. These Valentines look cute without the candy if you do not want to give candy to the kids.
Go to Make You Own Valentines at www.mom-stuff.com for patterns and instructions.
Mom-Stuff your mom’s resource site, has lots of Valentine Crafts. Visit and find something fun to make and give this Valentine’s Day

The Mom-Stuff Blog Tour is visiting Solo Dot Mom this week. Katherine’s blog is filled with great stories about her life as a single mom, dating, loving life, and taking care of her kiddos who mean the world to her and who she truly consider to be her treasures… Her intent is to keep it real, through the good, the bad, the beautiful, and the ugly. On her site you will find true stories of dating experiences over the past couple years, her current relationship with a man known as Mr M, as well as moments of frustration as a single parent trying to do it all on my own… (with help from above, of course). And yes, there are also some blog posts about her joys and successes… plus she has even started doing some GIVEAWAYS. She loves photography and her site is filled with her beautiful photos. Mom-Stuff knows you will enjoy getting to know her as much as we have..
Solodotmom can be found at: http://kitkat4real.blogspot.com

We are having lots of fun on our Blog Tour. This week we want to introduce you to Katherine at Solo Dot Mom. She has a different set of challenges. She is a single mom with a great sense of honor. I have followed her for some time now and I love to see how she meets her challenges. She juggles her life with grace and laughter. Here is her story in her own words as posted on her site.
That day, 6 years ago, I left the bondage of which I found myself a victim. I left the man whose love had turned into violent jealousy and possessiveness as I became his obsession. That day I became a single mom; even before the papers were signed for the final big D, I stepped out and took that leap… into singlemomhood. Ready or not, there I was. (more…)
