Spring has sprung...hasn't it?

The weather is finally warming up and it looks a little more promising that it is finally here to stay! I've been busy making a ton of fun new things, I just haven't shared them...its better than not making them at all right? Let's start with skirts, who doesn't love a fun skirt at any age?

New Year, New Items!!

Well, another year has come and gone and with that being said, I have decided to make one of my goals to introduce many new items. I need to spark my creativity, instead of just restocking. So, we will see where this goes, but for now I have some new barettes to show. These are some of the first that I have made, but I love how they turned out. These are made from wool felt and handstiched for a unique one of a kind look. I have listed these in my Etsy shop as a set, 2 sets actually. The one pic of Beatty is just to show hers in her hair, she always moves! I swear we have no good pics of that baby!

Custom Onesie

Recently a lady contacted me through Etsy and asked if I could make a onesie to match a pair of shoes that she was giving as a gift. The shoes to start out with were totally adorable, which made this even more fun. I love to do things like this, something in me loves the challenge. So, here is the link to the for the shoes...they are all cute and very reasonable.

and there is the onesie...she also wanted the little girls name on it as well. What a thoughtful, unique gift!

Very Shabby Baby!

Love this set! I think it turned out so shabby chic. Sometimes it is so hard for me not to be so matchy, matchy! However, I love the outcome when I make myself stop! This set is a custom order, and she wanted a patchworky quilt in pinks and a personalized bib and burp with onesie to match. I hope she likes the way it turned out. In my opinion, THIS is the perfect baby gift! HA!

Give a Hoot!

I love this fabric with the cute little owls on it. It is a super soft flannel and a comfy lap tee. I think this is great for a fall baby boy or girl. Can be made up to 12 months as well. Perfect for an outfit, or pajamas. Love it!! Lucky you, I just listed it on my Etsy!

Back from a busy break...

Sharp Dressed Man: $8 (man not included)

I finished with the 10 day long Covered Bridge Festival , finished all the orders the following week and have been very slow moving since then. I have some orders I am working on right now, but definitely not at my normal rate. It's been very hard to get motivated and back into the swing of things! Gotta do it though....holiday shows are approaching...

Here is one of the newest from the Paisley Moon. These are so adorable, completely reversible and great for instant success on any little man. I call them sharp dressed mans and they are all $8 each. These snappy ties are great for that holiday photo, or any occasion where a little class is needed. Maddix wore his for his Halloween outfit as well...Afred E. Newman. He knocked his tooth out last year, so it fit him just perfect.

Recently I came across a blog from a mother. An amazing mother. A mother named Nie Nie or Stephanie Nielson. Her blog is no more than of her life as a mother, and it is the most inspiring blog I've yet to read. On August 16th, Nie and her husband were in a terrible private plane crash that claimed the life of the pilot and left them critically burned. Stephanie over 80% of her body. They are the parents of 4 adorable children. Please follow the buttons on the left of my blog to read more about this truly amazing story. On September 23 and 24, Etsy will be hosting a Nie Sale. ALL proceeds will go to Stephanie and Christian Nielson and their family. These are the items that I chose to donate. If you are interested in them, I encourage you to purchase them through this event. It is really a great cause!! Thank you so much...thank you!

p.s. as always my photos leave alot to be desired.
