Giveaway Day 8: Hugs & Kisses Designs
Bet you didn’t know a bebehblog week had EIGHT days in it. But I absolutely positively could not hold any kind of handmade giveaway without bringing you something from the lovely and talented Becca from Hugs & Kisses Designs. I have absolutely no idea how I wandered over to her corner of the internet but I stalk read her blog every day and love seeing her pretty face pop up in my Twitter. She has an adorable son named Cayden who is almost the same age as Little Evan so I think of them as growing up together…even thought they’ve never actually met. And neither have Becca and I. And there’s no plans for that to happen any time soon. Ahem.
But how can you not feel like BFF’s with someone who sends you this?
I once commented on Becca’s blog that this fabric she uses is my absolute favorite, because it matches my hummingbird tattoo. Obviously she READS her comments and has a fabulous memory, since when she said she was going to make me something special she went straight for this stuff!
Because that’s what this is: a beautiful handmade diaper bag. At first I thought it was going to be a little small but after jamming a whole day’s worth of snacks, two sippies, my day planner, my keys, my wallet, three diapers, a wipes case, a toddler-size change of clothes AND my DSLR in there, I can assure you it is LARGE.
But besides the brand new diaper bags available NOW from Hugs & Kisses, Becca also makes a ton of other beautiful fabric items from paci clips to clutches to wet bags. Personally though, these are my favorite:
Custom silhouettes of your kids?!?! AWESOME. (She also does pets!!)
Custom prints of your wedding date or your children’s birthdays?!!?!?! So cute as a gift or for yourself! And for the record, I take 100% of the credit for those wedding date prints. I asked her to make one for me for my friend Erin’s bridal shower and now they’re in the shop!
And because she rocks, Becca is offering one lucky reader a $25 credit to Hugs & Kisses Designs!
To enter, just visit Hugs & Kisses (either here on Etsy or here on Big Cartel – Becca is switching over to BC so she’s got stuff in both shops) and leave a comment telling me what item you like best!
Giveaway open until November 8th, winner will be chosen using Random.org and notified via email so make sure you use a real one when you comment.
You should also check her out on her blog and The Twitter, because she’s wonderful, her kid is cute and she’s adding new stuff to her shop all the time.
Disclaimer bit: Becca sent me the diaper bag free of charge to photograph and review, but also because she likes me. For the record though, I’ve purchased from her shop before and plan to again as soon as I can get Little Evan to sit still long enough to take a good profile shot. I NEED one of those silhouettes!!

I really like the prints with birthdates on them! Those would be great for my kids rooms!
i love the diaper clutches. they are so adorable!
I keep buying more and more stuff from her for OTHER people, but not for me!! I want to win!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Also, since you take full credit for the wedding prints, I must thank you since I have bought TWO of them for different weddings we had this summer :)
So yes. Win please. K, thx!
I love her stuff! I need one of the prints with the name & birthday on them for C’s move to her “big girl” room.
I don’t need one for diapers just yet, but I’ve got other uses in mind! So cute!
I’m already becoming the person who talks about her dog nonstop, so let me take this opportunity to tell you I would love a pet silhouette for Gracie :)
I love the prints but I think I would use a clips as mitten clips for the winter since I am sure we will lose our fair share of mittens!
I LOVE LOVE LOVE the silhouettes! It’s all lovely though. Bravo, Becca!
The silhouttes are adorable! I would love to have one of those for Mia!
Those silhouettes are so wonderful.
It’s hard to pick just one thing!!! I looooove everything! I think the diaper clutches and bags are to die for though. Seriously, becca is a rockstar.
I would have to go for the dog silhouettes. maybe a birth announcement as an afterthought? definitely silhouette though.
i totally need a diaper clutch.
I really love the diaper bag! I am slightly addicted to bags and buy way more of them then any one person needs…But I am a huge fan of bags that don’t look like diaper bags, and this one falls into that genre!
I love the diaper bag! But I really love the red, black & white diaper clutch. Also, when I have another baby (yes, when, not if), I hope he/she will be more inclined than his/her sisters were to use pacifiers, so I will be visiting for the pacifier clips. Love those!
Those are the cutest paci clips I have ever seen. I am such a sucker for polka dots.
The cloth diaper bags are really cute, but I NEED silhouettes of all three of my kids! In funky colors!
Great job suggesting the date artwork. Def would get a wedding one, so cute.
LOVE LOVE LOVE BECCA! and her amazing work. thanks to your great idea i had the perfect gift for ryan’s best friend when he got married last summer! if i won i would choose the silhoutte or the name and date thing for corbin’s birthday!!!

oh my gosh, it’s all so cute! i love the silhouette, the bags, the clutches… all of it. can i choose what i want when i win?? {keyword: “when”… that’s the power of positive thinking, baby!}
I love the birthday or anniversary art.
i like the {cloth diaper clutch} concentric circles!
LOVE this stuff! Especially those silhouettes! Must. Have.
I love all the fabric! I don’t know which I would choose!
Yep- that pretty floral wet bag has my name all over it!
I love the diaper clutches! What a great idea!
I’d LOVE to win a wet bag (or two!) Since we are constantly using plastic bags to transport our wet cloth diapers around! And with three babies thats a lot of diapers!
I love the sposie diaper clutch in ferny blues. I don’t have a kid, I just like it.
I love the wedding date art…I would be thrilled to gift it to myself :)
The sposie clutch in ferny blues is GORGEOUS. Must. Must. Must. Have.
I love the silhouettes.
I love the paci clips and the cloth diaper clutches — too cute!
I love your bag, but the silhouettes are really cool too.
The diaper bags and clutches are just adorable but I LOVE the silhouettes!
Oh my lord. The Birth date sets are to -die- for.
Her diaper bags and clutches are super cute too! Oh jeesh. <3
I think the wedding date print is really cool. I also think it’d be fun & kinda funny & cute to have a print of our fat cat!
I want a diaper clutch! So cute! I totally get it about not wanting to carry a huge diaper bag with me everywhere I go! I leave ours in the car most of the time (and then I end up running out to the car for dear life when I need it all of a sudden)!
The diaper bag could be used for SO MUCH MORE!!!
I REALLY want one of her wedding date prints for my little brother’s wedding coming up in January!
I would love a diaper bag in peaches and cream!! Our diaper bag is a packpack, which is perfect for Ku, but I hate it! I stuff all the things I need in my purse so I don’t have to take the stoopid diaper bag with me when we are out n’ about without Ku. So I’m crossing my fingers because a new diaper bag would be great!
Thanks for the amazing giveaways! It was tons of fun :)
I love love love the diaper bags and the silhouettes!
I love the silhouettes but would also love a new diaper bag. She has such cute taste!
I like the diaper clutch in the ferny blues fabric. Though the coolest one is definitely the one with the giraffe and elephants that’s only in the etsy banner. Fantastic fabric!
I’m a HUGE fan of Paci clips!
I adore the diaper bags like yours, and totally want one for a knitting bag as well. But I keep coming back to that Green Floral binky clip, which makes no sense, since no one in my family uses a binky. :)
Oh, I love them all! The fabrics are great… tough call between the blue, brown and yellow squiggle diaper clutch and the silhouettes – for both baby and dog :-).
I like the brown squiggle diaper clutch.
