La Di Das Welcomes SweaterHeads

Greetings and happy holiday season!

We do hope you are all enjoying family and friends this time of year. Here in the midwest, it's getting cold! It's fun for a few days, but the kids seem to love it for awhile longer. So, as we're getting our kids layered for the winter months, we thought they might as well still be stylish under all those layers, and voila, SweaterHeads was born.

Since we so love this upcycling business, we created SweaterHeads from sweaters no longer being worn. Some are wool, some are blends...it is whatever we can find that and dream up something fun and different with. And what has been so fun about this line, is that each hat can be created for the individual who is wearing it. They are definitley attention grabbers because we are a little obnoxious on the appliques that we add in. We hand stitch most of the accessories we add. Here's a couple to check out:

We shot a few with our kids this weekend, so we'll upload those soon! Please check us out at www.la-di-das.com.
Stay warm and have a great holiday season!!!

A dream come TRUE!

Just a little thank you to all of our friends and family that has listened to us for countless years talk about our dreams and aspirations. 2011 is sure to be a HUGE year for La-Di-Das and we are so ready for it!! We are finally starting to see our dream come to life--trunk shows, tutu parties, online shopping cart, and of course our web and blog to share with the world!

diVinyl Inspirations for little wrists

All of our recent diVinyl Inspiration cuffs are now available on our online store!!! And don't forget about those little wrists that need love too!!

Up-Cycling

What is upcycling?!? It is the opposite of downcycling-which is the other half of the recycling process. Downcycling involves converting materials and products into new materials of lesser quality. La-Di-Das has fallen in love with upcycling--converting materials and products into new materials of GREATER quality!! We are making all kinds of awesome products from items that people were thinking of throwing away! Our newest creation is our diVinyl Inspirations--bracelets made from old vinyl records!! Check them out on our site HERE! And now you can personalize and purchase them HERE on our site as well!!!

It's Time to get ready for the Holiday Season!!!

It is La-Di-Das' first ever Holiday Season and we want to make it a great one! We are stocking up on tulle, ribbon, paper, and all kinds of extra goodies!!! We are very excited to announce our first trunk show as the official "La-Di-Das" girls in December so be watching for the information for that! As always keep up to date on our site www.la-di-das.com and our Facebook page!! HAPPY HOLIDAYS!!!

About Us
It all started with a wish! Two best friends who had a dream to have a full-time job doing something they loved to do TOGETHER! One with a funky side—think rock bands and guitars, and the other who loved the frills—think pink and lace! Two husbands, five kids, and four dogs later, La-Di-Das was born. Everything happened so fast that it’s hard to define the exact moment that the idea became reality, but we are thankful everyday that we made it happen! It must have been hundreds of cups of coffee and many miles on the treadmill together when it began to bloom. We love dreaming up ideas that incorporate both of our styles, and we look forward to all the future has to offer!

Nicki
I spent many years in corporate America, and a few of those years were spent with Jaime. I’m a wife and a mom to two incredible boys. My husband is my rock and has always given me support and encouragement, no matter how crazy he thinks my ideas are! My boys, well one is almost a man at 16 and the other is terrorizing the neighborhood at almost 4. In 2007, I left the 9-5 rat race to stay home with my family. However, in 2008, I discovered I could do both, and I opened an online retail boutique, Giggle Bug Boutique. Inspired by my drive to dress myself, my kids and even my pets in fun and funky styles, we are still growing strong today. You may have guessed I am the funky side of this house. Where fashion meets funk is where you’ll find me. Jaime is my best friend and I am excited everyday to work beside her. I never grow tired of creating and dreaming with her or being inspired by her!

Jaime
First and foremost I am a wife and a very busy mom to a five year-old and three year-old twins. My family is the light of my life and I’ve learned so much from each one of them! My husband is able to put up with me and all my crazy ideas and passions so he is definitely worth keeping! My boys are typical boys always catching creatures that they want to bring indoors, wrestling, and wanting to dress like they are on rock band with tattoos and mohawks—I’m learning to deal with that and Nicki is helping my find my funky side. Then there is my little princess—I prayed for a girlie-girl and she couldn’t be any closer to a true diva! She loves tutus, babies, and most of all the color pink! La-Di-Das is truly a dream come true for me. I love being able to finally share my creative side and be able to do it alongside my best friend!
