WAHM Winter Wonderland: UpCycled Love Woolie Love Bums & Giveaway

Ok so i know this was supposed to end on Friday but we had 1 more mom sneak in for a bonus review/giveaway. I have worked with this WAHM many times and purchased many items from her and she never disappoints me. Here is her Bio

Hello! My name is Alaina Kroes and I started Upcycled Love in order to give woolie loving families an affordable wool options. I started making woolies when I researched the retail woolie prices for my son. Coincidentally, a few days later I shrunk my husband's wool sweater and I new there would be way to use it for cloth diapering. I scour local stores for gently used wool and upcycle them into soakers (extra layer of wool in wetzone), covers, shorties and longies.

Wool is an amazing fiber and I would love to make your little one cozy woolies!!!

Here is what we received.

These are her Woolie Love Bums. They are size 1 and fit from 3 Months to 3 years. These are at the largest setting, This is the backside and here is the front.

I almost died when I saw these they are so cute! They retail for $24 and she has alot of great sweaters to choose from. So in order to get these to fit multiple sizes you will fold or roll the waist and the legs. Here is how it looks on our little man.

That is him on the go he is always so busy.

Again these are so cute and I love them. She had made us some great longies as well she can do some amazing things with wool and adding custom items to the legs of butt.

One lucky TTGG follower will be winning a pair of Woolie Love Bums of their own!!

Upcycled Love Wool & Giveaway Worldwide

I stumbled upon Upcycled Love on facebook and I am so glad that I did. Alaina makes upcycled soakers, shorties and longies out of some great sweaters. I am always excited when I see her post new sweaters that she has on her page. They were packaged so nice and that is always a plus for me. It shows they take that extra step to send it with love. I was also asked if I wanted them Lanolized first and of course I said yes one less step for me with a baby is always nice. She sent me a pair of shorties and a pair of longies.

Here are the shorties.

These are made fro a slightly thicker sweater and they are so nice. They fit him almost like a pair of pants but I really liked them here is how they look on. This is the front side.

Now here is the backside.

Now I saved the best for last I have to say that I absolutely LOVE these longies. The fabric if great. It works great and the sweater must of been a thinner one. The color is great and she added a super surprise extra that I also love.

They are so soft. Here is the backside with the extra.

Its a skunk!! The funny thing about it is that I always tell him that he stinks like a skunk when he poops lol how did she know. These are so soft and I have been really loving these for nighttime. Now that he is sleeping longer I double or triple stuff and then put these over top and so far no leaks! Now on to it here is how they look on!!

The waist is a little big here but I only have a regular diaper on with a single insert. I a ok with it being a bit big so he can grow into them. I have the legs folded up as well so I can see his feet. I love the fit on the diaper. Now here is the back shot.
