100% Chemical free for 50% off

I know that it’s just that time in my life, but it seems like everyone around me is pregnant. So with all the showers and celebrations that come with having lots of friends with babies, I love when I find great baby gifts (which is actually pretty easy because everything is so cute).

Today while shopping at Era, down on Princess street, I came across some baby care products, that are not only made in Canada, but claim to be 100% chemical free and made with organic ingredients. The brand is Druide, and I chose the baby shampoo protecting balm.

What’s more, is I got it all for 1/2 price! Era’s got a pretty big sale going on these days, and you get 50% off all the new lines in the store (and by new, they just mean non-vintage), including Kate Quinn Organics, super cute baby clothes Em posted about a little while back. They don’t just carry baby clothes, so if it’s not all you shop for these days, that’s ok!

You knew it would happen. You’d  plod along for years all young and carefree with no responsibilities and then WHAM. It’s hits. People start. having. babies. Once the initial ‘we are getting kinda old’ shock wears off, you realize that appointing yourself pseudo-auntie can be pretty fun. All the cute without the responsibility!

 It was with this in mind that I surfed recently for cute yet functional baby gifts online and I came across Kate Quinn Organics (http://www.katequinnorganics.com/index.html).  Here’s the deal: 100% organic cotton baby clothes and bedding. Soft fabrics, rich colours and WAY more to choose from than the standard pink, blue or yellow.  Kate is based in the US, but here’s the best part: strolling Princess St last week, I noticed that the line is available at Era Modern (110 Princess St). How’s that for convenient!?
