tomo & edie. {GIVEAWAY!}



Every new baby is a celebration of life, bringing with it hope, love and all things fresh. 100% organic cotton is good for your baby and good for the environment. Combine that with layette and you've got yourself a great combination. It's clear we love layette and Tomo & Edie is no exception. Dyed using the traditional Japanese Kusakizome process with all natural materials (think flowers, trees and tea leaves) the result is brilliant. Over time, unevenness of color and fading adds texture and beauty making each layette truly one-of-a-kind.

Created with baby in mind, Tomo & Edie's unique features add character and likability for mom and baby. The seams are sewn on the outside, to avoid irritation of delicate new skin. The loose fit protects the area around the umbilical cord and the tag is placed on the outside to avoid irritation as well.

The Layette collection is nature inspired and all natural resulting in "unique earthly colors that celebrate life and the seasons".

In honor of our weeks of "green" Tomo & Edie will be celebrating TWO Tangled and True readers with their nature inspired goodness.

One winner will receive: (boy package)


1 Kusakizome baby kimomo
(a $44 value)

and one winner will receive: (girl package)


1 natural organic baby kimono
(a $24 value)
"Certified 100% organic unbleached cotton. Machine wash and dry. Our kimonos are for babies 0-6 months."


and a pair of vintage kimono hair accessories
"handcrafted from vintage Japanese silk kimono and shaped as a 'ume' or Japanese plum blossom. Plum blossoms are a favorite motif in Japan representing early springtime."

But the goodness doesn't stop there: Tomo & Edie is also offering a 20% discount off every Tangled and True reader's purchase (a great swap idea) by emailing them at info@tomoandedie.com.

What is your favorite Tomo & Edie style?

I definately like the dyed one better and after looking at their site I think the short kimonos are really cute and very handy for summer babies, which I will be having shortly. I would love to win one for my little girl who is due in May.

I love the long organic baby kimono. I don't know what I'm having yet so I'd probably go neutral in color. I can just picture a cute little newborn, so comfy in a kimono. Cute!

Stacy said...

I love the short Kimono in any color really.
Even though I'm delivering in just a few weeks, it's still a surprise. So I'm not sure if I would need boy or girl. Perhaps we can do neutral, the Tan or Sunrise would work.

Thanks!

Hi, I am familiar with this company and I absolutely love their baby clothing. I especially like the combination organic baby kimono. It could be worn with a diaper or with leggings. How adorable! Also, the fact that it doesn't go over the baby's head really is a nice feature. Please enter me in your drawing. The girl set would be great. Although, either would thrill me. Thanks,Cindi
