click here to see awesome baby/mama stuff for sale!

YES, that's right, i am doing my semi-annual purging of the stuff. this stuff feels like it is swallowing my home, but perhaps you have a place for an item or two (or 10 or 20, who am i to argue?) here you will find tons of new and lightly used toys, baby slings, clothes, furnishings, and other items...

 

i am constantly updating my craigslist ad and also have a TON of clothes (newborn-5 boy, newborn-10 girl, and teen/ladies/juniors small and medium) and shoes (same size range), and books and toys that i have not individually listed yet. also have a big dresser with a mirror attached and some kitchen appliances/ gadgets that i may be persuaded to sell! also a breast pump, petunia picklebottom diaper bag, little tikes slide and other outdoor items...

 

please let me know if you're needing anything, listed or not!

Are you still ignoring the drip, drip, drip of that leaky faucet ? You know you should fix it but where do you start?

In recognition of Fix a Leak Week, start by visiting the Portland Water Bureau’s Web site for information on fixing basic toilet and faucet leaks. Or, if your fixture requires replacement, hire a professional to install a WaterSense-labeled model. WaterSense fixtures are 20 percent more water-efficient than average products and are independently tested for performance.

Did you know that in an average household 22 gallons of water are lost to leakage each day costing $80 in annual water and sewer charges? This daily leakage volume is about equal to the amount of drinking water a family of 3 needs for two full weeks! The Environmental Protection Agency’s Fix a Leak Week exists as an important yearly reminder to Americans to check their plumbing fixtures and irrigation systems for these costly leaks.

Order toilet leak detection tablets and other water conservation devices by calling (503) 823-4527 or visiting the Portland Water Bureau’s Web site.

Something Beautiful

Custom Art by local SAHM

Are you looking for a pretty piece of art for your child/baby's room or even an adult room?  I'm a local stay at home mama and have really started to love painting and working to sell them. 

How it works :
-email me - beckastebbins@gmail.com or call 503.679.2174
-you let me know the colors of the room your painting will live in, email me a pic if you want! That is always appreciated :)
-After that, we work out the details of the size you'd like and how much it will cost. 

Please get ahold of me for more examples or to get started on a project ... and thank you! :)

We have one of the world's smallest bathrooms, so with a budget only for paint, we are looking for ideas to make the most of our little space. Although the tile would not have been our choice, we can live with it and are trying to work with it. So, I wanted to use varying tones of gray on the walls and a plum colored shower curtain as an accent color (taken from the granite countertop). I have taken 'before' pictures, but not sure how to share them on this post. I would really love suggestions from other moms and do-it-yourselfers. Thanks,

We moved in a new place last spring which runs on oil heat. We did a quick fill up right when we moved in but didn't really get a chance to research the different options. We are looking for the least expensive place that delivers (we live in NE). I am looking for recommendations from mamas of places to buy oil from - or if they know any resources to compare prices, etc. Thanks!

I am looking for someone to come into my home to evaluate what needs to be done and to help make it happen. I am specifically looking for someone who is reliable, experienced, and professional.  I called "Portland babyproofers" but the dude never calls back. (: I am tired of waiting and do not have time or the skills to do this project myself.
