2014 - The Wonder Year

4/1/2014

Ever since the appearance of this little wonder... 
I have really started wondering. 

What an amazing thing the human body is, growing one inside another (in only 9 months!) How exciting it is to bring another unique mind into the world.  
Why having a child of our own can inspire us to challenge ourselves and be immensely determined to put our capabilities to the test. 

Parenthood can give us insight into our truth, what makes us who we are and who we want to become in the hearts and minds of our future generations.

Last year, many of my friends announced their first, second and third pregnancies (and now have new little families!)... surrounded by blossoming bellies and the excitement of their impending arrivals - I thought back to the limited range of comfortable and bold t-shirt prints available during my own pregnancy, and how I had wished (as a Kiwi, expecting a baby in the UK) I had been able to wear something attractive and unique to showcase our identity and make the most of my ever-expanding bump.

To solve this equation for others and dress the bumps of those around me - I came up with a boutique range of designer prints on quality maternity t-shirts, inspired by the iconic Tiki, wishful Dandelion and "...the pitter patter of tiny new feet." I then added to the series - two free-spirited designs - arising from the daydreams of  future children at play - Boy with Love Kite and Girl with Aroha Balloon. 

Seeing these new Art Out Loud NZ designs worn on the bellies around me - really made my heart sing!

A few of my friends had even been blessed with TWINS! Now two babies in one belly - that really got my ideas flying and of course a new design or few to celebrate!

Now 2014 has come around... and the babies continue to pop up (or pop out!)

My Art Out Loud NZ sketch book has been bubbling with fresh ideas to honour new life - even from the the earliest stages - the womb within... 

Now parents have a good reason to take their scrappy ultrasound images off the fridge or dig them out from their dark hiding places (usually between the pages of a baby book) and present them stylishly on their walls duly decorated in a remarkable Ultrasound Art Print.

I have created this affordable range (perfect for baby shower or nursery gifts) with both parents and motherhood in mind. There is an established a range of popular colours available as well as the option of complete customisation of the design with contrasting colours and heart detail crafted individually to compliment the personal theme in the child's new home.

With orders for these rolling in from the very first day of release (got to love my watchful Facebook fans!) 
I thought it would be lovely to start the year with an amazing deal - with every Art Out Loud NZ Maternity 
T-Shirt ordered - the lucky new parents also receive a FREE exclusive Ultrasound Art Print (January ONLY!)

And to "kick" the year off - here is a very special Maternity Ultrasonic GIVEAWAY - be sure to let all your pregnant friends know and be in to WIN these most gorgeous Art Out Loud NZ prizes!
