MyMomShops Giveaway: Sandbox Threads


This contest is now closed. Congratulations to Patricia, who wrote, "LOVE give peas a chance! too cute!" Patricia, please e-mail me with your name, address, and size of onesie or tee.


OK, I've posted about a lot of mom-launched businesses thus far. Now it's time to give kudos to an entrepeneurial stay-at-home Dad. This one has given birth to Sandbox Threads, an online boutique that sells decidedly hipster, original tees and onesies. There's someting to suit just about everyone's tastes (and you won't see another kid at the sandbox wearing the same shirt). Choices include future activist onesies (it's Election Day today- remember to vote!), vintage onesies (being a child of the 80s, I am partial to the Joystick and Rubik's Cube designs), and famous faces onesies (like Jimi Hendrix,pictured here...there's also a fab Bill Murray one). And, these great threads are priced starting at just $17 (a pretty retro-sounding price these days). Check out all the offerings at Sandbox Threads.

Enjoy a 10% discount on any order at Sandbox Threads, now through November 30, 2007, with code "momshops".
