No strings attached

If you follow children's product recalls, you may have noticed that clothing with drawstrings often makes the list, because of the strangulation hazards it poses.

Purchasing children's apparel that doesn't have drawstrings is safer (and helps to avoid the recall hassle).

None of our baby or children's clothing - including our kids hoodies - have drawstrings, so you can feel safe about kids clothes from Bold Avenue.

New organic clothing options

Our organic clothing now comes in more colors! Check out these new tees:

• Organic Men's T-Shirt (dark)
• Organic Men's Fitted T-Shirt (dark)
• Organic Women's T-Shirt (dark)
• Organic Women's Fitted T-Shirt (dark)

Wearing hope and love

What if you could wear hope? Or love? What would it feel like? Maybe like wrapping yourself in a warm, fleece-lined hoodie? Or light and relaxed like pulling on your favorite cotton tee on a carefree spring day?

We think those are likely possibilities. Which is why it just seems fitting that our both our LOVE and HOPE inspirational collage designs now come on high-quality t-shirts, sweatshirts and other apparel items for adults and children.

So try on HOPE. Your satisfaction is guaranteed.

Top gifts for staying in

This Top Gifts Tuesday's theme: Staying In!
(For those who'd rather get out, see last week's post.)

For some of the people on your gift list, home is where the heart is! They like to sit down with a cup of coffee, a glass of wine or just some good quality chocolate and contemplate things - like how every life writes a poem or how children are never as innocent as they look or how Holst was right about Pluto all along.

They'd love gifts that help them nestle all snug in their homes, and...

• Don comfy apparel - sweatshirts (+dark, +kids), tracksuits, t-shirts (+baby/toddler, +juniors, +kids, +maternity, +plus, +womens)
• Snuggle up - throw pillows, teddy bears
  
• Cook something up - aprons, bowls (+small), mugs (+large), tile coasters
• Put the "home" back in home office - journals, mousepads, yearly calendar prints, clocks
  
• Hang art (on the walls) mini poster prints, framed panel prints (on the fridge) magnets (+rectangle, +rectangle 10pk.) (on the tree) ornaments (+oval)

Top gifts for people on the move

This Top Gifts Tuesday's theme: Getting out!

Whether they're gardening, taking the dog for a run, traveling, chauffeuring the kids around or simply getting out to enjoy the sun through the trees, people who spend most of their time outside of house could use Christmas gifts that...

• Keep them warm - tracksuits, hoodies (+kids), long sleeve tees (+womens)
  
• Keep them cool - golf shirts, tanks (+juniors), t-shirts (+infant/toddler, +juniors, +kids, +maternity, +plus, +womens)
  
• Keep the sun off - caps, trucker hats, black caps
• Keep things together - totes, messenger bags
• Keep them in touch - postcards, greeting cards
• Keep them hydrated...or caffeinated - travel mug

Top gifts for families

Today is our first Top Gifts Tuesday! We'll be highlighting unique Christmas gift ideas the next few weeks, so make sure you stop back by - or subscribe to our feed.











Today's theme: Family

• Showcase personalities: choose a different mug that fits each member of the family's personality (large mugs for parents). Also works with teddy bears, buttons (large or mini), hats, ornaments or t-shirts (mens, womens, kids, baby).
• Welcoming a new addition? Think maternity shirts (+black), diaper bags, onesies, bibs.
• For a four-legged family member: dog shirts, pet bowls (+small).
• Help a family deck the halls for Christmas or year-round with ornaments, yard signs, clocks and decorative pillows.

Why wait for Black Friday?

Couldn't wait for Thanksgiving...

1. To say a big "Thank you!" for your encouragement, your feedback, your spreading the word and, of course, your business.
   
2. To wish you a very happy holiday!
3. To start our Sale! Since our sale poll closed with dark tees and tote bags in a dead heat, we're putting both on sale...right....now!

Happy Thanksgiving from Bold Avenue!
