We’re absolutely flattered to be endorsed recently by two of the media’s most influential parenting venues, blush Magazine and MomFinds.com.
Blush Magazine just named WallCandy Arts CEO Allison Krongard one of its “Featured Mompreneurs,” and as a busy dad, I really appreciated how she tackled their question about the ongoing challenge of finding the right work-life balance:
Allison: “When I’m with the kids, I turn off my phone and computer. I try to give them quality mom time by being present. For example, I make it a point to talk to each of them privately every day. Instead of reading to them at night, I rub their feet before they nod off. It provides us with the same intimacy as reading in bed but they’ll talk in a relaxed state instead of just listening. It’s too hard to get any real scoop out of them after school before tennis or play dates. My pediatrician gave me the idea last year and it’s become a treasured ritual.”
“Also, since my husband has a flexible schedule, we often go out to breakfast together after dropping the kids off at school. This gives me the rest of the day to work but also the comfort of having made a connection with him.”

And Momfinds.com, the popular parenting shopping guide, just named WallCandy Arts removable wall stickers their “Find of the Day.”
Momfinds expressed high regards for the latest offerings off the WallCandy press. They say that our Race Me car decals will “satisfy every little boy’s need for speed.” And they kindly recommend our Sweet Dreams Fairies as a “sweet deal.”

My friend has a little boy who loves hurricanes and tornadoes, volcanoes and shipwrecks. He is the fantasy demographic of The Weather Channel and National Geographic. Whenever I see a TV special I know this boy will love — or an educational toy — I email his father. This week he’s enthralled by the sinking of the Titanic and next week it might be Iceland’s sputtering volcano that’s powerful enough to stop airplanes.
Whatever the fascination, I keep my eye out for his favorite stuff. That’s what friends do for friends. And parents do for other parents.
So I am absolutely thrilled that WallCandy Arts has just added a Facebook “Like” button and a Twitter sharing button on all of its products. It’s just like if you are in a cool store, the kind that doesn’t just sell that mass-marketed stuff that every place has, and you see something you JUST KNOW your friends will like. You rummage through your wallet for the back of a business card to scrawl down the Website to look up later and then email to them.
Well, when you are window shopping from home and the computer screen is your window, one click will share everything you want to share. Your favorite removable chalkboard decals, your favorite erasable whiteboard decals and your favorite glow-in-the-dark decals!
These Facebook and Twitter buttons are even ideal if YOU want to drop hints to your friends and relatives about what might look fantastic in the baby’s room or your son and daughter’s room when they go through their next phase.
And speaking of phases, if your son happens to be into race cars right now, he’ll surely love these new Race-Me designs that bring the racetrack right into the bedroom. More details to come, but here’s a sneak peek!
Race-Me car decals hit the ground running on May 12!
