Usually I will pick up a costume at the local party stores for my daughter to wear but they tend to not have a big selection of pirate costumes there other than the usual Jack Sparrow outfit or cheap pirate princess outfit. 

I was happy to have found a costume website called Wholesale Costume Club to look for something for my daughter.  I actually had found them before Halloween but didn’t want to take any chances in getting something delivered too late to use.  They have a huge selection of girl’s costumes so I will be getting an earlier start this Halloween!  This time, I was given an opportunity to review this website and their products in return for receiving a complimentary costume.

I was happy with the big selection of pirate costumes but decided to show the choices to my daughter who picked out the Scar-let Pirate Costume.  I was pleasantly surprised at how quickly the costume arrived after ordering. I would have probably had plenty of time at Halloween to get a costume as it took less than a week to arrive.

My daughter was extremely happy with this girl’s pirate costume.  It comes with a skull print dress, white underskirt, mesh arm piece, sash and boot covers.  The underskirt was scratchy feeling but since my daughter will be wearing leggings for the parade, it shouldn’t be an issue.  The dress falls above the knee as well so leggings or tights would be a good idea to wear with this outfit.  The sizing of the costume was accurate to the sizing in their chart so I am sure my daughter will wear it for play for a while.

The price of the outfit is a little less than what local party places charge for their outfits but the quality seems somewhat better than the nylon fabric they usually have on the cheaper costumes.  I don’t expect this outfit to have tears or runs like the cheaper costumes to have.  It’s a good value for this type of outfit.

If you are located in the Tampa area and are attending the Gasparilla parade or having a pirate and princess party, definitely check out Wholesale Costume Club for their costumes. They have some other cute outfits as well!

I ordered a combination of the 2 oz. bags of photo confetti and personalized confetti for my son’s 1st birthday. According to the site, this is over 1,000 pieces of confetti, including over 350 pieces of the photo confetti. It says each bag is enough to generously cover 2 to 4 eight foot tables.

The ordering process was easy. First, you pick out up to 3 different shapes of the non-photo or solid confetti. There is a choice of small and large hearts, small and large circles, Cinderella, doves, classic and elegant butterflies and wedding bells. I picked the large and small circles for my bag.
Then pick out up to 3 colors for the shaped confetti. There is a large selection of colors available which makes it great to be able to match any theme.
After that, for the personalized confetti, you can pick out up to 4 messages to be printed on some of the shaped confetti.
And finally, once that is completed on the website, you email up to 4 photos to be included in the photo confetti. She recommends not cropping the photos so she can crop it optimally for the printing process.
Except for my indecisiveness for what photos and messages to use, the ordering itself took just a few minutes.

I received my order within a week which is quick considering this was a personalized item. I am very happy with the results of the confetti. I had sent over a sampling of photos to choose from because I wasn’t sure what looked best in this process and she picked the best two. I can’t wait until I can decorate with this confetti so I can show off my baby boy. I know everyone will love it.

Whether you are looking for decorations for a birthday, wedding or other special event, definitely consider the photo confetti at The Pink Poodle Boutique. You will be well taken care of!
