Okay- it’s Blog Threads day! ?
Like I mentioned yesterday, we’ll be using any proceeds from this (2-day) sale to book a trip back to Haiti so that we can do some more bonding with our boy. (Thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart to anyone who purchases one!) We’ll also be sending 20% of the proceeds to the Wooldridge family, who is also in the process of adopting their son from the same orphanage. They are hoping to meet their little man in June, and we look forward to spending time with their family in the years to come.
The design is printed on a super soft, heather gray (50% Polyester, 25% Cotton, 25% Rayon) t-shirt made by Next Level.
I am 5′-5″ (125 lbs) and I’m wearing a size large, v-neck, ladies cut shirt in the photo up above. The design will also be available in the unisex cut, which runs a little bigger and has a crew neck. Here are the size charts for both kinds of cuts:
Unisex:
Ladies Cut v-neck:
HPS stands for “high point of shoulder”. It’s the measurement that goes from the highest point of your shoulder straight down to the hem at the bottom of the t-shirt. The Bust 1″ Blw Amhl measurement is the one that runs from side to side, across the bust area- 1″ down from the bottom of the arm hole if the t-shirt is laying flat. The third measurement (SLV Length Frm Shld Edge) is the outside edge of the sleeve. When I was trying to decide which size to order, I measured one of my other t-shirts that fits well to see which size would be the most comparable.
If you’re interested in ordering, you can hop over to the Blog Threads website by clicking on the banner below:
Once the sale is done (tomorrow night around 10pm CST) I’ll deactivate the site so that I can tally up the order and send it off to the print shop on Friday. It usually takes about two and a half weeks to get them back from the print shop, so Kevin and I should be able to start packing them up and mailing them out around the 1st of June. I’m thinking they’ll all be delivered between June 2nd and June 9th, depending on what part of the world you live in.
Thanks for taking the time to read this far if you’re still here, and let me know if you have any other questions about the “threads”! 😀
Order placed! I can not wait! I get compliments on your shirts ALL the time! I can’t believe this is my 6th order…may be a little obsessed with them, but when you LOVE something you might as well stick with it, right! Plus, I like how they are each so unique AND they go to such a great cause!!
Thanks Layla!

Thank you, Lara! We appreciate your kind comment (and SIX orders- WOW!) so much! One day, we’ll tell Sweet P how so many encouraging folks helped us bring him home. 🙂 XO
I always love your shirts – so cute with awesome messages. I’m so glad you get to go back and love your boy soon. I can’t imagine how much you miss him now that you’ve been able to meet him in person.
Thank you, Angie! We sure do miss him. Can’t wait to have him in my arms again! 😀
Hi Layla! Do all of the shirts on your Blog Threads page go toward supporting your and the other family’s next trip, or just the “Breathe it all in” shirt? I’m trying to decide between the “Breathe” shirt and the “Adventure” shirt and that would make the decision easier if only one was helping this time around. Thanks!
Can these still be ordered? I looked at the site and it looks there like we can. Just wondering.
Hi! Yep- the sale ends tonight at 10pm. Thank you for asking! 🙂
I’m pretty new to the online world..was pretty nervous about it actually, however, it’s blogs like yours that remind me that I’m on the right path. I have enjoyed all of your posts…but my heart strings get pulled reading about your Sweet P. Looking forward to my May tee-shirt
I’m so sorry that I missed ordering a shirt this time around. I saw from work that they were for sale, but forgot to get online once I got home. They are my favorite t-shirts. And I’m sorry that I wasn’t able to help support your trip. Next time I’ll have to pin a note to my forehead.
oh no! i was out of town and totally missed ordering this shirt. any possible way to squeeze one more in?
