Karen sent us an email: "Do you have any links for replacement covers for car seats?
We have the basic Evenflo Triumph and the pads are looking pretty ratty, especially where their feet and legs rub the front. Plus, they're pretty ugly.
Any ideas? And we have twins, so we have no time to make our own!"
Good question, Karen.
The Shopping Cart Cover Store offers custom made toddler car seat covers. You choose the fabric (even organic fabrics) and they make it according to your specifications. Covers start at $39.99.
High-end covers at Pink Taffy Designs, by Nollie Covers, start at $199 (which is almost the same price as a new car seat). Apparently, they are celeb favorites.
Do you any suggestions for Karen?

On the website, www.egiggle.com, there's a really cute infant car seat cover on sale for $39.99 from $78 (click on the sale portion of the website to link to the Loll infant car cover). You might want to phone and find out more details - plus see if they have two, a selection of colors, etc! I'm also a twin mom, and it's also worth seeing if they offer any additional discounts for twins. There are many retailers who recognize the financial burden of getting doubles of everything, so it's always worth asking. I wouldn't spend too much money, though, since you'll be out of those and onto a regular car seat in a short period of time. Good luck in your search!
