Bibocks...It's a bib. It's a smock. It's a Bibock!

We're proud to introduce you to Rev. Sheila Andreana Sewall M.Ed...a very talented and giving member of our women inventor community.  Sheila is an inventor of several products, but she is best known for creating Bibocks...It's a bib. It's a smock. It's a Bibock!


"Once upon a time, we were using dish towels that didn't protect our Master and Mademoiselle from the gookie stuff...

We had an epiphany while taking a walk while our porridge cooled. Lets create something that has never been done before!

That was good, but how could we go even further into the uncharted territory of quality and ingenuity...

Now, the mice stay up late to offer the finest Bibocks with Lapkins and vintage aprons on the market. Patented and patent pending.

Special occasion aprons, imaged in our beloved children's book, Saving Up Smiles for a Rainy day, were used to create our signature, organic, medicinal, Honey Rose Caramels."

The Bibock is featured on
Good Day Sacramento...



In Sheila's own words...
Author of Saving Up Smiles for a Rainy Day
I am the author of the Midwest Book Award winning children's book, Saving Up Smiles for a Rainy Day and the owner/inventor and designer of a small business entitled The Bibocks with Lapkins Company. We specialize in Bibocks with Lapkins. It's a bib. It's a smock. It's a Bibock! Charming, handcrafted, limited edition form follows function bibs, with Lapkins to cover the lap. Lapkins promote good manners, and may be removed and used as a washcloth for little hands and faces after a repast or creative craft project. They are of heirloom quality. Patented and patent pending.

We also feature vintage, special occasion Apronafores, adult and special need bibs, and other innovative, care products.

Apronafores- Aprons- Pinafores
New -prayer pouches and treasury purses will be featured in their own shop, www.SavingUpSmiles.Etsy.com  We offer two sizes. The pouches are sized 5x7 and 12x14 inches. The 12x14 will fit our Saving Up Smiles for a Rainy Day children's book for a lovely gift. The prayer pouches and treasury purses will come with an uplifting message and a prayer cloth. The cloth can be held in the hands or placed over the heart and used to weave in prayers or well wishes for a special celebration, Make a Wish Kid, or hospice loved one. The cloth can be put underneath the pillow or left in the pocket of the beloved. The energy of these powerful intentions remain with the loved one. The pouches and purses would also be appropriate for a child going to camp or on their first overnight away from home. It holds their found treasures. These elegant bags are fully lined and may also be used as a beautiful table topper filled with our organic, Honey Rose Caramels for a wedding or gala affair.


Prayer pouches and treasury purses
I think the prayer pouches and treasury purses belong with a large organization such as, Make a Wish Kids or a children's hospital. I believe the large sized prayer pouch filled with Saving Up Smiles for a Rainy Day should be part of the child's entrance to the center and should be placed on their pillow as part of their check in.

We would like to bring our organic, no refined sugar, handcrafted caramels to market as part of my idea for a very special and unique healthy bakery. This idea is too big to create alone and I will not offer all the details here, but would love to have a business partner help bring this to fruition. I created this all natural caramel with organic medicinal qualities to offer a healthy treat for my children. They are transformative and delicious! I make sure there is some on hand during cold and sore throat season. The prayer pouches and treasury purses filled with organic Honey Rose Caramels would be an elegant table top party favor for a wedding or special occasion. All of our products and book are meant to complement and support each other and would  come together wonderfully in our bakery. The Bibocks with Lapkins Company is interviewing potential sharks (angel investors) for mass marketing potential. All interested parties are encouraged to contact us.

About Sheila...
In life and via her creations, Sheila Andreana Sewall combines the love of dance, creation, and the narrative of teaching with the desire to give back peace and blessings. Sewall has a B.S. in applied design and visual communications and a MEd. of family education from the University of Minnesota.

Unable to find anything in the marketplace that met qualifications, "need is the mother of invention," the inspiration to create form follows function designs was birthed via her children. At the time, her two year old son, the wise master, pronounced them Bibocks... It's a bib. It's a smock. It's a Bibock! The name Lapkins was her husband's two cents. Lapkins cover the lap, promote good manners, and may be used as a washcloth for little hands and faces after a repast. Bibocks with Lapkins, charming, handmade, form follows function bibs was born.

Sheila Andreana loves to combine unexpected elements into a synthesized whole. If she can combine burlap and silk and lead you to believe they are married together, she will try. She loves the texture of life. The full spectrum of rainbow colors and experiences informs a sensual perspective. Sources of inspiration include: Spirit infused, natural (can't drink hot beverages from a styrofoam cup), organic elements in nature, the artistic use of light, staging, and costuming in old movies (before the overuse of quick camera cuts, explosives, and high drama), vintage artifacts, the creative stories derived from found objects by little people, Grace felt in the stillness of midnight, the edge of forever experienced through dance, and the deep stirring of motherly love as she stands in the presence her children.


Bibocks also embodies the loving essence of Grandmother Francis. Grandma Franny cooked and baked with only the use of a wood stove. Even on the hottest of days, one would bound through the porch, the screen door slamming behind, and enter the kitchen to be greeted with the unmistakable smell of a long morning's hard work. This simple woman in dress and possessions, but rich in humor and tacit knowledge, knew how to make bread and pie crust based on the texture alone between her fingers. After a three giggle hug, and "an oh my you shouldn't have!" she would beckon all to sit and talk around the table brimming with the nature and nurture of love in the form of favorite fresh baked goodies.

* Sheila Andreana is also the author of the Midwest Book Award winning children's book, Saving Up Smiles for a Rainy Day.

Book Reviews:

This Midwest Independent Publishers Association book winner is a home run in every aspect. The cover is colorful and inviting.  The book is printed on a high quality 100 pound gloss paper so the pages are not flimsy, but able to be read over and over and turned by small hands.
The story combines a love of dance and creation all while teaching about peace and blessings.  The rhythm and rhyme throughout the book make for a fun and light-hearted read.  Following the mother who is speaking to her child about remembering others as well as occasions touches your heart in ways that cannot be described.  Through out the book, you cannot help but remember those that have touched your life.  You are also invited to remember moments of fun and wonder, remembering sunny days and delightful memories.  This book would make a great Mother's Day, new birth or baby shower gift.  It's bound to become a classic much like "Good Night Moon." -Angela Addington, Managing Editor for Mom-Spot.com

" Dear child, we can save up smiles for a rainy day to fill our hearts with love and joy when the sun has gone away." 


In this book the children are invited to remember the people who have brought love and joy into their lives; to remember moments of fun and wonder; to bring the memories of sunny days and nature's delights into the moment. It is a lovely reminder that the very act of remembering moments of love and joy lightens the heart and changes our energy, bringing back feelings of hope and promise. The author suggests that this book makes a wonderful gift for cancer survivors, new baby or baby showers, or anyone going through a transition or life transformation. I would suggest that it could be used in children's ministry for your quiet corner to support the concept of creating heart coherence or for a lesson on looking for the good. Check it out.

Saving Up Smiles for a Rainy Day is an inspiring, real-life story of transformation.

The book is available at www.BeaversPondBooks.com, Amazon and
all regular outlets and bookstores.

Loopeez Featured on Good Day Sacramento as an Amazing Back To School Product for Preschoolers!



Loopeez was featured on Good Day Sacramento by the fabulous Julissa Ortiz as an amazing Back to School product for preschoolers!!!  


Loopeez "shoe tying aids" are the ORIGINAL, Award Winning Shoe Tying Aid created by me, mom of three, Courtney Maslow. Back in 2008 when I was teaching my daughter to tie shoes she couldn't hold the "loops" in place and complete the bow. There were no products that taught directly on the shoe and I knew there had to be a better way. Once I figured out the prototype my daughter and her friends were tying in minutes! Parents, doctors and teachers were amazed at how fast Loopeez worked! Loopeez are the only product to teach directly on the child's own shoe and teach BOTH methods of tying. I also created specially designed BI COLOR laces that help kids see the left/right lace.
 
 

Kids learn to tie in minutes!
So many great styles can be found on their website!
Click here to purchase Loopeez!

Stay tuned for the other products to be featured and where you can purchase them.  All products can be found on the Women Inventorz Network!

Women Invented Products for Summertime Fun!

Products from the Women Inventorz Network were featured on Good Day Sacramento as great buys for summertime fun!!!  The hilarious Julissa Ortiz, who is passionate about women invented products, demonstrates these fab inventions for all ages...



Created by: Kathlene Marden


The Beach Clip is extremely durable plastic that firmly holds your towel or blanket to your lounge chair.  Simply clip over the top of the chair and rest easy. They are excellent for cruises, beach, pool or boating and are handy to hang your towel to dry.  The Beach Clips can be purchased in pink, orange, red, purple, blue, fluorescent yellow and fluorescent green.  We are certified with WBENC with a patent pending.  
In 2008, Kathlene found herself fighting my towel while sitting in a lounge chair by a hotel swimming pool.  As she looked around, she saw that most of the other guests experienced this same issue with their towels.  She tried a hair clip and several other devices on that two-week vacation and none of them could hold the towel without breaking.  After she returned home, she designed The Beach Clip.

The Beach Clip is currently Patent Pending.  The entire product is made in the USA and the company was created in 2012.

Our mission is simple: to provide the best product and service to our customers at the lowest prices possible. We take great pride in our company, our commitment to customer service and in the products we sell. Our online store is designed to provide you with a safe and secure environment to browse our product catalog.

Hello Beach is a new unique problem solving summer product for both kids and adults. My kids love collecting seashells, but wet, sandy shells, left in plastic buckets in the hot summer sun or car create a awful smell that you won't want to bring home. Our darling treasures bag is unique for little fingers to collect their cherished collections without stinky, sandy buckets of wet shells to lug back home. Our bags are perfect for exploring coastal shores collecting treasures or rocks along seaside or lake and fosters creative exploration! Its unique mesh bottom allows for the sand to sift out and can be rinsed directly in the ocean. Little ones will find beachcombing even more fun with their own "official" shell collecting bag! Our larger tote is perfect for drying out bathing suits!

What makes our tote different?
The top half is 100 cotton, while the bottom half is made of durable woven mesh. The larger size holds towels, toys & more. Shake or rinse and sand stays at the beach. The kidís size bag will be their official shell (or treasures) collecting bag! Both styles are also great for collecting sea glass or drift wood. With the bottom made of mesh, kids can rinse the sand right off their shells themselves, while keeping their treasures inside.

Created by a mom and hand sewn in the USA!  Eco-friendly and Reusable.

Love the Beach Not the Sand - Sand Gone is your answer.  Sand Gone is a dry powder that when applied to sandy parts of your body removes the sand leaving your skin soft and smooth. Sand Gone comes in an 8oz container with a powder puff for easy application, all natural with a hint of coconut. Sand Gone works on both wet and dry skin it's like a dry dry shower when you’re done with the beach.  A must for beachgoers!

Have your nails look great for the beach!!!

What it is:
A liquid, paint-on barrier that covers and protects fingernail cuticles from polish mishaps. (You peel off after you polish!)

What is it formulated to do:
Liquid Palisade provides an easy-to-apply protective barrier that covers the cuticles during nail polish application. It keeps the cuticle free of nail polish color. It dries quickly before you polish, peels off easily after you polish, and guarantees a perfect color line around cuticle after each use.

What else you need to know:
Liquid Palisade also creates the perfect French Manicure or custom nail art design. Apply Liquid Palisade to nail where you do NOT want polish. Apply polish as usual. Peel off Liquid Palisade revealing desired french-tip or nail art pattern.

IceHuggy is an insulated sleeve designed to work with freeze pops, yogurt sticks, electrolyte pops and sore throat coolers.  With its patented feature, IceHuggy transforms to fit a variety of sizes.

IceHuggy allows you to save on paper towels, while keeping your treats frozen and not your fingers!  The design allows IceHuggy to transform using the "Flip-Fold-Fasten" feature to accommodate different length treats.  The fabric allows IceHuggy to stretch for the different widths of freeze pops and yogurt sticks.  The fabric also acts like a sponge, so when that little two year old leaves his freeze pop on the coffee table it soaks it right up for easy cleaning!

IceHuggy is machine washable and environmentally friendly.  The NRDC estimates that if every household in the US would use one less roll of paper towel, we could save 544,000 trees...or 571,230,000 pounds of paper!!

Created and designed by a mother of six, IceHuggy has been kid tested and mother approved, as well as CPSIA safety tested.  IceHuggy has been featured on the Food Network Channel and has been awarded the coveted Next Big Zing Award for 2011.

There are few products on the market that will allow a person to be able to relax, read, or sunbathe while lying in the prone position or versatile enough to also be used face up, as a chair or meditation cushion, a table tray or as a kickboard  or float in the water. The multi-functional Sphinx™ media holder has a strap that holds book pages open or secures a Kindle, has a cup holder and is also a small cooler for snacks or a storage place that can be used for your keys, sunglasses and cell phone.

Women Invented Products Showcased on Good Day Sacramento

The Women Inventorz Network was so honored to be given the opportunity to share some of the amazing inventions in our community of women inventors on Good Day Sacramento.  Here are the products that were actually showcased on the show and where you can buy them:


A tireless search amongst ordinary and overused patterns left Elonka empty handed for that perfect décor to compliment her infant son's room. This void sparked a creative mission to design unique and tasteful selections; the kind of item you buy for that special little person or grown-up in your life! A small personal line fulfilled that void and when word got out, she went from giving her creations as gifts to taking orders.

Her design goal from the beginning has been to craft quality pieces, research and source the best materials to offer customers high-end merchandise at affordable prices. Designing beyond the ordinary to extraordinary!




Meri Cherry, an elementary school teacher in Los Angeles, California, was tired of seeing her students come to school in t-shirts that said "I'm a spoiled brat" and other negative phrases.  She knew, if given the chance, the youth of today would come up with great ideas for t-shirts that were positive and full of energy and fun, just like the students in her class.  A few months later, VeryMeri was born.  Meri's idea was simple,  leave the designing to the kids while giving back to the community.

Show everyone what you would want to see on a t-shirt. You are only limited to your imagination! It can be anything from words, characters, shapes and colors or a mix of everything! Let the world see what you would wear! 



The Q-Redew is a handheld hair steamer that quickly restores moisture, rejuvenates and reshapes hair using warm steam as mist. Used on dry hair it revives in minutes and leaves
hair dry.  Q-Redew was created  by a curly girl for wavy/curly/kinky coily hair, so she understands what curly hair needs!!!



Drink Duets
Drink Duets  are soft, reusable, waterproof  Bottle Tags that Keep you and your Drink Together!
 Slip a colored tag over the neck of your water bottle and you'll be able to keep track of your drink. They come with  12 different color tags to a package. The tags can also be written on or decorated if having different colors isn't enough to differentiate.  Great in the beach cooler, for parties and on the sports field!
The Result:  saving money on bottled drinks, saving time and trips to the grocery store, and no more spreading of germs by accidentally sharing bottles. 

And Drink Duets Glass Skirts  perfectly complement  the Bottle Tags for casual entertaining. They wrap  around the stem of a wine glass and come with  8  different colors in each package.  The big bright colors make it easy to remember which drink is yours!



SwaggerTags are identification tags that reflect your personality and help you keep track of your gear. By customizing with your own photo, image or logo, you can let everyone know it’s your stuff. You decide what personal information to include and your SwaggerTag reveals the information only if it is opened.

A SwaggerTag is water, weather and impact resistant, with strong attachment points and ties to ensure it will stay with your gear. Available in six distinctive colours: Gekco Green, Dolphin Blue, Hot Pink, Mustang Purple, Dragon Red and Spider Grey.




Corky Koutures "Glamour Galore Collection" is a fun, glam and surprising way to gift a bottle of wine, champagne, liquor, sparkling juices, gift cards, money, jewelry & more.

3Girls Holistic believes that natural beauty is a result of a healthy and vibrant life; that health is multifaceted, and that you look your best when you feel your best! Their line of products is intended to not only nourish your skin, but your overall health as well. Because our skin is capable of absorbing up to 60% of what we put on it, they believe that you shouldn’t put anything on your skin that you wouldn’t want to have inside your body. For that reason, their entire line is 100% natural, handcrafted with either organic or wild-harvested ingredients that have been carefully selected due to demonstrated benefits that they bring to our skin. 



Have you ever tried to grab all of your grocery bags in both hands just to avoid making one more trip to your car? Or how about when you get that uncomfortable feeling that strains your hands while carrying plastic bags? With The Shopping Pal by Zoya, you’ll never have to worry about either of these things ever again! The Shopping Pal is specifically designed to help you carry up to 10 shopping bags in one hand, comfortably. It eliminates finger strain and stress. The ergonomic design makes it easy to fit conveniently in your purse or glove box. The Shopping Pal comes with an accompanying bag that zips into a small and easy to store shape. The Shopping Pal saves you multiple trips back and forth from your car to the house by allowing you to carry all of your bags at one time. If you live in a high pedestrian area or an urban environment, the Shopping Pal is also great for saving you time and trips. It locks your bags in place so if they are in your trunk and they roll around, you can just pick up the handle and all the bags will be together, you don't have to scramble around trying to get them together.





Nightmare Nibblers come from a land far, far away – a magical place where nighttime fears and nightmares simply don’t stand a chance thanks to the Nibblers’ HUGE appetite for frightening things! 

And best of all…the Nightmare Nibbler is NOT fussy when it comes to choosing what to eat! That’s great news because even if what scares you changes, your Nibbler’s appetite for them won’t! As the fun rhyming poem on the hangtag describes, they stay awake and on duty through the night protecting kids from scary things that might give them a fright!




FlopTopz are the only full-length cushioned insole designed for flip flops and sandals.  FlopTopz add cushioning, renews tattered insoles and adds a fashionable touch to your summer shoes!  They are made from a recycled foam, covered in a slip-resistant fabric and are moisture wicking, odor absorbing and anti-microbial.  FlopTopz ECO comes in 3 sizes and 8 patterns...everyone will find their favorite style whether it's bright and fun or simply a solid to go incognito!  "Save your Soles" today!
