Macaroy Kangaroo review and {GIVEAWAY!!}

Macaroy Kangaroo is an online store that specializes in monogrammed and personalized products. (From their website):"I carry Monogrammed children's clothing and accessories, waterproof bottle and sippy cup labels from Cherry Hill Designs, Bungalow Scout Totes and Storage Bins, Personalized Melamine plates from My Clean Plate Club, Viva Beads, momAgenda, Happeez line from Mayfair Lane, personalized children's artwork and other handmade goodies."

This store has such a great variety of cute items that you all are going to love. Some of my favorite products they offer are the Holiday Wooden Blocks (which sell for $12.00! does it get any better then that?) and the Monogrammed Diaper Covers which are so adorable and are only $10.00. What a perfect baby shower gift. You can't beat these prices for homemade gifts. And by homemade, I mean that someone homemade them, just not necessarily you (or me).
I was able to review a Bungalow Scout Tote Bag. These bags come in several sizes including
Original Dean-O,
Mini Dean-O,
and The Weekender, I chose the Mini Dean-O because I figured it would be the perfect size to use as a diaper bag when needed. I loved the chocolate twist pattern design. You can't tell in the picture below but the bag is actually made out of a kind of stiff plastic material so it can stand up on it's own which I love. I hate that my diaper bag is always flopped over so I have to open it up and dig around to see what I have inside. I don't have that problem with this bag.


After receiving the bag I decided to use it as my crochet/knitting bag instead of a diaper bag. It's the perfect size to fit all of my tools and there is no zipper or anything for the yarn to get snagged on. I love it.

An additional perk to this bag is that you can purchase the El Deano Chiller which is a temperature controlled bag that you put hot or cold food into and is custom fitted to go inside your Dean-O bag. Who couldn't use one of those? What a perfect way to take dinner to a friend in need without spilling all over your car in the process.

WIN IT!!
