Nice holiday cards for those who don’t mind being a little bit naughty

Every year I think, Yes, this is the year I am going to get my act together and do holiday cards. But maybe the problem hasn’t been my utter lack of motivation, maybe the problem is that I just didn’t know about Bumble Ink’s cheeky (or downright...

When a holiday card is much more than just a holiday card

by Christina Refford | Holiday Picks

For the past eight holidays, I’ve sent out standard flat photo cards featuring the kids, and I usually hear a few comments about how much the kids have grown. If I should send out Minted’s new Minibook Holiday Cards, I expect my phone would soon start...

Hi! We’re Kristen + Liz!

Kristen Chase + Liz Gumbinner of Cool Mom Picks

We started Cool Mom Picks in 2006 to help make life cooler, more meaningful, and more fun for parents of all kinds.

Trivia: It was called Cool Mom Sh*t for the first two days. (Yeah, we rethought that.)

We had no idea our site would grow to become a major lifestyle network, that we'd end up sharing our finds with the TODAY Show and Martha Stewart, that we'd be able to make a real difference for so many small businesses and women-run companies, or that we'd end up with an incredible community of the coolest readers on the planet. (If we do say so ourselves).
