{guest post} Shreya from MommyPage.com

It’s no secret that rasing a little one has a lot of costs involved so when I was contaced by Shreya from MommyPage, I thought that their concept of pulling together deals geared for moms all in one place was a fabulous idea.

Today I not only have the pleasure of introducing Shreya as our guest blogger, but I also have the honor of being featured on their front page today. (Read my interview here!)

Please welcome Shreya to hear all about MommyPage:

We’ve just launched a new site, MommyPage, to bring expecting moms, new moms and veteran moms a single source to all of the deals, coupons and savings opportunities offered online!

 

Our goal at MommyPage is to scour the internet to find and consolidate the latest free samples, coupons and special offers from some of the best name brands that moms like us love!  When the brands we love most aren’t offering something special – we have a team of moms that reach out to those companies to encourage them to offer something great to our MommyPage Turners!   MommyPage currently has found and posted offers such as VTech Kids, Kellogg’s, ThredUp, Baby Talk and American Baby!

 

Beyond our offers and deals, MommyPage helps all moms navigate their way through parenting. Our community of moms share stories on buying maternity clothing, healthy eating for two, baby behavior, first day at preschool and more!  Being a mom is about managing a home and lifestyle.  With our tips on parenting and access to savings – we hope to help moms make parenthood a successful adventure!

{nursery inspiration} safari luxe

Room Inspiration: The African Animal artwork (above) from Restoration Hardware. From there, I ran with the safari theme and added some luxe details in the form of crystals and textiles.

With details like this, you are sure to inspire plenty of imagination down the road. To make the room more masculine, simply change out the light fixture for something like a parchment covered drum shade!

Get the Look: Marrakech Swing Chair ($199). Crystal Pendant Light ($699). African Animal Art ($799/ea). Graco Shelby Crib in Cappucino ($189). Elephant Pillow ($32). Steamer Cube ($499). Etched Letter ($10). Crochet Rug ($68). Tapestry Rug ($59). Sheepskin Rug ($29.99).
