Part of Balian's 2nd Birthday Bash

Every parent wants to make their child's birthday incredibly special. This year, Balian will celebrate his birthday with one of his favorite characters- The Cat in the Hat. He loves the kooky cat so much, that he asks for him as soon as he wakes in the morning! I thought that it would be incredibly special for Balian to have a designated birthday shirt to wear on his big day. There are lots of ways a parent could go in selecting a personalized birthday shirt for their little one- so many cute designs! However, when I came across Inspired Inceptions, I knew that the perfect birthday shirt was right before my eyes.

Amy Hancock is a full time wife and mom, and owns Inspired Inceptions, an adorable boutique on Etsy, offering personalized heat-pressed shirts, invitations, prints on canvas, and more! I connected with Amy and she was delighted to create a very special birthday shirt, just for Balian, keeping with our The Cat in the Hat party theme! Of course, I was excited to see Amy's work in person, and I knew Balian would be excited to see his birthday boy shirt!

This cute stamp was on our package from Inspired Inceptions! Love it!

Cute as a button design and shirt for the special birthday boy!


Amy was absolutely delightful to work with. She had the shirt made and sent out to us within days of my initial inquiry. The shirt arrived nice and crisp, protected by tissue paper, and with a lovely business postcard.

I love the classic Cat in the Hat shown on this shirt! Cat is one of the very first characters that Balian recognized, and he still loves him so today! Now just to be clear, all of the designs you see in the Inspired Inceptions shop are developed/designed by Inspired Inceptions! These are not designs that you are going to find duplicated anywhere else. Balian looks adorable in this shirt! I had to let him try it on, and then I packed it away, because I wanted it to remain nice and clean, so he could wear it on his birthday, which was yesterday. Balian spent the day admiring his shirt, and just having a ball in it!

Our friends and family got a big kick out of his Cat in the Hat Birthday Shirt... and when he wears it for his big birthday party, coming up in a few days, everyone else will love it, too!

This shirt is available in lots of different sizes- from newborn to youth large, and in a onesie, short sleeves or long sleeves. Amy is quite talented and will work with you if you need different colors to match a specific theme. If you don't see the character you're looking for, just let Amy know what you'd like to see, and she'll do her best to make it happen!

Balian feels so special in his shirt! 
I love the font Amy used to personalize the shirt, with Balian's name!


To us, everything about the design on the shirt from Inspired Inceptions, was perfect- from the character to the colors and the little details like the dots! The cozy cotton t-shirt fits a little loosely, which is great, because that means that Balian will be able to wear it again and again! I have not washed this shirt yet, but I will wash it inside out, and I will just lay it flat to dry. I don't like to take any chances on any shirt that has been created for my sweetie.

Of course, you're going to love all of the other designs over at Inspired Inceptions. I mean, there are only 120+ to choose from! Decisions, decisions!
